Yesterday I met another amazing brother. Another Nollywood's finest you would say but I would call him a legend in the making.
You
might be wondering why I used those exact words so I'm about to clear your
doubt on this one.
Without
wasting much of your time, I bring you our mystery man...... A Friend... A
brother and most importantly, A LEGEND IN THE MAKING (yeah I said it again)
lol.
1. Tell us a
little bout yourself.
Kingsley
Ogboso, was born and raise in Surulere, a graduate of the National Institute
for Information Technology, Ikeja Lagos. Hails from Abia State Umuahia South
Local Government Area. He's MD/CEO EliTROPH & DES a Television Content and
Brand Activation Company. He's an Actor and a Distributor for LONGRICH. A
dancer and choreographer and member of the Spirit of David Gospel Dance Club.
Former Vice Chairman Lagos State Pool Association (Billiard Sports).
I
came into limelight as Winner of the Maiden Edition of the Next Movie Star TV
Reality Show in 2005 with Tonto Dikeh and Annie Idibia as 1st and 2nd runners
up and my first Movie being "Calabar Girl" featuring Star Actors like
Bimbo Akintola, Tina Mba, Kunle Coker and Rachel Oniga. I left Acting to acquire other skill and was
only back officially in 2012.
3. Notable
jobs you have done.
From
the most recent:
*

*
MNET TINSEL - as Soji Bankole for 6weeks.

After
I emerged winner of NMS in 2005 I had to go try my hands in acquiring other
skills. Nollywood at the time wasn't doing well enough to help me bring home
the bacon plus being faced with poor management and PR in an industry i didn't
know much about, so I decided to go learn a trade or skill to better myself.
5. So any
present projects?
*
As a major come back to my loving fans and biggest supporters I will be playing
lead character in a new MNET series titled "One MINUTE Man" coming
soon.
*
Gloves of Passion - a short film against (domestic & emotional violence) is
already out by Agboola Gureje. Watch on YouTube https://youtu.be/LZ-I1qfmdSg
Just
a snippet and more to come.
6. I saw the
short movie "Gloves of Passion". I must say that it’s a classic
movie, however, we noticed you added some weight there. Was it part of your
cast to, or is Kingsley Ogboso becoming a +size? LoL
LOL, Mr Kingsley Ogboso is no longer that skinny guy you all knew during Next Movie Star o! He is all muscled up now LOL, but for the short film Gloves of Passion I was required to hit the gym and put on some extra muscles because i had to play the role of a Pro-boxing champ and I knew nothing about boxing neither could I do 50 pushups to save my life, but in the end i guess i turned out large LOL.
7. What will
you want to be remembered for?
I
want to be remembered for that actor, dancer and performer, whose talent took
lots of kids off the street to pursue a better path for themselves.
8. As an
actor, what kind of roles do you feel comfortable with the most?
As
an Actor being versatile is one thing I love alot, I’m a big critic of quality acting
so to me, that's what sets us all aside from boys to men as performers. I
always say bring in on. I can play a house boy, mad man, armed robber, lover
etc. you name it but if I were to choose i'll say that i'm yet to be seen in my
father, husband element hence "Meet the Neighbours" was a lovely and
challenging experience for me you can find that on you tube too.
9. You are an exceptional actor, how can various producers and directors reach you, in case they want to work with you on set?
Wow,
Thank you for the compliment I’m honoured. I can be reached via Instagram:
@kingsleyogboso or Facebook: OBA King Ogboso or via Email: allhaildking@yahoo.com
10. Any word
of advice for your fans out there?
I
will want to ask my fans out there; do you have a Passion for something? Not
everyone will be an actor, discover you, don't just be a follower when you have
been born to lead men and not to sound like a cliche...GOD always ...GOD first
and every other good desire will be accomplished. Never be in a hurry, be
anxious for nothing, and trust God for everything and above all persistence and
hard work truly pays. Cheers guys see you all right at the top.
