FM’s Kofi Laing says he doesn’t dress for recognition but for himself.
One thing that the host of the late night Express and Celebrity Fashion presenter
stands out for, is his style and panache. Thus a lot of people
expected to see his name in the nominees list for the just ended Glitz
African Style Awards.
In an interview ,
the “classic man” submits about the awards; “like Hello Magazine I
think. Glitz Style Africa celebrates personalities from different walks
of life and their commitment to style and fashion…I am the new kid on
the block so most people don’t know me.
I am still just over a year in
this business and to be honest . I am sure they had a pool of talent to
choose from.But by the way I love it when people love what I wear but I
actually do it for myself more and not for recognition ”
Glitz Style Awards is
an opportunity for the fashion industry to celebrate and promote the
extraordinary creative talents in Ghana and Africa as a whole.
When
asked what next for him in terms of his career, he discloses “hoping
to make my late night show the most sought after in Ghana ….still
continuing with my fashion show on TV which is in its 18th episode, I
want to produce another documentary soon.”
Kofi, since bursting onto the Ghanaian media scenes has done 6 documentaries for Adom TV and Joy News Channel,all on Multi TV.
He currently runs a production firm Kings Crown media in Accra.
