People make mistakes, “politicians make mistake” and she believes that she would “owe it to Ghanaians” to apologise to Ghanaians for misleading them.

her world exclusively because it might be blocking the chance of another person interested in her.

However, the host of the cooking show, “Dining with Cooks and Braggarts” said she does not

like to tell a guy what she expects in him because they

tend to act how she describes and it can get a little irritating.

Listen to her full interview from below:

It’s obvious that talent alone cannot sustain one to the fullest these days.

Many musicians have already made this known and have ventured into other business avenues.

The situation in the music industry, seems not to be too far and different from that of the movies industry.

Almost the long-serving artistes and actors are now adding another source of income to that of their talent.

Actress cum producer, Yvonne Okoro seems to agree with the fact that, talent alone is no longer paying.

According to the actress, taking acting as full-time job is not advisable because the movie industry is gradually collapsing.

She told Abeiku Santana on the ‘Atuu’s Show’ aired on UTV, that currently the movie sector is faced with unsolved challenges for so long as compared to before.

“The movie industry now does not have enough producers and finance. It’s all because there’s no money in the industry lately. The actors and actresses have now turned into producers, which shouldn’t be so.”

She added that, it will not be advisable for up and coming actors and actresses to take film making as their full-time jobs.

“There should be something aside acting you can perfect at. Acting does not fetch money in Ghana right now. Compared to Nigeria where they have over 20 cinemas and a larger population as well, a good movie can sell in all cinemas and make huge sums of money, it is not so in Ghana. I’d advise these up and coming actors to go to school, get a constant paying job and maybe do acting for the passion of it.” She said.

Yvonne Okoro however revealed that, she has another source of income apart from acting and producing.

She explained that, she is a real estate developer, a job she learned from her father.

Aside that, she is also a law student at MountCrest University College

She went on to explain that she might see something that will maker her angry and write a harsh reply. This would bring about a maelstrom she wouldn’t be prepared for.

“As for me I don’t check my fans’ comments because I don’t want to go and read any post from a mean person”, she said.
