I was once denied a movie role because of the colour of My skin

Popular Ghanaian actress Yvonne Okoro has revealed that she was once denied a movie role because of the colour of her skin.


However, she says she doesn’t think the issue of colour is still an issue in the Ghanaian movie industry at the moment because a lot has changed over the years.

The beautiful actress cum producer made the revelation while reacting to claims that actresses must look a certain way to get movie roles when she spoke at the African Women in Film Forum held at Alliance Francaise in Accra on Monday.
