The ‘Wahala’ continues on Friday, 3^rd June, 2011 at the National Theatre, Accra where Chapter 2 of Shirley Frimpong Manso’s ten chapter cinema movie series ‘Adams Apples’ will be premiered.

It does not matter if you have not gotten the chance to watch the 1^st Chapter, though the chapters link to each other, each one can be appreciated and perfectly understood when watched; they are independent of each other as far as understanding is concerned.

You do not therefore have to watch Chapter 1 to be able to understand and enjoy the twisted connections Chapter 2 presents.

If you have already watched Chapter 1, then you have no reason to miss the premiere of the 2^nd Chapter which comes with extra ‘Wahala’.

In chapter 2 of Adams Apples, the day starts off rocky for Kukua Adams as she knocks heads with her new boss over her creative prowess; meanwhile Denu takes a firm decision to let go off the past which seem to rock Kukua’s world even harder.

GC Exclusive: Nadia Buari & Abdul Salam Mumuni Speak On Cannes Red Carpet Saga + John Dumelo Talks About The Whole Cannes Arrangement…

After yesterday’s post titled ‘Ghanaian Celebrities Were Not Recognised At Cannes Film Festival & Therefore No Red Carpet For Them, It Was All Lies…’ which highlighted on certain issues raised by Actress ‘Juliet Ibrahim’ with the visit our celebrities made to the recently ended Cannes Films Festival ( especially the Red Carpet Saga), I decided to contact the various Ghanaians who were in the red carpet photos to hear their side of the story.

In the photos (as seen above) were Nadia Buari, Majid Michel, Fred Nuamah, Alhaji Abdul Salam and Susan Peters. Automatically, I crossed out Mr. Fred Nuamah. As the Organizer of the trip and the person placed at the centre of these allegations; I was convinced beyond reasonable doubt that, he would definitely cook for me some sweet story to ‘exonerate’ himself.

I reached out to Nadia Buari with two principal questions in mind. Was there a real (not fake) red carpet and how did the whole red carpet walk come about since Juliet Ibrahim who was part of the delegation to France has stated inter alia that, the red carpet walk is extremely questionable.

Nadia Buari who was on set shooting a movie gave a good reception for the second time to GhanaCelebrities.Com. Trust me, I had prepared my screaming voice and was ready to scream if she had given me a shout. LOL.

On the issue of the red carpet walk at Cannes, Nadia emphatically stated that, it was a real red carpet and they actually did walk on it. Do you think this will be enough for me? I then asked, why then is Juliet Ibrahim, who was part of the delegation to France seems to suggest that the whole red carpet walk is a dust you guys are trying to throw at us.

Ghanaian Celebrities Were Not Recognised At Cannes Film Festival & Therefore No Red Carpet For Them, It Was All Lies…

Somewhere last week, I had a long separate chit chats via phone with Actress Juliet Ibrahim and Mr Fred Numah (Founder/CEO of Ghana Movie Awards) when they were in France for the Cannes Film Festival.

During our conversation, Juliet Ibrahim who could not believe a false story that was published on our celebrities having been on a red carpet at Cannes expressed her dissatisfaction and shock about the entire Ghanaian- Cannes visit arrangement.

From what I gathered from my convo with Juliet Ibrahim as to what was really going on at Cannes as far as our celebrities were concerned , it seemed our stars namely Nadia Buari, Juliet Ibrahim, Yvonne Nelson, Yvonne Okoro, Majid Michel, John Dumelo and others who were sponsored by the Ghana Movie Awards to the film festival had nothing scheduled for them out there.

They cheaply jumped on planes and went there to walk about as tourists or persons who had come to see the Hollywood stars… Even tourists have aims for visiting places, our celebrities were purely aimless.

It was therefore a big shock to Juliet Ibrahim to have read that, some Ghanaian celebrities out there in Cannes had graced the red carpet. Apart from the issue of red carpet, Juliet Ibrahim also pointed out that, she was not pleased with the way things were arranged for them. There was no hotel rooms reserved for them and they did not have any planned means of transport. Our stars jumped in and out of trains and taxis as if they were ‘I and I’…

I am told the ten Chapter cinema movie series ‘Adams Apples’ will run till February, 2012. This means, we would be fed with one amazing chapter each month. Wow, something to keep us going for the rest of the year when the African movie industry is pretty much dry.

On Saturday, Ghana Movie Awards 2010 ‘Best Supporting Male Actor’, John Dumelo together with Actress Jocelyn Dumas, the host of ‘The One Show’ on Viasat1, Shamima Muslim and Inna Patty-a former Miss Ghana mounted the catwalk to help the German Swiss International School in Accra to raise funds for United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) to support victims of the Ivorian war.

The West African country has been plagued by civil war after a disputed election which led Laurent Gbagbo to hold on to power, rejecting election results as well as diplomats’ efforts to end power struggle.

Until he was arrested, he held on to power because he believed there were lots of irregularities in the elections Allasana Quattara won.

This power struggle resulted in loyalist of both men fighting each other. Several homes were raided whiles thousands of inhabitants became homeless. Speaking to press men, Gretchen Krantz Evans, a parent of the school, also part of the organization of the Fashion Show told journalist that, this is the second edition of the show.

She continued that, the proceeds would be donated to UNHCR to support Ivory Coast. Before the main event, several arts and designs in various forms were displayed at the school premises for interested participants to purchase.

‘Behind The Heart’ – A New Love Movie! The Story Of Two Sisters, Their Friend & A House Boy!

05/17/2011 8:10 am

by GC Staff bG

The African Movie Industry is still very vibrant with movies churning out on weekly basis. Of all the movies being churned out, romance or love themed movies have been the market lead. For whatever reasons, the African movie maker turns to see more relevance in producing love stories, though most of them are fictitious.

Movie makers have neglected other genres of movie making and rather focus on the romance and love stories. As if to say Africans are always in love with each other.

The latest movie with a love theme is ‘Behind The Heart’ from the stables of Stenes Production, the same production house that brought the movie ‘Summary’ featuring Jackie Appiah, Prince David Osei and others.

‘Behind The Heart’ has a blend of stars from Ghanaian and Nigerian movie industries. It stars John Dumelo, David Osei and Vivian Achor. Also on the cast are Nollywood actress Uche Ellendu and Canadian based Ghanaian singer/actress Vida ‘Veeda’ Darko.

Chit Chat With Leila Djansi! She Is Not Shooting Movies In Ghana Again After ‘Ties That Bind’ Partly Because Of Comments People Leave On The Internet About Her!

04/5/2011 4:18 pm

by GC Staff bG

Ghanaian movie enthusiasts, especially die-hard fans of Leila Djansi will be very disappointed to hear that, the movie maker will no longer shoot any more movies in Ghana after wrapping up her latest project ‘Ties That Bind’.

Leila said “It’s 90% true” that she will not be shooting again in Ghana. This, she said at a press conference organized in Ho, Volta Region.

After the press conference, GhanaCelebrities.Com had a chit chat with the founder of Turning Point Pictures, a Los Angeles based production house to dissect more on the news of her moving out from Ghana.

It can be recollected that Leila Djansi did put on her facebook status sometimes back that, she will be using actress Nia Long in her latest movie. Weeks later she wrote up a different status announcing that Kimberly Elise has actually touched down in Ghana to feature in her movie instead of Nia Long.

People who wanted to see Nia Long in Ghana shared their opinions on that development; many said Leila should have waited and confirm who indeed will feature in her movie before going to public with names. Suddenly Nia Long seemed to have been swapped with Kimberly Elise.

“There was no swap. It wasn’t suddenly! I think it was a media thing. You media guys are hungry [not literary]. Seriously, it’s like you are starving sometimes, when something blows up in the air, you grab it and run instead of waiting for the meat, you just want to eat the bones. Just wait for the meat.” She defended herself.
