It is disheartening to read that our own celebs in their little career world are “beefing” themselves. I got to know about the tension and unpleasant relationship between Nadia and Jackie Appiah some months back but decided not to give it any audience.
However, Peacefm has brought it to light and I believe Ghanacelebrities’ readers and the fan base of both Jackie Appiah and Nadia Buari needs to know about the sour relationship between these two top actresses.
The story below says it all and as such I do not need to gist up more on that. However, there is one part of the story that I am not feeling, I mean the part which states that both actresses have not starred in a movie since 2008. Geez! That is wrong; both were in the movie “Heart Of Men” right?. Heart Of Men was a 2009 production. Okay, read below for more on the relationship gone sour between Jackie Appiah and Nadia Buari. Do you think this is happening out of competition, jealousy or…?
It has come to the notice of peacefmonline that the relationship between two beautiful Ghanaian actresses Nadia Sidiku Buari and Jackie Appiah Agyeman has gone sour.
The two who are both Glo ambassadors, no longer see eye to eye with each other, and they have not starred in the same movie since 2008. It is evident that the once good friends are now moving in parallel directions.
Peacefmonline investigations have gathered that the sour relationship between the two started in Nigeria at the 2007 African Movie Academy Awards (AMAA), where they were both nominated for different awards in the same movie. Nadia Buari was nominated for the “Best Actress” and Jackie was nominated for the “Best Supporting Actress, for the role they played in “Beyonce”.
According to peacefmonline’s deep throat sources, there was a little misunderstanding with their passports when they arrived in Nigeria for the award. Jackie Appiah and her manager Samira, Nadia Buari and her mother, Director Frank Raja and Abdul Sallam Mumuni producer of “Beyonce”, were all on this trip.
The source disclosed that Jackie Appiah then had a Canadian passport which made all of them wait for a while, before they were allowed to go. “Everybody was asked to give his or her passport to Frank Raja but Nadia and her mother refused”, the source said.
So Jackie got angry because Nadia and her mother refused to bring out their passports had and Nadia was also angry because Jackie’s Canadian passport wasted their time. This anger and ego between Jackie and Nadia even depended when Jackie won the award for “Best Supporting Actress” and Nadia couldn’t win the “Best Actress” award on the same night.
Chief Executive Officer of Venus Film Producer, Abdul Sallam Mumuni who was on the trip confirmed this to peacefmonline. “I think there is a little personality problem between them. I don’t know if it is ego or jealousy but I do know they are no longer close like they used to be”.
Sallam who is the producer known for casting the two together in movies, said a lot of things happened between them at the 2007 AMAA and even after the awards night, and since then there has been some tension between them.
However, he denied rumours that they have refused to star side by side in the same movie. “I don’t think they have refused to act together because any time I want to use them together in a movie, I will”. Asked why he has not used them since 2008, Sallam said “I wanted to introduce new faces because people were getting fed up with the old faces but I am planning to use them together again very soon because I think I can now fuse them with the new faces.”
Nadia Buari and Jackie Appiah starred in “Mummy’s Daughter” as step sisters in 2006; they also starred in “Beyonce” as rivals in 2007, and then in “The King is Mine” as sisters. They have both won several local and international awards.
Nadia has won ‘Best African Actress award’ at the 5th Continent Academy Award 2009 in New York, and ‘Best African Supporting Actress for the year’ at the African Film Festival and Academy Awards (ZAFAA 2009) in London. She is the recipient of the maiden “Showbiz Honours” organized by Emklan, early this year.
Jackie Appiah on the other hand has two AMAAs. She won the AMAA for ‘Best Supporting Actress’ in 2007, and ‘Best Actress” in the African Movie Acedemy Awards 2010. She has also won an ACRAG Award for ‘Best Actress’. Source:PeaceFM
This is sooooooo not true, I saw both of them at the salon laughing and eating together lastweek, so why do u people like to lie like that?
@amma,yeah yeah yeah, in the salon uh.dreamer
@Opanin, LMAO…Opanin ur becumin like my fellow musketeers Shocker & Cutie…ur comments really make me laugh u know lol
@Soul Sista, heheheheh…Opanin is too much oooo…lol

No you didn’t because I saw them on Arlington Blvd. cursing eachother out real loud, lmbo…don’t take shyyyt you read here so seriously geesh
@Abena_221, looool
here we go!!! I’m waiting for another 350+ comments.
lol
let me just sit down and watch. 😀
@Alicia A., init tho lol
I dun fink dis is true to be honest…I mean I haven’t been “lucky” enough 2 c da 2 of dem in a salon or Arlington Boulevard 2getha (lol) but I just fink dis is anuva case of da media tryna stir up shit
@Soul Sista,
of course!!!
but when watching some of their first movies, it always seemed unfair that Jackie was ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS playing in Nadia’s shadow.
Jackie is clearly the better actress, but i never understood why she was always given the supporting role behind Nadia.
hmmmm, I have my speculations though.
anyway, let the comments begin. 😛
@Alicia A.,for the first time, i think i agree wif u. this is a worls record. Alicia, Opanin on the same page. hahahahahahahaha. funny as hell.as i said, i do agree totally wif u. Jackie looks more natural and she delivers reali well. this is not to take anything away from nadia, sista is gud but Jackie is better.
@Alicia A., i think some roles does not fit her over Nadia when they are acting together.
@john,
yeah right! thats not a good enough excuse.
@Alicia A., the producers decides i think ,and knows who the cup fits also.
@john,
YES, I know that.
and like I said, it was not fair!
Not until jackie “went out” (wink) and finally made a name for herself. If not, she would still be in Nadia’s shadow.
and yes I have my reasons why I think Nadia was always picked over Jackie, but I’m not going to cause WW3 in here. 😀
@Alicia A., lets not drag this not unnecessary ok.
Naa they were not both in Heart of Men. Heart of men only had Nadia-in which she had a minimum role…
@V,
Jackie was in Heart of Men. I guess you didn’t watch the movie.
she was there romping away!
she was the one who drank something trying to get rid of some pregnancy.
i dont remember, but i know for sure she was there.
watch it again.
my bad, yh I remember now. thx
@V,

@Soul Sista, Jackie is taller??…lol..en diye nadia y3 AKAPUIPUI…lol
@Soul Sista,jackie is taller than who?lmao.she is d shortest actress in ghana.5ft 4 tall….lmao
@ladygaga, no she is 5 feet
Who cares?Dey can even kill themselves.They don’t even appeal 2 me anymore especially Jackie.
I doubt there’s tension. Just recently during the AMAA awards, Nadia wished Jackie, along with other stars, luck on her Twitter page. So where the hell did this “source” get his info from? Man, whatever! Media, if you ain’t got nothin’ betta to say, leave it alone and talk about more important things!
Whateves, but on the real Nadia seems standoffish compared to Jackie, everytime u see Nadia in pics with her fellow actors she doesnt seem to connect or even smile with them, whats up with that, I ff her on twitter she seems to be nice.
OMG! why are some people jealouse of Nadia. but seriously she is better than any other ghanaian actress! take it or leave it.
@baby,
LOOOOOOOOL! joker.
some of u people should leave my lovely girl nadia the hell alone. I dont like the fact that some of u people be talking nasty about her. nadia is a very talented actress and speakes wayyyyyyyy bether english than jackie. jackie has nothing on nadia. kackie is short with no good shape and even some of the short people i know have beautiful and sexy legs, but jackie don even have the leg to match her so call beautiful face. mY GIRL NADIA is beautyifu, nice legs, tall and has sexy figer. NADIA ALL THE WAY
@silver,
what do you mean nadia speaks better english than jackie? that fake accent?
AND WILL YOU PEOPLE STOP CONFUSING ACCENT WITH HAVING “GOOD” or “BAD” english.
seriously.
I never knew sounding more oyinbo-ish means having better englsih.
stop that foolishness.
someone with a different accent can still have GOOD ENGLISH.
you can say she is more eloquently spoken than Jackie, and even that doesn’t make sense. but it sure does make more sense than saying she has “better” english than jackie.
abeg.
Nadia is not tall, or maybe she isn’t short either, but i doubt she is tall.
her body may be smaller than Jackie’s but it ain’t all that. did you see that outfit she wore when she was in Nigeria at the delta soap pageant thing? did she not see her backside before she put on that dress?
@Alicia A.,what d hell do u know about dressing up,or accent or english?i bet u r only good at writing but speakin is horrible.go get a life my friend.stop commenting on everything people say.rubbish
@Alicia A., the picture was taking whiles walking and definately would not get a good glimse ,this is not the first time Nadia has worn such a dress ,it fits her well.
@john,
well it was ugly TO ME.
@john,
actually I’m very good at speaking. or are you assuming I have a Nigerian accent? WRONG. but thats totally irrelevant.
and please tell me what you know about accent and english? does someone having a thick accent make their english bad? NO IT DOES NOT.
I’m sure you went to school.
and I will continue to comment on everything, just as you commented on what i said.
so you “get a life”
@Alicia A., you will be worse in your dress who even cares about you MADAM KNOW ALL
@DESS,
i will not be worse because i will never wear anything so ugly.
I will wear something that looks good. and not only will it look good but it will FIT my body type.
come ooooon guys! Leave Nadia alone aaa! I know she is a great actress. I like Jackie tooo but I think she overacts sometimes!
@addy, THE SAME WAY JACKIE WANTED TO DENY LYDIA AND NAA OF THEIR AWARDS, I THINK SHE IS JUST GREEDY AND ENVY OTHERS SHE MUST CHANGE HER BEHAVIOUR
@DESS, Jackie envies other? Hahaha this is one of the most ridiculous speech i have ever heard. Jackie didn’t deny the other acts of the awards okay. I watched the interview on TV and she said she cannot speak for others in public and that is way too professional. All acts do not speak for others, they speak for themselves. Even the movie revolves around Jackie and Chris and those 2 other actresses are just like supporters in the movie. AMMA shoulda done better. How could 3 actresses be nominated for one award. That was very silly and poor planning. Thank God there is no buhaha b/n the actresses as AMMA intends to be among them.
geez! pls stop de beef. i luv dem both
They’d get over it.
Some of u ghanaians are so stupid and dumb as hell, what has being short, no shape and speaking better english got to do with acting. As far as their beauty goes they both bring something diffferent to the table, stop with the comparisons already, my only problem with Nadia is she needs to interact with her fans and fellow actors more, nigeriafilms.com even said it shes not friendly on set when shes done with her scene she goes to her room and its true u can see it in pics with her fellow actors with her body language.
@miss dior, lets not blame her so much some people are like that and i dont think that shoul label her as bad or wicked , may be that was how she was brought up.
ANYONE WHO BELIEVE THIS STORY IS VERY DUMB, STUPID AND A LUNATIC
@ Silver, you don’t have to degrade Jackie to grab attention for Nadia. U must be very mean to think that Jackie is short and has a bad shape. Jackie’s shape wasn’t so visible when she put on weight but after losing it, her shape was far far better.Nadia has her imperfections too u know.Jackie has a much prettier face than Nadia, better shape(Nadia has poor hips,no ass and an ugly mouth with a fat nose) . Nadia always fakes accents and speaks like a pre- school child reading. Jackie’s height is average, so is Nadia’s .I met the 2 at Labone estates and Jackie even looks slightly taller so i think it’s always Nadia’s hills which add some spice to her height. There is no competition at all between Nadia and Jackie cos Jackie is by far prettier,richer, far far affable, more humble , better actress and more elegant. It is Nadia’s color which only gives her some attention though skin color shouldn’t matter in this 21st century. They were even compared on youtube and Nadia had nothing on Jackie.I love them both but i love Jackie the most. Her diction and smiles just make my days for me, not forgetting her lovely face. She is the reigning queen of the movies now(not forgetting the other 2). Kudos to them.
@Lovistic, Nadia had her attention long before jackie.which youtube she is not Nadias march.you dreamer .
@dede, What makes you think so.We knew Jackie since the days of “THINGS we do for Love”. Her attention began from there. She was the young and beautiful teenager by name Enyonam.
@Lovistic,
now i know you are just saying things to tear nadia down and life jackie up.
must you do that?
i had to stop as soon as i saw you saying “fat” to describe nadia’s nose.
EVERYONE knows her nose is not big, but small.
@Alicia A., So u now have Problem with me. Did u not see anything wrong with Silvers comment. I also know how to defend my act too u know.
They are good friends and i remember Jackie saying in an interview that they are like sisters. So this is just a write up to pour insults on them. Those writing negative comments, insults to these 2 lovely and innocent actresses should just pray that they are not judged or treated the same way cos these 2 actresses did not say that they are at loggerheads and have not wronged them in any way. Bad belle people.
@Lovistic, after saying those rubbish about Nadia you turn around to write this ?you hypocrite.
@Lovistic, shame on you for your comments.
@Silver — i agree with you, Nadia All the Way!
@baby, YOU ARE RIGHT
i think each one is good in their own ways ,but jackie seems to be greedy whenever an awards come up look at the tension she created among herself and Lydia and Naa ,she should stop those jealousies.
oh Ghana, when at all will we stop all these petty petty talks. we are grown up and must know how to control our selves.i dont think this story is about bringing someone up some one down.its something that has happened was has been said. now i think the two top actreesess shld have settle this dispute among themselves before it reaches the media. jelousy is normal in such things but its up to us to know how to control our self.pls do settle it among urself
i think they should be friends because both of them act really good they act like sisters but they are not friends it doesn’t make sense
I THOUGHT THIS SITE WAS A PLACE FOR FANS TO READ NEWS ABOUT THIER CELEBRITIES AND ALSO COMMENT..AND AS A MATTER OF FACT WE ARE ALL ENTITLE TO OUR OWN OPINION BUT IT REALLY SURPRISING ME TO SEE HOW some PEOPLE USE THIS SITE TO RAIN INSULT ON EACH OTHER.WHEN SOMEONE TALK AND YOU THINK YOU DONT AGREE,WHY DONT U ALSO GIVE YOUR COMMENT.BUT WE SOMETIMES INSULT EACH OTHER WITHOUT EVEN GIVING COMMENT.I SOMETIMES THINK SOME UNDER AGE PEOPLE COME HERE TO INSULT. i just dont know.
jackie look good for a black woman with ro without make-up nardia only look good in make-up
jackie is bomb and hotter than nordia too she is no competion for jackie
@latoya, you lie ,jackies is good only on the face.
both of all looking good,and i can’t believe this story becouse nadia and jackie are now friend
@zdprisca, you are wrong jackie has got only the eyes thats all .
@Afua, And what has Nadia got? She doesn’t have the face or the body so just spare us ur tantrums.
i seriously think this isnt true but if it is girls better work on the diff and get bak kay
Nadia doesn’t come close in wealth, beauty, talent and attention. Jackie all the way. The beauty queen of ghallywood.
BOTH THEM FIGHTING OR BEEFING? THIS IS JUST ANOTHER TRASH LIKE MISS DIOR THE LOST NEGRO, HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
WELL WELLL WELL WHATEVER WETHER THEY R BEEFING OR NOT JACK IS THE LADY TO GO FOR WHETHER NADIA LYKS IT ORNOT JACK HAS MORE LUVERS THAN HATERS I LYK NADIA THOUGH BUT I THIN SHE’S……..
