Joselyn Dumas Does Not KNOW About Being a ‘Fashion Ambassador for the Africa Park Show in South Africa’ | Organizers Are in Breach of Her Rights of Publicity

Several African celebrities have in the past faced diatribes from their fans for failing to appear at events which they’ve been advertised as guests—when in fact, these celebrities did not even know or had no appearance contract with organizers of such events.

Ghanaian actress/TV personality-Joselyn Dumas has been advertised through several online publications as a Fashion Ambassador for an upcoming event-Africa Park Show to be held in South Africa, starting 19th September to 21st September, 2014—but GhanaCelebrities.Com has gathered; Joselyn Dumas has not been booked for the above appearance.

Speaking to Joselyn Dumas, she mentioned that the organizers made contact with her team to have her at their event but negotiations seems to have failed or have not been concluded. It is therefore shocking that the organizers have proceeded without her consent or any sort of enforceable agreement to use her name in their advertisement as a Fashion Ambassador for their event.

If nothing at all, Joselyn Dumas is worried about the total disrespect the organizers have accorded her brand and their attempt to gain financially by using her face and name in their advertisements, a clear breach of her Rights of publicity.

What most Event organizers do not recognise in Africa is, they can be sued for using someone else’s name, likeness, or other personal attributes without permission for an exploitative purpose—just like the above.

All around the world, people run into unending legal troubles in this area when they use someone’s name or photograph in a commercial setting, such as in advertising or other promotional activities without the person’s express permission.

Joselyn Dumas who wants his fans and admirers to know she is not aware or has not agreed to the aforementioned ambassadorial agreement in South Africa stated among other things that, her lawyers will shoot a letter to these sly event organizers, using her brand/name for publicity without any sort of permission—-be it express or implied.

  1. For goodness sake you have like 2 known movies to your name so if they are trying to give u small exposure what’s ur problem? You are popular becos of ur hips ONLY and the tight clothes you like wear to show those fat hips thts why they selected you. Are u telling us tht if the deal had been successful and u got the money u were demanding would u be bitching to the press. NO you would not! In fact you would be packing ur bags to South Africa so quickly to go and acquire more friends with benefits in addition to the ones u already have so just shut it! You use ppl all the time to your advantage, now tht it’s been done to you, you see how it feels. Aboaa!!

      • Lol but it’s true isn’t it. All her bitching is cos she hasn’t gotten a “settlement” before they used her name. That is all. If she had taken a queue, we would never have heard this story ever. I bore sef! ah!

    • Ha Ha Ha Ha…friends with benefits! I listened to tht interview a few wks ago when she said she prefers friends with benefits to proper relationships. It was hilarious. ashawos united….it’s all abt the money money money……

    • hahaha please take it easy on my girl wai. Her hips dieh it gave her lots of wealths. Miss Dumas is cool but honestly didn’t liked her recent interview a bit.

      • As for tht interview she gave on joy fm Kai! it was beyond shameful and disgraceful coming from a woman who already has a daughter with no visible father. Instead of using yourself as an example to even propagate the use of condoms, you come and talk Nya. Now we can understand how an attractive girl like u can get pregnant soo early without a husband…chasing after friends with benefits lol
        meanwhile if u had been patient, a good man somewhere would have been ur partner by now. Miss Dumas I know u read GC, don’t let sex make you a mother again before love makes you someone’s wife.

          • They all read GC & entertainment news all the time. They comment too. As beautiful as she is, most men would be cautious in marrying such a girl. No man in his right mind would be proud of this. With her mentality of condoning friends with benefits and lose sexual talk, her husband’s friends can easily be beneficiaries too eishhh! Walai!

      • Imbecile…am I the subject here? I can’t stand ppl who digress from an issue when they know they have no point to make. Come and count my legitimate children from wedlock and companies I run. Nonsense

  2. Whether you like her or not, what the promoters did was illegal. Plus she has more than 2 known movies to her name.

    • Since she’s mostly and best known to parade her body, the promoters didn’t think it was a big deal for her to come and parade more of it in SA. The girl can’t wait to use her hips for attention at any given opportunity…promoting her hips in the tightest clothes more than her own movies then she comes to bitch abt being disrespected. Really? How Funny! Promoters will treat u the way they see u handling urself in the first place. Which film again is popular apart from the 2 recent ones with Dumelo? The rest all bombed tht is why she shifted her talent to her hips. even her show on viasat 1 has been allocated to a new presenter. So give us a freaking break. You are the only person who can’t see tht this whole rant abt the promoters matter is purely abt money not legal gibberish. If they pay her more money today, she will be on the first flight without commenting to GC.

      • Wow Francois why so much vile??? What has the lady done to you?? What the organisers did was illegal and that’s it?? What has it got to do with anything tell me?? Wether she was paid or not all she was saying was she hasn’t signed any legal documents to that effect, if she didn’t show up for the event because of all these issues not being addressed I’m sure you will be the first to call her names … Give the girl a break… Adzen? Why so much hate?? And FYI she quit the one show I heard her last season saying her final goodbyes she quit she wasn’t replaced please get your facts right…we all ain’t perfect..

        • My friend what vile, we are talking facts and ur little mind is talking vile. she didn’t quit for your information.She was told by management tht the show is taking a different direction without her. She already admitted she was in talks with the organizers so what’s the illegality? Becos of settlement dispute she blows it up to the press and calls the organizers liars? Is tht right? Why did she engage them in the first place if she wasn’t interested? Just wait….the organizers are also preparing their side of the story which I am fully aware of. There’s always 2 sides of every story so don’t even attempt to bring vile into this discussion.

          • They could have waited for an agreement between both parties t before publishing any thing is all I’m saying..all she’s saying is no agreement has been reached couldn’t they have waited till then? It’s illegal to do that. A lot of organisers do this do this in these parts and get away with it but it’s not right

  3. Francois sounds like she has a vendetta against Joycelyn and yes I said “she” because I’m sure it’s a she… Wow too much hatred won’t take you anywherem..stop it! What the organisers did was wrong. How can they go ahead and publish stuff when there hasn’t been any agreement?? It takes two.. Let’s call a spade a spade…would you say all these things you are saying on here to her face?? Come on she could be ur sister friend etc..

    • I am also an event organizer for you information so I know how this things work when we handle promotions. I am not a she. You must be very paranoid. I won’t engage a blockhead. Sit and wait for the organizers response. You think they don’t have lawyers too? or they don’t cherish their business SMH!

      Reply
      • You are the organizer else why will you be doing this to an innocent person who some people wanted to make money out of her?

        Reply
        • You are very ignorant I see. Completely clueless and also paranoid. I am not the organizer but if u fear my comments, wait till u hear wat the organizers have to say. In my personal experience with events, you strike a deal after both parties talk then you start to promote but out of the blue the “guest” decides they want more money than they initially accepted becos they’ve heard someone else got more. Is tht also right? then u tarnish the image of the organizer as if they never spoke to you? They also have lawyers so I certainly hope they fire back.

  5. Come on guys why don’t you cut the girl a slack? These people in South Africa wants to use her name to make money and she does not have a right to call them out? What has this got to do with her hips or being born 1? Eii Ghanafoa kasa

    Reply
    • And are we lying abt her hips or her born 1 or her attention seeking tight dress sense to attract any and everyone possible. Pray tht she is not exaggerating this story too when the organizers also come out. If we Kasa are we talking lies.
