Nosa Rex Calls Out Stars: “Join The Promo Revolution OR Be Left Behind”
OpenLife Nigeria reports that Nollywood actor Nosa Rex shook up the industry with a bold declaration: dancing isn’t just for fun it’s now a serious tool to sell movies.
He warned that stars who ignore the trend risk being left behind while audiences flock to content that entertains, engages, and gets shared.
“Most of you don’t know how these things work,” Nosa said. “Dancing doesn’t sell your movie by itself, but it holds your viewers, engages them, entertains them while they get your message, and makes them share it. Normal announcements just won’t cut it anymore. Our old strategies are gone!”
He didn’t hold back on naming examples.
“Funke Akindele has led the part of dancing and made billions yet you say you don’t want to dance? YOU DEY PLAY! Toyin Abraham, when she started dancing, looked funny, but she joined the billion gang. This is because she danced.”
Nosa also addressed older stars hesitant to join the trend.
“If God gives me money to make a cinema movie, Nna, we’ll have problems I will twerk more than strippers. Omotola says it’s not professional to dance she is right, it wasn’t professional in her time. But mama, this is not how it is now. Move with the train. Your movie is coming out March 6.”
He ended with a mix of humor and urgency, urging
support from fellow actors:
“Omo sexy, you are supposed to even call Funke, ask her how she does it, then we’ll dance for your movie. Join the moving train!”
Nosa Rex’s Instagram clip is more than just entertainment it’s a wake-up call for Nollywood.
In today’s world, capturing audience attention means innovating, engaging, and yes, sometimes dancing.
Those who refuse risk watching others reap the rewards.
