Beautiful actress Nana Ama Mcbrown has said there have been several attempts to end her life while working on set.

She said even though her job may look glamorous and fun it has other life threatening down sides.

Nana Ama said on the TV talk show Restorations with Stacy, her current celebrity status did not come easy.

 "I've been poisoned on set twice. I've been admitted at the Komfo Anokye for two weeks with­out food. I went home with about forty drips or forty-five. Injections, I can't count.

"From day one that I started my work, acting, people think they see you on TV and it's beautiful. No doubt, it is very beautiful. But the attacks that you get, you have no idea of, she continued.

The Kumasi-born actress who has often spoken about her relatively "diffi­cult" childhood said she stumbled into acting after she answered an au­dition call by Miracle Films.

McBrown did not make it at the audition although she got hired to help do costuming instead.

As fate will have it, the bubbly beauty got her chance to act the lead role for that same production.

The movie, Nsem pii, brought her into the limelight and got her career started as she worked her way up to stardom.

Recounting the circumstances surrounding her 2014 motor acci­dent to the hostess, Stacy, she said she had been through many other near-death ex­periences in the past.

"Akua [hostess], my soul 'dieerrr' not even my mother [has a hold of it]. It is for God,she said

Nana Ama who was very close friends with late actress Suzzy Williams, has carved a niche for herself in the Twi language movies and has built a strong and loyal following .

Known for her 'explosive' personality, the talented Kumawood screen Princess has also excelled in roles in English language movies.
