Speaking during a recent podcast hosted by actor Baaj Adebule, Rosman said many people wrongly assume that all Nollywood celebrities are financially comfortable simply because of their public visibility.
According to her, while some actors appear successful financially, a large number of them rely on businesses and side ventures outside the movie industry to sustain their lifestyles.
Prompt News reports she stressed that several actors in the industry are battling financial difficulties despite their fame.
