Juilet Ibrahim: Ghanaians judge me by my skin color.
Famous Ghanaian actress, singer , philanthropist and model , Juliet Ibrahim claims that Ghanaians only believe she ’ s on screen because of her skin color but not because she ’ s a talented actress.
According to Juliet Ibrahim , she didn ’ t face a lot of challenges coming into the movie industry but her challenge has always been how to disabuse people ’s minds that she ’ s only on screen because she ’s fair .
She said such comments hurt her a lot and she prays people will begin to judge her based on her performance in movies rather than her color.
I didn ’ t face a lot of challenges when coming to the industry but the challenges I face outside of the industry or to grow bigger as I ’ ve grown now is everybody out there who thinks that because she ’ s of a colour , that ’ s why she ’ s still on the screens or that ’ s why people still use her . People have just refused to look beyond that but I want them to judge me or classify me based on the fact that they think that I can act and not just because of my colour . I ’ m trying so hard to make people at least try and watch my movies so that they can be able to see that I ’ m doing this. ”
