Residents of Kumasi in the Ashanti Region are bracing themselves up to receive one of the most adorable sons, Reggie Osei Rockstone.
Music fans in Kumasi have not caught up with Rockstone in a long time. Fortunately, his new found love in movies will be presenting Kumasi based folks an opportunity to see their most loved hiplife artiste once again.
Undoubtedly, Reggie Rockstone’s style is admired and love in Kumasi. Though many music lovers from “Oseikrom” have shown deep love for Reggie’s music, many have expressed disappointment at not having the opportunity to witness him perform in years.
I did not want to write on yesterday’s match for reasons best know to me. How on earth can someone cheat like this and be successful at the end? Sometimes, such things make we wonder if Karma and all those Pay Back spirits really exist.
It seems for one to be successful or to achieve anything great in this world we live in, that person has to cheat others and later glorify or justify his cheating wonders. If this is not true, how on earth can Uruguay go through after vividly cheating under the eyes of the whole world?
Anyway, another celebrity website, Bossip.com which is not a Ghanaian media outlet has expressed their unbiased sentiments about the game and instead of writing up anything myself, I am presenting that as the true view of events since it came from a non-Ghanaian. Read Below for what Bossip had to say about the match……
We all accept and acknowledge that celebrities are humans and as such should be given some space even though writers and paparazzis should not be stopped from writing and chasing them around. Celebrities should not also forget that they live on fame and as long as they continue to substantially benefit from fame, they will have little privacy in relation to many aspects of their lives.
In the judgement of Baroness Hale during a recent case in UK involving Naomi Campbell, the UK court acknowledged that , celebrities benefit from tabloid newspapers and gossip websites and the tabloid newspapers also benefit from these celebrities. ”Both are grown ups who know the score”. Based on the courts deduction, I would want to know if Yvonne Nelson still does not know the score or what?.
This is and will continue to be a cat and mouse game. As celebrities run around enjoying or benefiting from their fame as well as trying to keep certain things private, Taloid newspapers and websites like Ghanacelebrities.Com which want to keep its readers informed of the activites of these celebrity figures, and expose their lies, weakness, evasions and hypocrisies in a hunt down will continue to chase them. ( We have learnt and matured in how to deal with these celebrities, so why dont they also learn ?)…
As a democratic country, the constitution of Ghana has a freedom and independence media, without unnecessary censorship as Chapter 12 article 162 states in the Ghanaian Constitution.
“Censorship according to my source is the suppression of speech or deletion of communicative material which may be considered objectionable, harmful, sensitive, or inconvenient to the government or media organization”.
Literally, the constitution has given any medium in Ghana the right to publish anything without being suppressed. It is no news that Ghanaian movies are well cherished within and outside Ghana. With great actors, actress and storylines, the audience (Ghanaians and Africans) can learn and connect with their background as these movies are enriched with our culture. These are some of the characteristics that make Ghanaian (or African) movies outstanding.
Recently, there has been a growing dissatisfaction among the audience on the lack of classic storyline. The directors have rather adopted a lot from the western culture and needs to be censored. Families in the olden days could gather around watching television programmes and movies that were educative and entertaining at the same time. These programmes and movies brought a lot of people together in various ways. This pattern has been part of our tradition for so many years.
Who started the mess? Oh yes, i mean who, when and why? I don’t want to say that the friendly relationship between the two fake woods (Nollywood/Ghallywood) has gone sour but something is really going wrong. It is official now, Nigerian Actors have to pay $1,000 if they desire or want to act in Ghanaian movies. The article below will give you the full gist.
I would like to mention that, it is unfortunate GC’s attempt to entertain, educate and inform is sometimes being turned into insult battles between “some” readers. For your info, we do not take any special interest in putting up Nollywood/Ghallywood or Nigeria/Ghana stories. When they come up, we will put them as we do for any other interesting and intriguing story.
For the last few months, issues and debates in the media have been centred on these two woods and countries. We expect you to discuss these issues without insults. If the “post hijacking” and insults continue, GC may reconsider it’s freedom of expression and speech policy by beginning to moderate and delete insulting comments. We do not want to do this but certain folks are pushing us to have a consideration for this…
All the same, Check out the article which was published in PM News, Nigeria.
Nasara Miriam Abdul Rauf is still claiming to be Ghana Most Beautiful winner 2009 after Tv3, the organizing body of the beauty pageant has issued a press statement to strip her off the title.
According to Tv3, Nasara has been found guilty in their eyes upon investigation of an alleged phone theft and to maintain the reputation of their pageant, they deem it necessary and fit to strip her off the 2009 title.
Nasara on the other hand has denied stealing any phone and “moving down” the line of set up and an attempt by TV3 to subject her to ridicule.( Why will TV3 make you and unmake you for no reason?, I do not know…)
That is what team spirit is all about. The Black Stars of Ghana charges up their spirits at the World Cup 2010 in South Africa. A lot of teams have been lacking the spirit to fight on. This is not the situation for Africa’s only hope in the tournament, Ghana. We can do and surely we will do it. I admire the team spirit and the strong desire to forge forward by the youngsters.Check out the video below…
Do you remember him? Those who have watched ‘CheckMate’ definitely do. Senanu Gbedawo (with Nadia and Naa Ashorkor) starred in Shirley Frimpong-Manso’s latest movie, ‘CheckMate’ where he played the role of Kwame. The movie has shot him to a quick fame as he is gathering momentum on the A-list actors in Ghana. Senanu’s dazzling smile and … Read more
Who says the movie industry is not lucrative. For many who doubt how lucrative the Ghana Film Industry has gotten in the last few years should take a close look at the industry players. The likes of Abdul Salam Mumuni, Shirley Frimpong Manso, Pascal Odikah and Emmanuel Apea through movies have established profitable businesses over the last few years.
For the main acts like Agya Koo, Jackie Appiah, john Dumelo Majid Michel and Nadia Buari they have become millionaires overnight.
Though he seems to have made so much from the music industry, I am pretty sure Reggie Rockstone after picking his cheque of $5,000 dollars at least as we hear from a deep throat source for a role in the latest movie WHITE is BLACK, he will be wondering why he has had to stay out of the movie industry for all this while.
I want you to meet Kwame Boeteng, Kwesi Boakye, and Kofi Siriboe, three brothers living in Los Angeles and doing it BIG!
Kwame, Born in 1992, is young man has an impressive career for being so young. Kwame has modeled for The Gap and Tommy Hilfiger, has appeared on several USA based television shows including Everybody Hates Chris, ER, and The Office, and participated in movies including The Least Among You, and most recently, Faith and Dreams in which he shares a character with his brother, Kwesi.
This is some deep sh*t. I do not even know what to believe in relation to Nasara’s theft allegation and story. Nasara, Ghana Most Beautiful 2009 is not only saying she did not steal any phone from Miss UK, but has not even been to UK , the place the action (theft) is said to have taken place.
I was preparing to reach her for an exclusive interview to bring her side of the story, but she has just spoken to Peacefm and as such there is no need for a second talk on this with her. I am therefore bringing to GC readers what Nasara told Peacefm….
Embattled beauty queen Nasara, (real name Mariam Abdul Rauf) winner of “Ghana’s Most Beautiful” 2009 pageant who has been stripped off her crown for allegedly stealing a mobile phone belonging to a fellow contestant Miss UK at the Miss Earth 2010, held in the Philippines, has made some revelation in an exclusive interview with peacefmonline.com.
Ghana and Nigeria are not far from each other in terms of geographical proximity. I stand to be corrected on this; I believe that in terms of culture and lifestyle, the two countries are not substantially different.
Sometimes, I find it thorny to distinguish between a Nigerian girl and a Ghanaian girl when they pass me on the street. Most of the important people in my life are Nigerians. What If I told you my girlfriend or baby’s mother is a Nigerian? To me, Nigerians are not merely our neighbours, they are our sisters and brothers and we share a lot in common than in difference.
On this platform and many others including “outside the virtual world”, there is a growing animosity and loathing between most Ghanaians and Nigerians. I have heard a Nigerian saying, I will never date a Ghanaian and have also come across a Ghanaian saying, I will never date a Nigerian. I do not only find this absurd, but also very shallow.

And truly, the ‘Home & Away’ album contains 13 ‘clean’ songs. Though Morris is not doing gospel, the mum will be proud upon hearing the songs. The songs are not gospel, they come close to it because no foul or swearing words were used.
