"I don’t think plastic surgery would ever be an option for me. I love me and I love my face. I remember once I had just fake eyelashes on and I hated it. I hated the way I looked and the way it felt, very unnatural and uncomfortable…(Laughs). I don’t think there is anything about me I would want to change or alter. I know what my mother looked like at 60, so I know exactly what I am going to look like at 60 and I can certainly live with that".

"But seriously, Caucasian women might need plastic surgery because their skin tends to sag prematurely but I think that African women, black women don’t really have that problem. Even with all the beauty products and cosmetics in the market, I think black women genetically have really good skin".

 Talking about her how she managed to stay fit....

  I don’t over eat. I realize also that there are a lot of things that you can get away with eating when you are young that you cannot do when you are older. I don’t eat solid starchy goods, like eba, iyan…I’ve discovered that by the time I started approaching 40 it was just difficult to lose weight. I mean, you have to be disciplined (laughs) but that’s the price you pay to look good. I eat green salads or fruit salads twice, every day. I usually have a pawpaw, orange and water melon fruit salad or a lettuce, egg, chicken or croaker fish salad, with olives. I also drink a lot of herbal tea.

Talking about looking healthy despite being a heavy smoker

 I have to confess, I used to be a really heavy smoker when I was younger but I have gradually stopped. I first got down to just the relaxing stick or two at the end of the day but I’ve made up my mind that I need a total wellness and giving up smoking is one way to achieving that. So I believe that the detox machine helps clean out all the organs. I also take my vitamins, Wellwoman and Perfectil which are multivitamins specially formulated for women.
