Nollywood actress and producer Funke Akindele has expressed worries over the ‘baddies’ trend among girls in social media.
The world-record-breaking director expressed concern about the “so-called baddies” because they need to be more than just social media models showing off their attractive bodies and opulent lifestyles.
In a recent interview with Arise TV, Akindele stressed the need for content producers to educate their audience in addition to providing them with entertainment.
She also cautioned followers to be careful about the content they watch.
“I enjoy watching beautiful content, but you have to watch what you churn out. You need to focus on your brand, what you’re selling, what you want people to learn from you,” Akindele said.
“If you’re an actor, a self-made person, what are you churning out? You must influence lives positively with the content you churn out. And for you that are watching content, are you watching to be entertained, to learn? ‘A’ is carrying designer bag and showing you on video, how sure are you that’s she’s not borrowing the bag? How sure are you she’s rich? Don’t believe everything on social media.
“I’m so worried about these so-called baddies. A baddie without showcasing what you have upstairs? We need to know what you are doing, what positive content you are doing that people would be proud of. Give us that on the table. Yes, it’s good to showcase fashion. But what do you have upstairs to show us? Are you just a baddie for mouth? Even is you are a dancer, what else do you have?”
