My Curves Hasn’t Given Me Special Privileges – Destiny Etiko
When Destiny Etiko lost her dad, she got a surprise visit from Pete Edochie despite the fact he hadn’t left his home since the COVID-19 pandemic. In an interview with Saturday Beats, the actress disclosed that the Nollywood legend is like a father to her even though they aren’t related. She said:
‘’I’m not related to Pete Edochie but he’s like a father to me. He shows me much fatherly love. I was told that he had not gone out since the COVID- 19 pandemic but when I told him that I had lost my father, he came to sympathise with me.”
In another part of the interview, Destiny Etiko spoke about her curves.
According to the actress, her voluptuous body hasn’t given her any special privilege in Nollywood even though it’s an added advantage. She said:
‘’Having a nice shape was not what made me popular, whether you’re sexy or not you must have content. You can’t be a star by being beautiful or fair or voluptuous. Sexiness and beauty can only make people like you but it won’t keep you there for long.
‘’My ‘sexiness’ didn’t give me any special privilege, although it’s an added advantage. Another thing that helped me is that I carry grace. When you have the grace to make it, no one can stop you. When you look around, there are some actors and actresses that are not fine but there is something about them that makes them successful.’’
