If we are talking about the Nigerian millennial experience, it is almost impossible to look past Genevieve Nnaji. She was the face of our home video era, and her presence in films like Ijé and Mirror Boy felt like a bridge between the classic Nollywood we grew up watching with our parents and the more modern, globalized industry we wanted to see. While Anne Hathaway represents a specific Western brand of nostalgia, Genevieve embodied a sense of grace, ambition, and relatability that really defined the aspirations of a generation. You could also argue for stars like Ramsey Nouah for his heartthrob status or Rita Dominic for her unmatched versatility, but Genevieve had that unique cultural weight that made her the true icon of our collective childhood and teenage years. It really comes down to which VHS tapes you were rewinding the most, but she remains the gold standard for most of us.
