Yahoo highlights Omotola’s profile and achievements in Nollywood. Below is how she was described:
“We’ll wager not only have you not heard of Omotola Jalade Ekeinde – or ‘Omosexy’ as her fans call her – but we reckon you probably haven’t even heard of the industry she spearheads: Nollywood.
“Yes, that’s Nigeria’s version of Hollywood, in which Omosexy dominates – she has over 300 film credits to her name (although most go straight to video).
“In her homeland, she’s like a cross between Oprah Winfrey and Kim Kardashian, with her own reality TV series following her and her family. Though it’s nigh on impossible to determine what her box-office total is, given that the Nigerian film industry is mostly one that distributes through market stalls and street corners, it is estimated to be worth upwards of  N89 billion (£320 million) a year – and Omosexy is a Nollywood cornerstone.”
