Glamtush reports that Afrobeats global sensation, Oyinkansola Sarah Aderibigbe, known professionally as Ayra Starr, has joined the growing list of singers to venture into the Nigerian movie industry, Nollywood.

This online news platform understands that the 22-year-old Grammy-nominated diva is set to make her acting debut in Prime Video’s original ‘Christmas In Lagos.’

The romantic comedy also stars Teniola A. Aladese, Shalom C. Obiago, Rayxia Ojo and Shaffy Bello, and Adekunle Gold.

The movie was filmed in Lagos and directed by Jadesola Osiberu.

“For me, Ayra Starr represents what it means to be young and female and daring and brave and fearless – just being yourself. She was on the list from day one,” Osiberu told Variety.

Other musicians making cameos in the film include Wurld and Liya, while the soundtrack features songs from legendary musician, Sunny Ade, Afrobeats icons, Flavour, D’banj amongst others
