Filmmaker and media entrepreneur Samuel Olatunji, also known as Bigsam, recently shared a story about advising actress Toyin Abraham to shave her armpits during their early days of working together. In a conversation with media personality Chude Jideonwo, Bigsam reflected on his role as Toyin’s publicist and the lengths he went to support her growth in the industry.
Bigsam, the CEO of Bigsam Media, explained, “When managing an artist, you become like their parent, their pastor, their everything. It’s not just about promoting their work; it’s about guiding them through every aspect of life.” He recounted how he once bought shaving sticks for Toyin to ensure she looked her best for a meeting, demonstrating his commitment to her success.
He also mentioned how he helped Toyin Abraham purchase a house in Ibadan, handling the transaction and only revealing the details to her after she got married. “People don’t know the sacrifices Toyin made or the challenges she overcame. She worked hard to reach a point where she could afford luxuries like a G-Wagon, and she deserves credit for her dedication and commitment to improving her life.”
