Ireti Doyle was too embarrassed to tell people that she wanted to act

Speaking on the latest episode of the Terms and Conditions podcast, the actress noted that in the early days of nursing a career for acting, she just couldn’t bring herself to tell people.

She said, “I was embarrassed, I couldn’t say it out loud for you long time. I don’t even know why now that I’m thinking about it, but I was just embarrassed to say it. And I remember, you know, when something is gnawing at your very insides, all I knew was I just wanted to act.”
