Popular Ghanaian actress Yvonne Nelson thought she was tall until she met Nigerian international model Oluchi Onweagba Orlandi.
Yvonne who is currently in New York, where her new movie, ‘Folly’, starring Joke Silva, Joseph Benjamin, Alex Ekubo and Uche Jombo was premiered last Saturday, is recognised as one of Africa’s tallest female personalities.
But on Monday the leggy actress, known for her popular and enviable tagline as the actress with ‘the best legs in the game’, admitted she was not the tallest in the game.
“Just when I thought I was tall,” Yvonne expressed shock about Oluchi’s height when she posted photos of herself with the model at Cipriani Downtown in New York.
Oluchi, who grew up in Lagos, won “Face Of Africa” contest at age 17. She has since become an international model and is 1.85m (6 ft) tall. Yvonne’s height at the moment is unclear.
