“My name is Bibitayo Bettinal, I am from Ile-Ife, Osun State. started modelling as a cover girl for PM newspaper. My first movie was Iwalewa by Kabira Kafidepe; I love acting and modelling but I also dabble in the fashion business‘ – @bibimii

 

In a competitive entertainment industry such as ours in Nigeria, one of the surest ways to stand tall and standout out in the choked up environment associated with a dog-eat-dog attitude, is not just to be super creative but also to channel your creativeness into multiple streams generating buzz
and money. If you are beautiful enough to make it as a runway model, you can also channel all the courage used to walk the runway into acting if you have a flair for that industry. This is exactly what this gorgeous lady is
doing right about now. She’s even gone further by also making extra money in the fashion business.

“My name is Bibitayo Bettinal, I am from Ile-Ife, Osun State, the only female in a family of four and I’m a graduate of Mass Communication from Moshood Abiola Polytechnic, Abeokuta, Ogun State. I started modelling as a cover girl for PM newspaper, then Sun newspaper, then proceeded
to NTFS (Nigeria Television Fashion Show) as a runway model. From there, I went into pageants; I won Miss Ijaiye Ojokoro 2007, and then came out 3rd runner up for Miss Catwalk to Stardom by Yinka Adewunmi. I did some commercial jobs, and then ventured into the movie industry.

“My first movie was Iwalewa by Kabira Kafidepe. Then much later I featured in two soap operas namely, 2 Faces of Life and Hotel Matter. Not to forget, I also featured in Kampson and neighbors by Uncle Tunji Bamishingbin, to mention just a few. I love acting and modelling but I also dabble in the fashion business. I have a fabric online business HAUZOFBIBA which I manage… I guess you’ll be
wondering if I am a jack of all trades lol. I‘m currently working on my
first movie and soap opera.”
