Many Nigerians always believe that the famous stars of Nollywood spend the day studying, memorizing scripts, producing scripts, or performing stuff. Nevertheless, some of the most famous Nollywood actresses and actors have succeeded in playing their passion regularly with a job and making their lives even more fascinating.

I studied the biography of many Nollywood stars and found 12 examples of successful actresses and actors, who have often found time to handle other social occupations in addition to excellence in their careers.
