The actor, who transitioned from engineering to the entertainment industry, clarified that his entry into the field was driven by a passion for the craft, emphasizing that "fame was the collateral upside."
Speaking in the latest episode of Celebrity Quickies, Deyemi said: “To be honest, I didn’t know this side of fame. I didn’t come into the industry to be famous. I came to do the work and the collateral upside of doing the work was fame. So, I quickly adapted with the understanding that it is just part of the job.“In fact, I try to remove that from my head to help me stay grounded.”
He expressed his greatest regret as not commencing his acting career sooner.
Additionally, he mentioned Hollywood actresses he would like to go on dates with, naming Viola Davis and Meryl Streep.
