Nigerian actress, Shan George in a recent interview, cleared the air on her controversial lifestyle, scandals, failed marriages, etc.See excerpts below:On how the scandals and controversies affect her, she said: "As a human being, such things affect me. How we cope with it is what makes us different. For me, I see it as the hazard of the profession. Fortunately, my children are adults and can decipher truth from falsehood. Truth is, when people write false comments about you, those who are very close to you (your family) always know the truth. They are those who matter to me. Once you have a clear conscience, then there is no fear."On rumors of her third marriage, she had this to say: "There was no third marriage. Actually, it was a role I played in a movie entitled 'Heartbreak', it was shot late last year in Abuja. In the movie, I got married and the production pictures circulated in the media as part of publicity stunt for the movie. Then, some bloggers, who claim to be journalists, got hold of it and said I got married! It was just a movie wedding not a real one."On if she regrets being an actress, she said: "Yes. I do nurse regrets when people assume you are the roles you interpret in films. It is make-believe and if you don't do it well, no producer comes for you again. The number two challenge of acting is... people think you are what they see in movies. If you were living in a big house... when they see you in real life they want to see you in that wealthy appearance... then it has a psychological effect on those acting.There was a time I was pelted with tomatoes at Alade market because some of those people believed I snatched my friend's husband in a movie! That aside, some actors act as rich men/women in films... They now live beyond their means and get involved in scandals because they are so desperate to meet with the standard. I am not a victim of that anyway."
