Ghanaian bloggers are lately increasing in number, steering the wheel of gossip and information across social media platforms, sometimes in a manner, Lydia Forson and other celebrities frown upon.
For the latter reason, the actress has taken a swipe at Ghanaian bloggers who also constantly take a swipe at celebrities with some derogatory descriptions such as being tagged as “ashawobrities”.
In a tweet sighted by pulse.com.gh, the actress mentioned that regardless of the negative image some bloggers project about some celebrities, those bloggers still get paid from whatever they write about celebrities.
“Entertainment Bloggers don’t seem to get that without a functioning industry YOU TOO WON’T EAT” Lydia tweeted to ignite a conversation of how bloggers and celebrities reciprocally feed each other.
She further emphasized her message by adding that “You can mock entertainers all you want, say they’re not celebrities, call them asawobrities- but like it or not, writing about even the lack of respect you have for them FEEDS you”

It’s truly amazes me how each time the BBC calls me for an important conversation; the media in Ghana will copy, paste sensationalize it and do very little digging on the subject themselves.
You’re a joke.— Miss Forson (@lydiaforson) February 27, 2019

The entertainment industry is more than who you see onscreen, makeup, hair styling, music, fashion, photography etc all fall under it.
We employ EACH OTHER.
So if a conversation comes up and you reduce it to nothing, that’s bread you’re taking of YOUR table.
