Multi million Naira endorsement deals are currently flying left, right
and centre in Nollywood with most of the stars involved smiling heavily
to the banks with mouth watering offers. Star actress and Glo
ambassador, Monalisa Chinda recently landed a juicy endorsement deal as
the face of Vita500, a new energy drink from South Korea that recently
stormed Nigeria and all West African countries.
Naijapals
gathered that sexy Chinda was paid a whopping N30 million, for her
pretty and popular face to be associated with the wave making drink
currently being marketed and distributed in the whole of West Africa by
Mescon Industries limited.
Chinda, who’s also the face of the
ongoing Rivers State cultural fiesta, tagged CarniRiv 2011, happily
confirmed the deal, but blatantly refused to disclose the amount
involved.
“Yes,
I’m the new face of Vita500 energy drink; we recently concluded all
contractual agreements with both parties being very happy with the deal.
I’m not denying the fact that I was handsomely paid, but the amount is
what I cannot disclose, it’s personal. My job for them as an ambassador
is to basically use my face and goodwill to help promote the brand in
Nigeria and other West African countries. This involves a lot of
traveling and strategic public appearances”, she disclosed.
The
top actress who recently returned from Atlanta Georgia, US, where she
shot a new film and equally participated in the annual new media
Nollywood programme, which was hosted by the Georgia Institute of
Technology, also debunked the rumour making the rounds that she and her
colleague, Nse Ikpe Etim are engaged in a media war. “Nse and I are not
fighting, we’re still very good friends. I don’t know where the wicked
people circulating the ugly and fake story got it from,” she insisted.
On
her plans for 2012, Chinda added: “Now that I’m back, the next thing on
my agenda is to conclude work on my soap, Catwalq, which I intend
releasing early 2012. It is a soap that will change the face of
programming on TV when it finally hits the airwaves. I have a lot to do
and unveil in 2012 and my fans should be ready to see more of me,
because I will be thrilling them nonstop.”
