Ghanaian actress Fella Makafui lost her spot on the popular TV series YOLO before its final season ended. She told Pulse Ghana that producers kicked her out without giving specific reasons for the decision. The actress originally auditioned for a character named Emily but received the role of Serwaa instead. Serwaa worked as a bread seller which reminded Fella of her childhood helping her mother with similar work.
Fella disliked playing the bread seller character because it brought back memories she wanted to forget. Directors had to reshoot her first scene because she frowned during the entire performance. The actress struggled to connect with the role that felt similar to her real-life experiences growing up.
After leaving YOLO behind, Fella started building her business empire with different ventures. She launched Fella Clothing as her fashion brand and expanded into selling wine and liquor products. The drinks business proved challenging for someone with her personality type.
Fella admitted that promoting alcohol requires social skills she lacks as a person. The business needed someone outgoing who enjoys meeting people and attending events regularly. She recognized that her quiet nature made it difficult to succeed in the liquor industry.
