It’s no longer news that Nollywood actresses and actors are generally not well paid. Unless you are a Genevieve Nnaji or Mercy Johnson Okojie who earns about N1.2million per role, you fall in that category. Now, there are some who take home sums in the range N40,000 to N150,000 yet live surprisingly luxurious and flamboyant lives.

Below is a list of Nollywood actresses whose lifestyles doesn’t match their acting career.
5. Mercy Aigbe
No doubt, she is talented and highly fashionable. Mercy Aigbe remains one of the hottest actresses in the industry right now. But according to findings, the actress earns about N200,000 per movie, except in a few English movies in which she earns more. She also has a couple of endorsements but all that’s not enough to fund the life she shows us. According to our findings, the actress goes on at least three trips abroad per year, which cost N1.2m per trip. And she usually flies business class on those trips. Last year, she went on an express business trip to Dubai, and proceeded to China and then United Kingdom.
While the Edo-born actress is currently going through divorce proceedings with her hotelier husband, Lanre Gentry, we gathered that her estranged husband’s business had dwindled and, thus he couldn’t have contributed so much to those luxury trips. We however gathered that the actress has sponsors in high places, who cannot wait to shower more gifts on her and turn her life around, once she is done with her divorce.
