The Star Actress That Almost Got Away Ft Genoveva Umeh

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 7 ก.พ. 2025
- We know her as 'Timeyin' in Blood Sisters and 'Zina' in Far From Home; and undoubtedly, as a fantastic actress. But on this episode of Tea With Tay, Nigerian TV star, Genoveva Umeh opens up on how a conviction that acting was nothing more than a hobby, had compelled her to shelve her passion for law. With one AMVCA nomination under her belt and an impressive portfolio working with Netflix and Showmax as proof that she's the IT girl, Gen takes us behind the glitz, glamour and posh British accent to her childhood in Enugu, her move to Britain and how the movie industry almost lost her to a life in Law. This episode is proof that overnight successes are a myth as Gen runs us through her days before the fame when she hustled endlessly, as a Primark attendant, a budding actress and an IJBG.
If you're in need of a sign to strive for more and never give up, dive in for a full dose of inspiration and enjoy!

I honestly try to understand our older parents, for them they want a secure path for us and for them professional courses was what they thought about, but I am glad they understand better now.

bro interview Arya Starr
Love the fact that your podcast is not about sex 👍
So we shouldn't have sex education again?
We know who you referring to and Yes! Different channels, different content.
Let the people who need to be sexually aware,find and digest their content in peace.
I wonder why she is heavy on the funk accent thing in this interview. All the same nice acting. I'd pick a thing or two from it.
She grew up in the UK, so it’s only normal she speaks that way.
🤍💕🤍🤍🤍💕🤍
Interesting session.. Please what academy is she talking about?
Ebonylife creative academy, Lagos Nigeria 😊
@@GENUMEH ok thanks ma'am
