I can watch movies from morning till night — Chizzy Alichi

I can watch movies from morning till night — Chizzy Alichi

Chizzy-Alichi

Fast rising sultry Nollywood actress, Chizzy Alichi found herself in the acting profession because she has always been nuts about movies. “I have always wanted to be an actress. One day, I was passing by and I saw Actors Guild of Nigeria banner at New Berries Park, Enugu, I went in there and made some inquiries. The next day, I registered and started going for auditions. That was in November 2010. I got my first role the same day I went for an audition.” she once declared in an interview.

But that was not the big chunk of cake Chizzy was hoping for but the crumb she got at the start set her appetite aflame with passion to do more and have her name being mumbled in every household as a made actress.

“A female friend informed me about the audition, so on getting there, they were almost rounding off. When I got there, the director called me and they auditioned and cast me immediately. Though I was so nervous because naturally I am a very shy person, I tried my best to perform well. They gave me the role principally because of my height. The title of the movie is Magic Money. I was paid N6,000.  I acted alongside Mercy Johnson and Bob-Manuel Udokwu. I was so happy, nervous and excited” she blurted out.

But that basically got the wheel rolling for the leggy and beautiful Chizzy who is now holding her own in the make-believe world. In a recent chat with Potpourri ,she said she had never had a crush on any actor. To her, all she wanted was to get in front of cameras and act.

“I love movies and I have always wanted to be part of it. Even as an actress, I still watch movies from morning till night or till the next morning” she told Potpourri
