Nigerian actress, Okechukwu Chidimma Tracy, popularly known as Tracy Edwin, has stated that the perception men have of her being a snub is ill-conceived.
She said most men who approach her often pretend not to like her at first in order to get her attention because they think she will ignore them, only to end up getting closer.
Tracy made the disclosure in an interview with Vanguard while emphasising that she despite being heavily endowed, she is not the type to give people attitude
In her words; “At first, they would pretend as if they don’t like me. But ironically, they actually like me and before you knew what was happening, they would start coming closer to me. They use this attitude to draw my attention to them. They always say ‘I don’t like her because she’s a snub. But I am not, I don’t snub people.”
The Nollywood diva recalled when she quit acting at the request of her family, in order to get married but she returned to the industry when it did not work out.
Tracy explained; “There was this guy that my family wanted me to get involved with and they didn’t want me to go into acting. So, I had to quit acting. My dad was no more and my sister was the one training me in the university then. So, I tried to see if I could cope with the situation, but I couldn’t. That was why I returned to the industry after six years.”
On how she copes with male colleagues on set, she said; “I have this personality that if you see me you will want to respect me. This is because I respect myself, so I wouldn’t want to give any man the opportunity to disrespect me. I respect everybody irrespective of who you are. First and foremost, I try to master my script very well to avoid being disrespected.”
