Kate Menson: dreamgirl

On Saturday, 29  Nov, 23-year-old Ghanaian, Kate Menson won the 2008 M-Net Face of Africa, makin jer the seventh M-Net Face of Africa.

Kate, we gathered, auditioned for the search in 2006 but didn’t qualify because judges thought she needed to work on developing her physique. t

The Event which was aired live on DStv and viewed by cable subscribers in over 40 countries across Africa, featured musical performances Eric Moyo,  Naeto C,, and Ikechukwu among others ..

Other finalists were Alli (Nigeria), Hamamat (Ghana), Hiwot (Ethiopia), Maria (Namibia), Noxi (Zambia), Joana (Angola), Lucy (Uganda), Sasa (South Africa) and Sola (Nigeria).

Who would have thought that the determined young model would walk away two years later with the star prize of  $50 000, and a three-year modelling contract with O Model Africa, (Oluchi Onweagba-Orlandi’s modelling agency)? Well Kate Menson has not only proven her mettle on the catwalk but have inspired upcomers that dreams can indeed come true. Congratulations Kate!!!
