Nollywood actor, IK Ogbonna, has advised colleagues who care so much about their physical appearance, to prioritise personal development, intelligence and good character.
In a post shared on his social media page, Saturday Beats notes that the actor urged them to work on themselves to the extent that their beauty and physical attractiveness would become the least interesting things about them.
He said, “Work on yourself to the point where your beauty and good looks are the least interesting things about you. Build your mind, develop your character, sharpen your intelligence, and increase your value.”
“Walk into a room and let people be more interested in what you bring to the table than how they can get their hands on your body. Be attractive, but be so much more than an object of sexual desire.”
The actor also noted that while physical attractiveness could draw attention, personal substance, character and intelligence were what earned lasting admiration and respect.
