Asked if she would be making a transition to Hollywood, Amata said that she would consider roles in Hollywood movies but her preference was to Nollywood. “No one can tell the Africa story like Africans can and African stories are so unique that they can never be replaced by any Hollywood story.”

Sophisticated and poised, the former beauty queen has also dedicated herself to telling the stories of young women in Nigeria and the struggles they persevere. To the aspiring actresses she inspires, she simply says, “Stay true to who you are.”

Uduak Oduok

Meet Uduak Oduok- a lawyer, entrepreneur, a writer and model. She does it all. Born in Nigeria and raised in the US, Ms. Oduok describes herself as a child of the 80’s. Her passion for law came from a story she read about a Yoruba girl who was wrongly accused of a crime with no one to defend her. Oduok decided then that she would become a lawyer and use the law to exonerate those who were wrongly accused. At a young age her mother moved her and her siblings to the United States and, longing for home, Oduok started scrapbooking and writing to her friends back in Nigeria. The name of her magazine, Ladybrille, was born from this period in her life.

As she pursued a career in law Oduok also became a model and blogger. Her objective was to examine the polarity of African models. At home, the models are considered to be too thin, and abroad, they are not thin enough. After 14 years of experience in the fashion world, Oduok founded Ladybrille. As a journalist Oduak has interviewed designers Vivienne Westwood, Jason Wu, Ozwald Boateng and Donna Karan. She also profiled hip-hop mogul Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, supermodels Beverly Johnson and Naomi Campbell, coMedian Mo’Nique, and India’s Sabayasahci Mukherjee. Currently she is working on a book on copyright law in Nigeria. In the book she hopes to explore Music law and its associated copyright laws in the industry.

On her prolific and diverse career Oduok credits “self-discipline and a great support system.” But most importantly Oduak credits her success to her mother who provided an example of strong womanhood. “It is never about me,” she says. Oduok urges her admirers to “learn the freedom in being self-disciplined, be honest with yourself, be honest with your community, have confidence in yourself, and know the value of giving back.”
