I’ve grown thick skin for attacks on social media – Nana Ama McBrown states

Veteran
Ghanaian
actress
and
TV
personality
Nana
Ama
McBrown
has
shared
her
thoughts
on
dealing
with
social
media
and
how
she
manages
negative
comments
about
her
age
and
career.

In
an
interview
on
Starr
Chat
with
Bola
Ray,
McBrown
mentioned,
“I
browse
social
media
occasionally,
seeing
posts
on
TikTok,
Instagram,
and
more.

I’ve
come
across
a
lot,
but
it
doesn’t
bother
me.
After
24
years
in
this
profession,
I’ve
learned
to
ignore
criticism.

“Sometimes
people
say,
Nana
is
old,
she’s
about
47,
and
she’s
lying.
But
I
know
they’ve
miscalculated,
not
me.
It
doesn’t
matter
to
me.
I’ve
remained
relevant,
which
is
why
they
think
I’ve
been
around
for
so
long.”

Nana
Ama
McBrown
also
shared
a
personal
story,
recalling,
“I
remember
watching
a
mother
bathe
her
child
in
a
basin,
and
the
child
was
focused.

Now,
that
child
can
afford
a
mobile
phone
and
still
sees
me
on
TV.
They
might
feel
like
life
didn’t
go
well
for
them,
but
this
woman
is
still
here.
They
don’t
realize
I’m
also
taking
care
of
myself.”

She
highlighted,
“If
someone
was
eight
years
old
and
watched
me
for
24
years,
they’re
now
32.

They’ve
grown
up,
maybe
enjoying
a
beer,
and
still
see
me.
They
think
this
woman
is
still
thriving.
But
they
don’t
understand
the
timeline.”

Nana
Ama
McBrown
humbly
added,
“I
don’t
have
any
formal
qualifications
in
acting,
hosting,
or
anything
I
do
on
TV.
I
learn
on
the
job.
I
was
fortunate
to
work
with
a
wise
man
who
told
me,
we
are
not
stars,
just
ordinary
people.”
