The Queen mother who rose to prominence in the media scene for her role on Ghanaian diaspora show \u2018Greetings from Abroad\u2019 believes there is the tendency to become condescending and disrespectful with increased attention and fame.<\/p>\n
Awindor who is also mother to songstress Efya stressed the penchant to lose one\u2019s way when pride overcomes reason.<\/p>\n
\u201cBeing a star doesn\u2019t change you and doesn\u2019t make you more human than others. I know people who after they had become stars wanted to look as if they were sitting on the clouds,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
She rather admonished celebrities to stay humble and work harder.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think you should remember where you are coming from and be as humble as you can. Work hard, hard work has never killed anybody. Hard work does pay. So work hard and expect that God will keep you going. Otherwise, I have seen people sinking,\u201d she told Nana Adwoa Sarkodie of Citi News.<\/p>\n
Nana Adwoa Awindor gained prominence in the \u201990s with her popular television programme\u2019 Greeting from Abroad.\u2019<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
