Yvonne Nelson goes Into comedy

Actress Yvonne Nelson seems bent on proving she is not a pushover as she is gradually becoming the hottest actress in Ghana, especially after her one year controversial ban.

Not long ago, she was rated as the most sought-after actress in Nollywood but back home, her critics started spreading reports that Yvonne can only play romantic roles.

In what seems to be a rebuttal to that criticism, Yvonne has delivered her best performance ever in an all-stars hilarious movie titled ‘Wanna Be’. She said the movie was her 55th Independent anniversary gift to her fans and Ghanaians in general.

True to her words, the movie would be premiered at the National Theatre in Accra on 6th March, a day which marks Ghana’s 55th Independence.

Nelson, together with other stars in the movie- Prince David Osei, Eddie Nartey, Zynell Zuh, Nana Akua and a host of others, will be at the National Theatre during the premiere to interact with their fans, sign autographs and pose for photo shots.

NEWS-ONE sources said Yvonne would also use the event to give her fans an opportunity to see for themselves that she did not wear fake designer stuff as speculated by some bloggers and spread on BlackBerry by a particular female singer known for dressing half nude.

‘Wanna Be’ is a rib-cracking comedy directed by Pascal Amanfo. The movie tells the true-life story of a lower class lady who wanted to belong to the class of the elite in society and therefore painfully lived a life far expensive than what she could afford.

Reports said the script was written based on the life story of a well-known Ghanaian female hip-life artiste who recently topped headlines because of what she wore or failed to wear to a musical concert.
