Berla Mundi does not sound Ghanaian; is it your brand name?

What name is on your birth certificate?

You just popped up one day on TV and caught our attention.
I did not just pop up. I have gone through the mill and paid my dues. I have said this story several times about how I also had my learning days. I am still learning though.
We have not heard the story. We still think you popped up.
I have had my very humble days and I still do. I did Miss Malaika in 2010 and I placed third. So I told the organisers, Charterhouse, that I wanted to do TV. They had just started GhOne and they agreed. When I finished university, I went to do my national service there and there was an opening because Naa Ashorkor had to go to school and I stepped in and it was good.
Then, they tried me once on Rythmz TV because it was just Blackboy and they wanted a balance so I went in just to do entertainment. The first day, I was shaky but they encouraged me and I had to continue to do that on TV.
Pretty easy ride to the top. That is almost like popping up.
Listen, let me tell you what I used to do before I went on TV. I was a chaperon for Miss Malaika and I remember I was carrying boxes of water into the bus; I was making sure everywhere was clean and it was some way. When the time came for them to travel, I was left behind. But, I did not let go. I kept serving. I remember I was in the marketing department for six months and I did not sell a thing!! I was that terrible as a marketer and then I was shifted back to TV. I did not pop up. I remember seeing all the stars take photos and I admired them and said to myself that soon, my time would come.
What gave you the courage to decide to do TV?
Well, this is what I have always wanted to do.
But Ghanaians criticise a lot.
Well, Ghanaians were receptive towards me.
