MC Bellefull talks about Covid 19 and his love for women

Who is Mc Bellefull for those who don’t know? Your background, et

.My name is Bele Oladapo Justine aka Bellefull.. An Indigene of ilaje in Ondo State.. I’m currently Single and Searching.. #smile..
I’m a graduate of Architecture from one of the Best polytechnic’s in Nigeria.. The Great Yaba College of Technology where I bagged my HND in 2017.. Although, I did my ND in The Federal Polytechnic Ado Ekiti….

I have 3 Siblings.. A mom and I’m fatherless.. Don’t know where he is now though, maybe Heaven or Hell but I know he’s resting well wherever he is.. #hahaha..

I grew up in Sapele Delta State where I attended Our ladies Nur/Pry School, Elite Secondary School and Ufuoma mixed Secondary School respectively.. Before moving finally to Ondo State where I have my immediate family in 2009 where I wrote my WAEC and NECO in Mahin Community High School, Ode Mahin..

How long have you been in the industry?

Non professionally 7 years. But professionally 4 years now… We all start counting professionally because that’s when I started getting paid for Talking a lot. All the while I was just an MC/Comedian without a program.. #smile..

How were you able to merge schooling & standup comedy?

All die na die when it comes to merging.. Especially as an Upcoming Comedian in Lagos… Trust me it wasn’t easy, but then my passion, hunger, love, respect and stories of men in the game has kept me going strongly…
I have made up my mind, if it will take me to have lots of CO in School I don’t mind so long I achieve my target.. My God never failed though #hahaha.. My wishes didn’t come to pass in the CO issues… But it wasn’t an easy ride Schooling and Entertainment.. I knew earlier so I prepared for it..

Do you have other businesses or you are a full time comedian

Apart from comedy I’m also an Architect part-time. I can’t waste my School fees and Departmental fees for nothing na.. Let me practice small.. 5 years of studying Architecture is no joke.. It’s still a means of survival for me and each works together for my good..
I’m doing freelance and I have my small work space at home not like I’m working in a company for the now.. I might have to review it soon #smile.

Were you among those sharing palliatives during the Covid 19 lockdown?

Nothing much here my Sister, but I wish I could do something.. It’s a Global issue and not a personal one.. But then, I still try to show love in my own little way.. Gave out small food stuff with the little change I could afford, because me sef need help too.. Ehn Ehn..

What is the greatest challenge you’ve ever faced as a comedian?

I’m still an upcoming no doubt but most challenges we face is the Belief that we can be better with time (diminishing words and craft) .. Also some platforms are not encouraging enough, we also face language barrier which is still fair… Apart from these I’m good to go.. I wouldn’t have faced so much hardship if my father was still alive. That man can be so Bellefull of himself 😁😀

Do you have plans to go into Nollywood?

Nollywood! If the opportunity comes then it’s a BIG YES for me. Atleast I’ve been in one/two locations before, I’ve also been an Extra in Jennifer’s Diary in 2015 when I entered Lagos fully for my HND…. So my YES to Nollywood will be another stepping stone in my Career path.. I won’t mind.

Nigerians are preparing to go back to work from the 4th of May, what is your take on that?

I can’t wait for us to go back, I’ve missed my clients and they’ve missed me too.. I have some Architectural Jobs I’ve done without getting paid.. So it’s good for me and my Clients.

What are your future plans as a comedian?

Future plans is to be amongst the Best and most sought after in Nigeria.. And also taking my craft overseas…

But remember all power belongs to God. Man proposes God disposes.. All power belongs to God.. This is my prayer if yes I’m still in the path…

How do you concentrate with work & women as a fast rising comedian?

Hahaha… My Sister Women will always come na.. Shooo!! Have you forgotten I’m the Son Of David and Descendant of Solomon? #hahah…

But then in a good way women are Destiny helpers.. The right woman will help you except if you want to start going into fornication with many, above all I like woman and I dey straight forward #hahaha… I love my female friends and Fans.. I make them see through me and loved..

Any words of encouragement to aspiring comedians and the youth in general?

Aspiring comedians know what you want and who you intend to be like… It may change along the line of action but then you are following a part..

Comedy is all about Creativity, presence, persistent nature And Consistency.. Make sure all these are present in your dealings even if not major for now…
Do some Stuff for free as upcoming to give you visibility and presence.. Above all reference the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords in all your dealings and doings…
