Veteran Nollywood actress, Eucharia Anunobi, has spoken about the public criticism and backlash that followed her role in the 1996 controversial movie, Glamour Girls 2.

Naija News reports that Eucharia, during a recent interview on the Honest Bunch Podcast, said some people failed to understand that her role as Anita, a wild and promiscuous escort in the movie, was not her real personality.

According to the thespian, after featuring in the movie, some people began to associate her with Anita’s personality and labelled her a ‘husband snatcher and mammy water’.

Eucharia Anunobi added that many people saw her as seductress, forgetting that she only acted a script.

The movie star revealed she was paid extra for the sizzling bathtub scene with Zack Orji in the film.

She said, “I faced a lot of backlash for my role in Glamour Girls 2. You know, at that time the Nigerian populace pretended that they don’t watch such movies. So, a lot of people were labelling me. They called me Sharon Stone, Mammy Water, Husband Snatcher.

“The character I played was a student who snatched a wealthy man from his wife. So, a lot of people were seeing me as a seductress. Well, I am very alluring.

“I can’t deny that because if I deny myself that means I am denying God. A lot of people were like that leave your man with Eucharia, she’s going to take him away. It was crazy to the point that if women see me when they are with their men, they hold them tightly.”
