It
is expected to be an exciting event which will attract a number of showbiz and
fashion icons.
The
event used to be Mr. Split Personality Talent Show but was changed to Mr &
Miss Split Personality because organizers, Shades and Powder, added a female
segment to the show.
It
used to be an all-male talent hunt event which sought to unearth the Ghanaian
guy with the greatest ‘split’ personality. Organizers defined ‘split
personality’ as being able to switch from one mood or temperament to another;
the ability to think and act with speed, being eloquent and being creative.
The
winner should be able to best combine all the above traits.
Judges
would assess contestants in the above areas in order to ascertain which
contestant best qualified to be supported in a professional career.
This
year’s event will be the third and the facelift is as a result of calls on
organizers, since the show’s inception, to give ladies a chance to also exhibit
their intelligence, creativity and talent.
With
the hype increasing already, hopes are that the female side will make a
significant mark during this year’s edition.
Organizers
assured this year’s winners of lots of exciting prizes such as DSTV pocket TVs,
BlackBerry phones, clothing from Mr. Price and Woolworth, and juicy hampers!
All
selected finalists underwent an intensive two-week training programme which spread
from acting techniques to commercial modeling.
Tomorrow night, each finalist will be expected to create their own
unique but interesting concept to illustrate a particular ‘mood switch’ in
front of a live audience.
