Bella Okagbue has candidly discussed the emotional challenges she faces due to the constant public attention that accompanies celebrity status. The reality star has revealed a side of herself that deviates from the conventional portrayal of celebrities. Expressing her dislike for crowds, having her photos taken, and the pressure to maintain a public image, Bella Okagbue admitted her struggle with interacting with people and managing the demands of staying in the public eye. Despite gaining fame through BBNaija, she acknowledged the conflict between the expectations of upholding a public persona and her personal preferences.
In her words;
I hate crowds, I hate facing cameras and faking a smile, and I dislike socializing. I don’t have social anxiety disorder cause I don’t care about being judged by others but I hate being watched. Everyone around me wants me to keep making appearances and try to stay relevant but I really do not care. I just want my work to speak for me, be happy and rich. What do I do?”
