Joke Silva has been in the Nigerian movie industry for decades and have made a lot of impact. She is the cover lady for Genevieve Magazine’s September edition.
The veteran actress shared a stunning pic from the magazine shoot on her Instagram page and shared a major part of her interview.
In the excerpt shared, Joke Silva advises Nigerians not to be deceived by what they see on Social Media. She explained that the glamorous lives of a lot of Nollywood stars are not paid only by what they earn from the Industry.

Joke tells us that a lot of these Stars have other sources of income:
“Don’t be deceived by what goes on on social media. Obviously, there is something else such actors are doing, perhaps other businesses to shore up their income. The reality is that on the earning capacity of an actor in Nigeria, you cannot have that sort of lifestyle in this economy. Yes, part of our industry is to have glamour but also the other part is to have reality
The 56 years old veteran Actress looks stunning and a lot younger than her age in the pictures shared.

In our interview, and amid her signature guttural laughter and deep reflections, @ajokesilva speaks very candidly about her almost four-decades-long acting career. In this interview, Joke opens up on rejection, body shaming, ageing and what she wished she knew as young actor. When asked about body shaming on the grounds of size, colour or height, she said : Of course I have lost a lot of roles, not because of my colour or body but because of my face. People find it a strange face to work with. It is not your conventional fine face and in the early years I didn’t know how to handle the face and as a result of that people found it easier to use me as a character actor. I was bothered because I was being cast for “Mama” roles. At that age I was meant to be
diverse in my role but I was already boxed in. CLICK LINK IN BIO TO DOWNLOAD DIGITAL COPY NOW! #GenevieveMagazine #GBeauty #GMagSeptemberIssue #GMagAgeIssue #GMagNewEdition #nollywood #lifestyle #fashion #style #travel
