According to her,“My ideal man is the man in the Book of Proverbs. A man who will let me live my dreams, shine without being intimidated and be proud of me just like I am of him; that is a rare species. For me, love means selflessness which is giving yourself solely to the happiness and well-being of others. I have had my fair share of heartbreak. Really, it has a very bitter taste.” Juliet also revealed she has been a victim of sex-for-role scandals that has plagued Nollywood for a long time.
She said, “It is an unpleasant situation; very unpleasant I must confess. I have faced such scenarios before but I never gave in. You see, for me, acting is a passion. I am not desperate for roles; not at all. I have turned down such offers and I am glad I did. I won my award based on sheer credibility so I don’t see why I should sleep with anybody to get a role. That would be belittling myself; it is like the Esau Syndrome which is selling your birthright for a plate of porridge. The movies I have featured were based on merit. There are still good producers and directors out there who want to make real movies with excellent cast and those are the kind of people I have been working with.”
