Actress and winner of the Next Movie Star Reality TV show (2015 edition), Cynthia Shalom, says she fancies women marrying older lovers.

Asked to comment on what she thought about women marrying older partners, the busty role interpreter told Sunday Scoop, “Women marrying older lovers is very common and it’s no news at all. I actually fancy women who marry older lovers. She is more likely to look up to him because he is older and has more experience which often leads to maturity. If an older man, who is worthy of one’s time knows what he wants in a relationship, it’s that simple. As long as they are good to each other and their vision for the future is in harmony, why not? It is about the two of them as individuals and not the age difference. Age is only a number.”

Shalom also stated that rejections were one of the hurdles she had to surmount while starting out in Nollywood. She said, “No one likes to hear ‘no’. However, over time, I trained myself to accept ‘no’ though it took me a long time to understand. It doesn’t mean that one is not good; it just indicates that one may not be right for the particular role. It can demean one, honestly. Trying to fit in and stand out was also another challenge I faced. It’s a huge industry with so many talents and everyone chasing the same thing.”
