She called attention to herself when her photos hit the media last
year and she described herself as a lady with "enviable curves".
But actress and musician, Kisa Gbekle, seems not to have anticipated
the backlash she has been receiving since then.
"Yes, I posted the pictures myself and stated that I was blessed with
curves that other women will do anything to possess but the fact that
I did that doesn't mean I am irresponsible", she said in an interview
with Showbiz.
"I am not a bad girl as some people are taking me to be. Sometimes,
when I go on social media, the comments are just too much. For a
couple of months now, I have been receiving messages from men, some of
whom call me all kinds of names. Others are even so blunt to ask me
how much I will take for a night. This is just too much."
Asked if she had regretted posting such pictures and creating such a
unfortunate tag for herself, she said; "no I do not regret any actions
of mine. I wasn't forced to do that, I did that out of my own will,
but that does not justify people putting me in a particular box and I
refuse to fit into that box.
If everybody is judged and stigmatized by what they put out there then
this world be a hell of aplace to live.
"That is not to say that people do not have right to express their
opinion rather they should not take advantage of someone's acts and
push them into a certain corner. How can you inbox me andask such a
question?" she added.
"We're into is showbiz and everything I put out there, is purely on
showbiz terms therefore, what we put out there is not who we are.
It is time Ghanaians get to understand that so that they do not marry
these two together. I am not a bad girl.
"Even though the release of her two singles; Twerk and Anaconda did
not make much impact, Kisa is not ready to let go of her dream of
pursuing music.
"I am not backing down with my music, I believe that there is time for
everything, I love music and the fact that I didn't make headlines
with these songs doesn't mean I will give up. I am currently working
on another single which will hit the market soon."
Movies Kisa has featured include Accra Runs, 8PM, The Will, Accra
Hustler and The Miser TV series.
Kisa started acting in secondary school in various stage dramas
andaccording to her, she always came out as the best actress in such
school programmes.
Upon completion, she joined the Volta Regional Theatre group and
gradually learned the ropes of the profession. From there, she
enrolled into Ghallywood Academy and completed as one of the overall
best students.
