That's such an achievement....wonder why they didn't get Genevieve instead lol.

LOL... Haba, Femiluv! The project is entirely voluntary. Stephanie chose to go for it; it just happened that Meryl Streep decided to lend her voice to the cause as well. I guess that's why you should never look down on opportunities- it might not have been a paying job but her concern for women's rights led her to a chance to work with a legend. If Genevieve went for it, she might be in these pictures instead of Stephanie, who knows?

@ Femiluv, is Stephanie not an actress too...abi what is your point..Perhaps we should be hoping they give your job(if you have one) to somebody else

Steph – The best of a second-rate bunch of Nollywood actresses, but still the best by a mile. Always knew this girl will go places, it’s good to see her leave the mediocrity of Nigerian film making behind her and aspire for better things. Harsh words maybe, but the truth.
Unlike some of the ‘local’ champions who are comfy with the low standards they operate in and the senseless adoration they receive from those who are not generally well-versed, Steph has taken a chance to mix it with the best, where it is done best. She has stepped up to the plate, just watch this girl’s talent flourish.

Voluntary???? Get your facts right!
