Can You Have S*x On Your First Date? Check Out What Actress, Debbie Shokoya Has To Say About This

Talented actress, Debbie Shokoya is an interviewer’s delight. She doesn’t shy away from fielding questions bordering on any issue, be it career, romance or sex.
In this chat, she bares it all. Please enjoy it.
Can you give an insight into your growing up?
My name is Deborah Shokoya popularly known as
Debbie. I am from Ijebu Remo in Ogun State. I
attended my primary and secondary schools in Lagos,
and proceeded to The Polytechnic Ibadan where I
studied Public Administration. My growing up was
fun, and a little bit strict because I have a very strict
father, a disciplinarian, who would let you know that
you can’t just be there playing, you have to be
engaged with one work or the other at a particular
time. I was born into a family of 10 children and I am
the 8th. Sincerely, my growing up was so amazing
that if you misbehaved, you had everyone, old and
young scolding you. I love the fact that I came from
that kind of home. It restricted me in a kind of way
and it has really helped me in my career. My mother
is a woman of style and dignity. She would always
tell you not to ever get intimidated, and that is it. So,
my growing up played a major role in who I am
today.
What is special about you?
I love uncommon things… from my clothes to my
shoes, and every other thing. I don’t like when
something is common. I don’t like when you can
predict something or come across it anyhow. It
should be something that is rare, unique, different
and unusual. That is what I stand for. I am unusual. I
am sure that part of me is so special. You can’t
predict me, because the moment you do, I get myself
more complicated. I want to go far from what you
can think of and that makes people want to know
me more. They are always like, ‘who is she?’
How did you come into acting?
I came into acting some years back. Acting has been
something I so much love. I remember back then, I
could go to every video club in my area to get the
latest movies, especially Yoruba movies. I got so
addicted to them at that time. So, it got into me that
I became so dramatic. But I am still that shy girl that
won’t want to come out. I love giving directives than
leading the scene, but as fate would have it, I joined
a movie caucus called ‘Creative Man’ owned by John
Olakunle Da’silva, and I got trained and kept pushing
all by myself till date.
What is the role that brought you into the limelight?
The role that brought me into the limelight was the
one I played with Ibrahim Chatta, Tunde
Owokoniran, Dele Odunle and Peju Ogunmola. In the
movie, Aye Loja, I played a very sharp mouth and
sensitive baby of the house. I emerged the second
best character, so that was the movie that made
people to notice me.
This minute you are all posh and sophisticated, the
next minute you appear street and razz. How are you
so comfortable switching personality?
I sincerely don’t know. But all I know is that I love
what I do. When I am ready to be dramatic, I go all
the way.
Who are your mentors in the industry?
I will always pick Ibrahim Chatta. And I am very sure
if you ask any of my contemporaries in the industry,
they will say this same thing about him. He is super
amazing. He’s never selfish with knowledge; he’s
always ready to put you through. I remember my
first day on set alongside veteran actors, Dele Odunle
and Peju Ogunmola; I was all shaking. The next thing
Uncle Ibrahim (Chatta) said was ‘Deborah, hold your
peace and do it like you’re being your normal self.
These people that got you fidgeting are all here to
deliver their roles like you’. And boom! Immediately
that got into me, I started taking my roles normally,
without fear. Another mentor of mine is Richard
Mofe-Damijo (RMD). He is so timeless in his craft.
Again, I will choose Toyin Abraham for always
putting all her energy into her work, and then Funke
Akindele-Bello.
Would you take fame over money or money over
fame?
For me, it’s money any day. If you have money, fame
will follow. In fact, with money you don’t need to buy
fame, it will come automatically. Even people you
don’t know will want to attach themselves to you.
So, I will always pick money over fame.
What’s the secret of your good skin?
The secret is my brand, my skincare line, Stay Natural
by DBS. It’s a natural product that makes your skin go
all popping and yummy. I don’t bleach, because at
the end of it all, you are going to damage your skin;
and when it’s damaged, it can never be the same
again. So, I do natural stuff that makes my skin
colour glow.
Is Debbie taken?
I am not taken! I believe when I am married that is
when I am taken. I am not engaged either, but that’s
not to say I am single because I am in a relationship.
However, I am still single… until the person gives me
a ring; so whoever wants to come can slid into my
DM or whatever. If you pass, why not, I am not
taken.
What is your parents’ reaction to your acting career?
Sincerely, my father wasn’t in support of it at all. Also,
my siblings were not in support; my mum was the
only one that stood by me. She saw how passionate
I was about it and she gave me all her support. Till
date, she has always been my number one fan.
Anytime I go on location, she wants to know
everything; the role allocated to me, and all; even as
old as I am. My mum loves this movie world of a
thing.
Have you any regret?
I have no regret. Sincerely no! Absolutely no regret. I
snap out easily from past event and move on as if it
never happened. I try as much as I can to keep
away negative vibes. I am positive in all what I do.
Do you act under any influence?
I hear some people act under the influence of alcohol
and they do really well. But I will never think of that
because if I do, I will just scatter the set and beat up
the director. Honestly, I don’t act under anything at
all, not even juice.
