Norbert Young narrates how ladies nearly beat him up over a movie role

Veteran star actor, Norbert Young has narrated how he was embarrassed and nearly beaten up over a new role he played.

The role interpreter recently recounted an embarrassing moment he had with two supposed female fans over the role he played in the Nigerian TV series, Checkmate.

Young revealed this during an interview with Punch. When asked his most embarrassing moment as an actor, he said;

“I don’t keep such things in mind although I must have had some embarrassing moments. Around 1991 or 1992, some ladies nearly beat me up on a bus because of the role of Professor Edem, who was a randy person. The two ladies were actually harassing me on the bus. However, it was very early in the morning and there weren’t many people on the bus. So, there was no big crowd for me to be really embarrassed. But, I remember that incident very well”.

In the said movie, the actor portrayed the role of a university lecturer, Monday Edem, who is known to be notorious for forcing his female students to grant him s*xual favors in exchange for their graduation.

“It is generally believed that celebrity marriages don’t last for long but yours has been on for over 19 years. What has kept your marriage this far?” He was asked.

He said; “If one deliberately sets out to marry an actress, it means one would have a particular interest. And when that interest wanes, what happens? So, love holds us together. There is no special thing that we do to be together. We just live our lives from day to day. We still keep being friends, keep communicating, win and face our problems together. The most important thing is that we still keep being friends. There is no special thing we do to keep our marriage. We lead normal lives and do not pretend about it. We do not live above or below our means”.
