Former Miss Niger Delta Symbol of Talent 2012, Sandra Bassey, has disclosed that being a queen can be very challenging especially with the opposite sex.
The former beauty queen, model and actress, explained that one of her challenges as a beauty queen were the advances she got from men wanting to have an affair with her in exchange for project sponsorship or approval of proposals.
She also narrated that she almost missed it as she was not able to identify who were her true friends as everyone wanted to be around her.
“Basically, one of the challenges I had was advances from men. Men wanting to sleep with you in exchange for project sponsorship or to approve your proposals. Another challenge was in terms of friendship. I didn’t know who were my true friends. Lots of people came around me. I didn’t know who came because I was beautiful,or for my fame. I didn’t know who came genuinely, because of my personality. I got confused at a point,” she explained.
The former queen who was down with sadness, unveiled that though she was famous in school but was not happy for not contributing her quota to the development of her school except state projects which use to console herself.
“I was famous, but I feel bad that I didn’t do anything in my institution during my reign as Miss Niger-Delta. With the little things I did in the State, people know me, because I embarked on some State projects that boosted my ego,” she noted.
Sandra who recently debuted in Nollywood, featuring in the screen adaptation of Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s bestselling novel, ‘Half of a Yellow Sun,’ revealed that she is not relenting is her efforts as she plans on contesting for the 2014 Most Beautiful Model in Nigeria pageant with the hope of winning the crown.
