"I
like Genevieve like crazy. So, I started watching her movies from the
onset. But I didn't want to be Genevieve, I wanted to be a Mercy with
the motivation that a Genevieve could give me.
The
first time I met her, my friend took me there. When we got to
where she
was, I became Nervous. I jumped into my friend's boot.
So, when she
came out of the hotel, I could only hear her voice.
I
was in tears of joy. I said Aunty Genevieve, so you watch my movies.
She was sort of embarrased. Before I met her, she had already known that
there was somebody who was crazily insane about her.
