Just like Kylie Jenner, Kim Kardashian, Rihanna and Selena Gomez have used their popularity to enter the business world, these five Ghanaian celebrities are charting their own paths to immense wealth.
From ambassadorial deals to entrepreneurship, they have shown the ambition and savvy needed to reach billionaire status. Let’s take a closer look at these trailblazing women.
Nana Ama McBrown
Nana Ama McBrown has always been a fan favorite in Ghana's entertainment scene, known for her versatility as an actress and TV host. But McBrown is more than just a star on screen — she is an intelligent businesswoman.

With numerous ambassadorial deals, she’s become a household name with which many brands want to associate. Beyond these endorsement deals, Nana Ama is believed to have privately invested in various companies and brands.
Although the specifics of her business portfolio aren’t publicly disclosed, it's clear that she’s sowing the seeds for long-term wealth. If she continues on this path, with suitable investments and business growth, she could join the ranks of global billionaires.
Efia Odo

Efia Odo is proving to be more than just a social media influencer and actress. Over time, she’s shown solid entrepreneurial instincts. Notably, she announced her bikini line and ventured into the food industry, showcasing her interest in diverse business opportunities.
In addition to her entrepreneurial ventures, Efia Odo is also making moves in music. She’s exploring the world of recording and performing; it only takes one global hit to transform a career.
With strategic business investments and a potential international music breakthrough, her fame could skyrocket, bringing in royalties, lucrative bookings, and business deals that could accelerate her journey toward becoming a billionaire.
Fella Makafui
Fella Makafui
Fella Makafui has always had a reputation as a sharp entrepreneur, even beyond her acting career. She has likely started more businesses than she has appeared in films. After making waves with her wine shop — though now closed — she continued to diversify, venturing into film production and cosmetics.
Her cosmetics line, Beauty by Fella, could be her golden ticket to significant wealth. Just as Kylie Jenner turned her makeup brand into a billion-dollar enterprise, Fella’s cosmetics business has the potential to grow massively, especially in today’s beauty-obsessed world. If she maintains her entrepreneurial momentum and explores more global markets, the billionaire mark might not be too far off.
Deloris Frimpong Manso (Delay)

Deloris Frimpong Manso, popularly known as Delay, has transitioned from a successful media personality to an impressive business mogul. Known for her hit TV and radio shows, Delay has expanded her influence far beyond entertainment.
Her business portfolio includes Delay Sardines, Delay Mackerel, and the newly launched Delay Bread. These ventures have made her a household name not only for her media skills but also for her entrepreneurial acumen.
Delay's rise to billionaire status seems almost inevitable, with a chain of successful businesses already under her belt and more likely in the pipeline. It’s just a matter of time before her product line becomes a household staple in multiple countries.
Lucky Lawson
Luckie Lawson
Lucky Lawson, a known Ghanaian actress, has taken a break from her acting career to focus on managing her restaurant, Mangose Restaurant, located in the bustling area of East Legon. Especially well-managed and popular, restaurants can become cash cows, and Lucky Lawson is capitalising on that trend.
Lucky’s restaurant profits will keep growing as long as people continue to dine. With careful investment and business expansion, Lawson could build an empire that rivals the success of other global hospitality moguls. If she diversifies and continues to make savvy financial decisions, becoming a billionaire isn’t a far-fetched goal for her.
Kafui Danku
Kafui Danku
Kafui Danku is a multi-talented actress, film producer, and now a political activist. She has produced high-quality films, and there’s a strong potential for her to break into global markets such as Netflix, which would bring her substantial wealth. Film production can be highly lucrative, and Kafui has shown she has what it takes to create hits.
Tracy Boakye
Tracy Boakye
Tracy Boakye is another Ghanaian celebrity with the potential to become a billionaire. Known for her lavish lifestyle—regularly flaunting luxury cars, designer brands, and large sums of money—Tracy has demonstrated that she knows how to enjoy her success. But more than that, she’s a savvy businesswoman interested in real estate.
Tracy has revealed that she rents out one of her homes in the upscale East Legon neighbourhood, a sign that she understands the importance of passive income. Additionally, she has produced movies that have premiered abroad, showing her interest in global opportunities.
Suppose she continues along this path with more real estate and film production investments. In that case, there’s no doubt that Tracy Boakye could reach millionaire status soon and eventually work her way up to becoming a billionaire.
These seven Ghanaian celebrities are more than just stars; they are savvy businesswomen who are diversifying their portfolios and growing their brands.
Whether through beauty lines like Kylie Jenner, or the entertainment-business synergy like Selena Gomez, these women are proving that with the right strategy, fame can be transformed into vast financial empires.
