TV personality, Denrele Edun was on Monday involved in another dramatic fall which left him hurt in the face during a movie shoot.
Injured Denrele, who posted a video of himself after the incident on Instagram said no artist has suffered in the craft of entertainment like himself. They say that true artists suffer for their craft, but perhaps no artist has suffered like myself on this hustle of mine!
All in a bid to make my acting more convincing, I was supposed to drop into a faint in the very first scene of the movie ‘PEPPER SOUP.
From his words,I guess I miscalculated and fell hard on a metallic object on the floor that pierced my face. I kinda blacked out for a few seconds and felt something warm running down my face.
Truth is, a blood vessel just a little above my right eye (an inch away from my eyebrow bone) was burst open and it was hard to control the bleeding.
Recall that the talented TV personality, had a similar accident at a fashion Runway – ‘The Event Show‘ an annual event hosted by Tres Bien Events in Port Harcourt last year.
He cited: they say that true artists suffer for their craft, but perhaps no artist has suffered like myself on this hustle of ours! The moment I got the script titled #PepperSoup with me as the lead character, I just wanted to jump on board! And yes, I jumped on in my gangsta mode! Whilst shooting the first scene, I was supposed to pass out but in a bid to make it convincing, I fell on my face and accidentally split my eye brow area open! I bled like crazy!!! REAL BLOOD!!! The producer wanted to strike set and cancel shoot but I refused! Say what? First rule: the show must go on! And I was kinda lucky we were shooting in a hospital so there were nurses to dress the wound.
Had to add some extra extensions to my hair to hide the plaster...And I got back on set like nothing happened! I'm in a lot of pain but hey...THE SHOW MUST GO ON! Here's your favorite StageFaller with another beautiful FALL!
