Woaaaaaaaaa look, how Ghanaians take such actors seriously? An actor who can only be recognized in a movie by describing he or she as:- The slave who stood on the left side of blah blah blah, the guy holding a machete, the messenger who was thrown into well ect ect is nothing serious to write home about.

When laziness makes you display your shallow mindedness! Anyone born in America is an American irrespective of the parentage. So don't use Ghanaian names as basis for nationality. There is no Ghanaian in your list! You could have rightly said famous actors who have Ghanaian ancestry. Idris is full British! His parents were originally from Ghana and Sierra Leone.
I wonder what Ghanaweb has turned out to be now with no editors to check what is published!

Well we can't be proud of these things. For how long shall we sleep in slumber of colonial mentality. you can realise that non of them were born in Ghana or fully born to Ghanaian parents even the ones born in Ghana left at a tender age. The question is what is here that prevents us from nurturing our talents. If they were all born in Ghana, I tell you non of them would have been what they are...

"He’s a Ghanaian born in Ohio, U.S.A. to Mr. Kwame Amoaku and Mrs. Komla Amoaku."

HOW CAN THIS ACTOR BE BORN TO 2 SAME SEX COUPLE ? Kwame and Komla AMOAKO are both men.

Most of these guys are not Ghanaians. Common social studies teaches that the fact your parents are from a certain country does not necessarily make a citizen of that country. Most of these guys have never step foot in Ghana but we want to be quick in associating with them as Ghanaians. If we want people to celebrate, let us celebrate those we know with certainly are Ghanaians. Those we grew up here with, paying taxes to our govt and going thru de same hardships we are experiencing!
