Personality Of The Week: Juliet Ibrahim



One of the prettiest actresses in the Ghanaian and even Nigerian movie industry, and a prolific actress, Juliet Ibrahim, has said so much about herself in a recent interview. The hormone-stimulating actress has a family background that cuts across Liberia and Lebanon.
Juliet who shot into limelight after her movie with Majid Michael in 2007, is always the cynosure of all eyes anytime she steps out at red carpet events.
According to her declaration to gistmaster,”The s*xiest part of me is my personality. Once you get to know me well, my easygoing nature and bluntness will make you like me more and more. I know most would expect me to mention my shape and other features but i believe that no matter how beautiful and sexy one is on the outside,it’s the inner beauty that counts.
On her happiest moment as an actress Juliet said “It would be the fact that i get to live my dreams. Acting is my passion, i get to act as well as be a mother, wife, a business woman,a humanitarian and a role model to millions of people out there.

Generally,Ghanaian films are grabbing so much attention. Some attribute it to the romantic scenes and the way it is done with full graphic details. Juliet says,all well and go but she won’t go unclad as an actress. Well,we wouldn’t say if she would change her mind if she is offered millions of dollars.
“I believe all the movies i have shot can speak on how far i could go. My limit is never to go to the extreme. I am an african and a proud one with good morals hence i stand firm by those morals,would never do anything to set a bad image or name for me in society”
“Nollywood and Ghana film industry is nowhere near hollywood for one to choose to be ready to go unclad in a movie”
“In hollywood people go unclad in movies because they are hardly not the ones in the scenes,rather their body doubles. They are also paid very well and it’s a society that accepts indecency as an everyday thing,unlike africa” she said.
Juliet Ibrahim was born to a Lebanese father and a Liberian mother in Accra, Ghana. Juliet was raised in Ivory Coast and Lebanon; however, she currently resides in Ghana permanently. Juliet made her official big screen début in 2005.

In an interview, Juliet revealed she had been biding her time and was waiting for the “right time.”  She said her decision to start acting was stirred by watching movies such as “Princess Tyra” and “Mummies Daughter.”

Following her role in Crime to Christ, a series of rumors ensued, romantically linking her to costar Majid Michel, however, Juliet quickly refute it, citing her friendship with Majid’s wife. Despite been relatively new on the movie scene, Juliet is working alongside big names  such as Van Vicker, Majid Michel, Emeka Ike, Ini Edo to name a few.

In addition to acting, Juliet is an intelligent savvy business woman who owns and runs her own Beauty Parlor as well as a Marketing and Advertising student at the University Of Ghana-Legon. She currently has an NGO, the Juliet Ibrahim foundation... Now married with a child.
