WEEK AFTER WEEK, viewers and the live audiences of TV3’s GHANA’S MOST BEAUTIFUL are getting the picture.

The TV network is not looking, necessarily for a facially beautiful lady.

As the total picture forms it is evident that the search is for a lady who is a total Ghanaian — a sort of cultural personality who embodies what is most beautiful in the traditions of the country.

Having attacked and condemned negative cultural practices, the stage was set two weeks ago for the girls to showcase their knowledge of the rich traditions of their respective regions. Having been queenmothers, they have also been tested in their knowledge of traditional instruments.

Tomorrow’s edition is along the same lines. This time, the girls will be required to display the extent to which they are familiar with traditional marriage rites.

They are going to prove to the discerning audience that they know the inside-out of how marriage is contracted in their traditional areas — the dos and don’ts, the rituals and the ceremonies.

The executive producer of the show, Mr Sammy Adanu who disclosed this, said the seven ladies for tomorrow’s event will not leave the stage without offering messages to climax the celebration of Mother’s Day.

Talk about the sad moments of the show, since the eviction started.

Last week Rafiatu was evicted from the house after a keenly contested performance. It was a moment of trauma, and tears are not a scarce commodity on such occasions.

What was the other contestant from Ashanti doing when it came to the moment of truth, with only two girls left to decide?

Was she praying?Was she chanting?

Her lips were moving and her eyes fixed on a distant unseen object. For a moment it was scary.

Sad, isn’t it? Mr Adanu said there would be an eviction party for the three evictees at Coliseum Night Club today.

Sad climax to a beautiful beginning. The ladies opened the show with a beautiful choreography, a dance related to the people of Anlo in the Volta Region known as ‘gahu’.

Each of them then showcased how drums are played and their respective meanings, names and the occasion on which they are used in their various cultural backgrounds.
