The phenomenal actress, Nse Ikpe Etim was a guest at the Pulse TV Studios where she spoke on celebrities being termed 'role models' by the society, thus expected to be perfect and flawless.
" I do not think any celebrity is a role model, my role model is my mother. I think that the family unit is where you should get everything you want.

What I am is being me. It is not the truth to say that if I'm a saint in a movie, then I will be a saint in real life, that would be a far cry, wouldn't it? (laughs).
And just as you are, you cannot decide 'Oh, I'm going to follow Nse all my life and Nse has to show me the way, how? na me born you? "
