Contemporary Ghanaian gospel singer and pastor, Helen Yawson says she is open to taking up any acting role.
According to her, she has always had an undying passion for acting and theater while growing up.
But things took a turn when she started doing music. However, now she has realised it is not late for her to achieve her acting ambition and she is determined to accomplish her dream.
Pastor Helen Yawson spoke in an interview on Joy Prime’s Prime Morning show with Roselyn Feli.
When asked if she would accept any role if cast, she said "definitely."
Recounting her days in school, the singer went on to say that "I was always in theater things, acting and singing. I remember when I was filling out my form for university; I had Mass Communication and Theater Arts. I was always in the direction of arts. I wanted to be an actress but it’s not too late. I’m still going to do it.”
However, she said after traveling to the United Kingdom, she gave her life to Christ which led to her music career.
Madam Lawson believes being in a musical environment, her father, being a lover of music, subconsciously influenced her current career path in a way, even though she never thought of pursuing it.
“My dad loved music; he had a plethora of genres, so I would listen to everything. He had pop music, country music, and indigenous music. He would play all kinds of music, and I would just soak it all up. I would sing along and write down the lyrics. It was heaven for me,” she added.
