13 Nollywood Fine Girls and How They Look Now

The heartthrobs of yesterday have aged.

Call them what you want: heartthrobs, Nollywood ‘fine girls’, female love interests…in the 90s and early 2000s, these women dominated the Nollywood scene as the “fine girls” that carried most Nigerian romantic movies. Their characters were always caught in some kind of web of love that was either abominable, not supported by one’s family, or that had turned sour.

Last week, I compiled a list of 13 Nollywood fine boys and how they look now and you seemed to really enjoy that list. So today, for your sake, I’m extending this list now to the fine women of Nollywood. You’re welcome.

In case you missed last week’s list, here it is:

For today, I’m going to be focusing more on the women who we’ve missed, that haven’t been very visible over these last few years. That means that although of course names like Genevieve Nnaji, Stephanie Okereke, Rita Dominic, etc. dominated that year, we know how they look today because they were just very recently in one movie or the other. Today, I want to focus on women that we maybe have not seen for quite some time. Let’s check in on them and see how they look now.

Are you ready to jump into this list? Then, let’s go.
