When you look at Ama K. Abebrese and Abraham Attah, they don\u2019t even have ten movies to their name but they\u2019re in Hollywood and that is what they stand for,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<p>The actress stressed further that \u201cit\u2019s not about the quantity and we have some actresses who have featured in about 100, 200  movies and still counting but have not even crossed boundaries.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Is that what I\u2019m looking for? NO! I have about 60 movies to my credit and people don\u2019t even know because they were very trashy. I think I was one of the few women who started producing and the first lady who produced her movie I think, was Lucky Lawson.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Often referred to as Ghana\u2019s \u2018Slay Queen\u2019, the actress who was spotted wearing a red gown with a supposed 24 karat gold face jewellery at the just ended All Africa Music Awards (AFRIMA), also explained her reason for patronizing Nigerian designs over Ghanaian ones.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne thing I\u2019ve realized about Nigeria is, when you wear them, the love is amazing. Unlike Ghana where, when you wear your own Ghanaian designer\u2019s design, you have people criticize them and not appreciating what they\u2019ve done,\u201d she explained.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut in Nigeria, regardless of whether the dress is trashy or not, they\u2019re proud that you\u2019re even wearing them and wearing them well. So basically, anytime I go to Nigeria to do any event, I like to wear a Nigerian design and the feeling is amazing,\u201d the actress concluded.<\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: 31 updated by: -1 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start of html generated by this->footer() -->\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Entertainment of Thursday, 16 November 2017 Source: Myjoyonline.com 2017-11-16 Nana Akua Addo Red carpet star and actress Nana Akua Addo has hit back persons who are criticising her for not appearing in movies but rather always wear fancy clothes on the red carpet.
