I have read countless comments and rants on this blog-GhanaCelebrities.Com which suggest that, the Ghanaian Movie Industry unfairly favours light skinned individuals.
Believers of the above statement have always backed their claims with the fact that the Ghanaian movie industry is populated with so many light skinned Actors and Actresses…
Are these people telling me the various light skinned Actors and Actresses are gracing our scenes merely because of their colour and not necessary because they deserve the roles or have the required talents?
How on earth can you convince me that the Majid Michel’s and the Nadia Buari’s are getting their roles purely based on their skin colour?
If light skinned entertainers have undue advantage over dark skinned, then how come Jackie Appiah, John Dumelo, Yvonne Okoro and others have been dominating the movie industry for considerable number of years now?
For me, I am yet to be convinced that the various light skinned Actors and Actresses are earning their movie roles mainly based on their colour and therefore they are enjoying excessive advantage over their dark skinned counterparts.
What do you honestly think? Are you one of those who know for a fact that the Ghanaian movie industry unfairly favours light skinned individuals? What makes you think so or otherwise?
