How a Blog’s Post Damaged My Self-Esteem – Beverly Naya

Actress Beverly Naya has opened up about a distressing experience she encountered with a blog that almost derailed her career.

She revealed that false accusations made by the blog nearly brought her career to an end and severely impacted her self-esteem, leading her to question the value of continuing as an actress.

During a recent interview with Chude Jideonwo, the 34-year-old actress shared how the blog consistently published negative stories about her, which felt like a personal attack, especially since she had previously been a victim of bullying.

Expressing her dismay, Beverly questioned why she was constantly singled out for criticism on the blog, stating, “It really got to me and it damaged my self-esteem, making me doubt myself. There were moments when I seriously considered quitting the industry.”

The relentless negativity from the blog plunged her into depression and caused her to doubt her acting skills, almost pushing her to give up on her acting career multiple times.

Recalling a specific blog post titled “Nollywood, Can We Please Stop Making Beverly Naya Happen!” she mentioned how it deeply affected her emotionally, leaving her feeling irrelevant and questioning the purpose of her efforts in the movie industry.
