While many beauty pageants around the world ends with the organisers not fulfilling their side of the bargains or some winners’ triumph being doubted, this does not stop new pageants from popping up day in and out.
The latest beauty pageant to hit the shores of Ghana is ‘Miss Ghallywood Beauty Pageant & Talent Hunt’. “It is an event designed to celebrate Ghanaian movie actors/actresses, appreciating the fans who patronise their movies, discover and make new movie stars and celebrities”, the organisers told GhanaCelebrities.Com.
It is very strange that, though the name ‘Ghallywood’ has not full been accepted as a suitable title for the Ghana Movie Industry, many people still continue to use it.
The ‘Miss Ghallywood Beauty Pageant & Talent Hunt’ is an idea of West Coast Entertainment [Ghana] Limited. The company specialises in Movie and Music Production, Modelling, Photo Studio, Artiste Management among others.
The name of the event suggests it’s for actresses already in the industry but on the contrary, it’s meant to attract the interest and divert the attention of the youth, notably the young budding and give them a meaningful opportunities in life.
The pageant also seeks to create job opportunities for the winners with automatic slots in ‘Ghallywood’ movies. No audition will be required from them.
The event will be officially launched in the coming weeks after which auditions will be held inGhana(Southern and Northern sector) to pick 12 finalists. The grand finale is slated for December 2011.
Expected to grace the finals in December includes Ghana Movie Industry actors/actresses and the very best of Nollywood.

waste of time…nothing but “chopping innocent or desperate ” gals..and taking their money too..
Is it Ghallywood, Ghollywood, Gollywood Gallywood.. I’ve seen so many spellings for this ridiculous name. Why not just call it Ghanaian Film Industry (GFI) Plain and simple. Why do we have to copy. Come on, let’s be more original. Nollywood sounds pretty nice even though its still ridiculous. Bollywood sounds ok. Ghollywood or however you spell it sounds dumb. Truthfully. 1957. We were first. Let us be trend setters. Stop following.
@Kate Ampong, my sister, say it again… I get confused a lot with the spelling of this Ghalla or whatever…. seriously we need a unique name, haba !!!!
@naa asheley, lol
@naa asheley, loooool girl, y dnt u just say Galantin
No one should pay a dime to these jokers. They dont even have clue what they are on about, whether its talent or beauty. This has big scam written all over it, you have a date for auditions but no venue?
@dagodfather,I totally agree with you
@dagodfather, the venue is not for you but for the interested contestants. once they buy the form, the other imformations is sent to their e-mail. thanks 4 your concern
@mr.china, are you part of this scam? as a responsible citizen, its is my duty to warn innocent would be victims, but to be honest any one with a brain who uses it for its intended purpose can see SCAM written all over it. its not rocket science.
Oh! Plz dnt b jelousy if u dnt hv the beauty let thz who hv it use it.if nt interested dnt mind
@Editor, dont be silly im not into cross dressing! a beauty-talent SCAM to get as many payments they can and maybe 36 Months later they may get a letter about the venue? or maybe not. NO AGE LIMIT, NO BIKINI, NO TRIBALISM, add NO WISE WOMEN

So am looking at the flyer and am wondering which country Nigera is.
Hello chris, Can you peopose something like Ghana got talent. Its Copy work, yes, but its a way to explore the talents in the Country. The presidential debate copied from America is an outstanding one. i think this type of programmes are money making for the organisers.
