Joysekani, popularly known as “TherealDramaqueen,” is carving a unique space for herself in the entertainment and culinary industries. A proud Igbo woman with a background in business administration, she is a chef, a content creator, an influencer, and an actress—all wrapped into one dynamic personality. In an exclusive interview, she shares insights into her journey, challenges, and exciting new projects.
Joysekani’s love for cooking started at a young age, growing up in a family where food was more than just sustenance—it was an art. “My whole family is gifted with the ability to create delicious delicacies, and being part of such a household made me one of the best,” she shares. At just 12 years old, she realized her passion for the culinary world and has never looked back. “Since then, I have never made a mistake in my cooking,” she adds confidently.
For Joysekani, content creation came naturally as an extension of her acting career. “As an actress, you have to explore different roles and mass acting techniques. I got into content creation through a celebrity influencer and comedian who encouraged me to dive into storytelling. Some of the real-life stories I’ve portrayed almost felt like they were coming to life,” she reveals.
Acting has always been a deep passion for Joysekani. “When you truly love something, it flows effortlessly. What I enjoy most is the ability to express myself in different characters,” she explains. Whether taking on dramatic roles or comedic sketches, her versatility shines through, making her a fan favorite.
As an influencer, Joysekani is determined to maintain authenticity and integrity. “One thing I always tell my fans is that whatever I bring to the table is real and legit. Being an influencer isn’t about misleading people; it’s about guiding them toward real opportunities and honest businesses,” she states.
Managing multiple roles isn’t easy, but Joysekani has found a way to make it work. “I have workers who make things easier for me. My schedule is well planned—if it’s time to shoot my cooking content, my team ensures I’m fully prepared. The same applies to my other projects,” she says. However, she acknowledges that burnout is real, and she makes sure to take breaks when needed. “Sometimes, we step back and rest for a day or more. It’s necessary.”
Every career has its ups and downs, and for Joysekani, the obstacles have been spiritual, physical, and emotional. “If you don’t know God, you’re doomed in this industry,” she says, emphasizing how her faith has been her pillar of strength. She credits her ability to overcome challenges to her unwavering belief in God.
Reflecting on her journey so far, Joysekani treasures the people she has met and the experiences she has gained. “Meeting great people and spending quality time together has been unforgettable. Getting to where I am now is something I will always cherish,” she says.
For those looking to follow in her footsteps, Joysekani offers simple but powerful advice: “Follow your heart, put God first, and believe in yourself. Never think someone else can do it better than you—you are the best version of yourself.”
