Actress,
Toyin Abraham is ready to go into a relationship again, but this time the
delectable actress has set a goal.
In a new
interview with Punch, she listed some of the qualities she is looking out for
which of course includes physical attributes and also a social standing. She
also spoke about her career and weight loss.
See the
excerpts:
On the man
she wants:
“I want a
man who is tall, hardworking, and loves his job. I would want to be with a man
who does not chase women and would not constantly request for money from me. If
he needs my help, I can do it. I don’t want to be with a short man. My man has
to be taller than I am.”
On weight
loss:
“Why would I
change my look because of any man when I have my job, my career, and people who
look up to me? I love my new look because it has helped my career a lot. Now I
get more roles even in the English speaking industry and most of the movies are
in the cinemas. Also my clothes fit me well. My stylist does not have to go
extra mile to make my clothes.”
On why she
changed her surname from Aimakhu to Abraham:
“Abraham is
my father’s name and it was a family decision. I cannot be talking about my
family online, it is my life. My brother who is also a famous dancer bears the
name, David Abraham. That shows that it is my father’s name. At first I thought
about my brand before changing the name but eventually, I had to change it. I
did not want to change it but my business manager asked me to do so. I know the
decision confused some of my fans but with time, they would get used to it. I
am Toyin Abraham now and I am building a new brand.”
On dealing
with controversies:
“I feel it
is normal and comes with the territory of being an actress. Based on the fact
that I am an actress, people will always tag me with something. It hurts when
they say I was in a relationship with someone I never dated or when they write
about things that I did not do and just put it out there. Sometimes I read such
write-ups and begin to wonder if I ever did those things but what will I do?
“To be great
in life, you have to be willing to be mocked, hated and misunderstood. I don’t
see criticism as anything and I am not bothered whenever I am being criticised
by the public. I know that some people would love me and others would hate me,
so I do not let that disturb me. Trust me, the criticism only makes me a better
person, so when people say negative things about me, it makes me understand
that I cannot be right every time. I thank God that I am now getting some
things right.”
