Mercy Johnson Battles Genevieve Nnaji

So often you read or hear Mercy Johnson telling or confiding in people that Genevieve is her Idol and at an event, she was said to have shed some tears of joy when she saw her Idol Genevieve. Truth be said Genevieve is arguably Nigeria's number 1 actress if not Africa's.
As everybody knows she has won numerous awards profiled on CNN and the number 1 talk show in the world "The Oprah Winfrey Show" .Her profile and accolades just keep rising that some are forced to ask is there any other actress that-can-dethrone-the-queen.(Genevieve) Strange-enough-the-answer-to-this-vital-question might just be found amongst one of those that adores her.

 
That is Mercy Johnson
Make no mistake Genevieve truly deserves her crown as the very best, but there are some films of her that she is just there. Nothing special, just like the regular Nollywood actress. Some say it has to do with the Director of the particular film, others say it is the script. Another thing you will notice about Genevieve is that she has not taken any-real-risk .shave her head completely bald, Kiss convincingly .etc

If-you-watch-Genevieve-in-the-movie -"BELOVED" and you watch some of her current ones; you will notice a Raw intense talent in her older films... But Mercy Johnson on the other hands seems to be getting better with each movie.

Her Talent is so Raw and intense that you can't separate acting from real life. In the movie "Kezaih" there are some scenes of Mercy Johnson that will send chills down your spine, like the scene where she was possessed and fell on the floor. In Hollywood movies, you might need-a-stunt-double to pull off that particular scene or-they will put things to protect her in other not to injure herself.

So many people others have done this particular type of scene (being possessed and falling) but most don't do it convincingly. There are so many different instances where Mercy outshines Genevieve which brings this vital question, GENEVIEVE vs. MERCY JOHNSON who is the best?   Give your honest opinion
