Actor and TV show host Harold Amenyah has revealed he lives a very normal life unlike many other celebrities here in Ghana.
Speaking to JoyNews Becky, the actor said that unlike what people assume being a celebrity is like, he likes to do everything by himself including running errands.
He added that he hates it when other people do those things for him.
Asked about what is it like being in the limelight, Harold Amenyah said “I don’t really know what it means to be a celebrity. I only dress up and show up at events. If that’s what it means then that’s what I do that probably makes me look like a celebrity.”
Touching on how he survives under the spotlight, the actor said a person must have the mental fortitude to survive in Ghana.
“You need to be mentally strong, in the sense that you’re not moved by what people say. Of course, it’s good to have compliments, it’s good to have fans, and it’s good to have people shower praises on you but guess what, if that gets to your head then trust me their criticisms and negative comments will also get to you. So it’s good to have balance.”
