The popular comedian Olufemi Fagade but famously known as Omo Baba in the recent interview with the Telegraph newpaper,He said the most embarrassing moment of his life was a few years back when a fan told him he was ugly.
The comedian who recently proposed to his girlfriend of six years share the following interview :
<b>On his worst memory</b>: When I was working in 2003, a fan told me boldly that I was so ugly. I felt like dying because I always see myself as a fine boy. So when people started telling me the same thing, I just told them that even though I am ugly they can still call me 'fine boy'. That was how the fine boy thing began. It is like a blessing in disguise.
<b>On meeting with President Goodluck Jonathan recently with other entertainers</b>: He demanded to see entertainers in Nollywood, music industry and comedians too. I got a call and I honoured it. That was all. [He] let us know what he has done, his plans if re-elected and other things about governance. He tried to shed light on some issues he felt the public had misinterpreted or are misinterpreting.
<b>On proposing to his girlfriend after 6 years</b>: Fans have been asking me since 2002 when I would get married, but I am the advocate of 'get married, stay married'. I feel it is the time for me to do the right thing, not because I want to be like others. Marriage is never too late. I see younger and older ones getting married every day and I have anchored over 500 weddings, so I believe I can advise couples even though I am not married yet.
<b>On his music</b>: Like they say, 'Jack of all trade, master of none'. For you to have a say in a particular field, one needs to start with one before introducing the others. And it appeared comedy came first for me. Most people don't even know I have been acting before comedy. In 2009, I had singles with the late Dagrin, Terry G, 9ice, Eldee among others. I would soon drop an album. If you take things steadily, then you can be 'Jack of all trade, master of all'. Most of the jobs and invitations I get now are as a comedian. I am not trying to rubbish Nollywood people or musicians but I can act and sing well.
