No pornography, No Nollywood – Queeneth Hilbert





As much as Queeneth Hilbert, half-Nigerian, half-Lebanese, would like to reassure you she is an average girl next door everything about her depicts something extra-ordinary. From her looks to her mannerisms, there is a touch of uniqueness that stands her out. As vulnerable as she looks, she is everything but a ‘damsel in distress’ as our readers will soon find out in this revealing chat. Often touted as one of the most beautiful girls in Nollywood, Queeneth talks about her journey into  showbiz, pornography in Nollywood and a whole lot of other issues..

How did you come about the name ‘Queeneth Hilbert’?

Queeneth Hilbert is my name. Mine is Queeneth while my surname is Hilbert. I am half Nigerian, half Lebanese.

Is that why you display the Lebanese flag on your Blackberry status?

Well, I have many Lebanese friends and many of them have the Lebanese flag displayed on their Blackberry phones. I just thought it’s cool so I use it too.

Pornography is gradually eating into Nollywood and some have said it makes the movies more real. What’s your idea of pornography in Nollywood films?

Benson Okonkwo, my actor friend once said that and I think he is right. Pornography makes our films more real. When you shoot in South Africa or Ghollywood, there’s no movie you are going to do without emotion, love and sex. I don’t call it pornography, I call it doing your job. If your script says you should do something, it is doing your job, Nollywood has no business doing movies if it cannot absorb pornography.
