Actress and singer, Angela Okorie, has said she prefers to keep her relationship private because she doesn’t want the unsolicited opinions of third parties.

According to the mother of one, “Many entertainers, including me, don’t want their relationships out there. I am a very private person and I believe that once the relationship is on social media, it will break. That is why many entertainers have ‘social media in-laws’ who tell them what to do in their relationships or marriages. I advise people to only go into relationships with people they are comfortable with. It is better to study the person very well (before making a commitment).”

Speaking on her music career, she said, “I knew I was going to do music a long time ago. Whenever I record any song, I release it to my fans. My movie fans automatically turned into my music fans. That is why I seem to be gaining more listeners. I am not new in the game. This is what I have been doing for a very long time.”

Angela Okorie, had earlier said one of the most important lessons stardom has taught her is to mind her business.

She said this in recent interview, “I no longer live my normal life as a celebrity. I can no longer go on the streets to get whatever I want or do whatever I want to do. Fame has changed a lot of things about me. It has also helped me to stay on my own and mind my business.”

Okorie also maintained that she does not give room for trolls to disturb her. She said, “Whenever trolls pick on me, I pick on them back. Anything I do not want, I just handle it; and anything I do not want around me, I move it away from me.”

Responding to those who have the opinion that her adverts for beauty products are false because she is naturally light-skinned, she said, “The skincare products I am advertising right now are the ones I am using. That is why I am doing an advert for them.”

Speaking on her current projects, she said, “I have been focused on my career. I am about to release a song soon and I will be featuring a Ghanaian artiste. For the past three years, I had opportunities to feature in many movies but I wanted to concentrate on my music career because a lot of people don’t know that I sing.

“I started my career as a model. From there, I switched to acting, then music. I have lots of talents and some people don’t have that. As an entertainer, my biggest achievement is getting to this point of my career. I am doing well where I am now and that is all that matters.”
