Follow on Google News | Actress and Blogger Vida Ghaffari to be Bestowed with a Nollywood AwardBy: LANFA "I am honored to receive this award. As someone of Middle Eastern descent, I love covering and supporting other international film communities, especially Nollywood, which has so many talented artists that are really blossoming. There are some amazing filmmakers coming out of that community and King Bassey, Mark Sevier, Amelia Johnson and their hard working team are doing such a great job showcasing their talents," said Ghaffari. Celebrated actor Ford Austin will be presenting Vida's award to her. Ford is Vida's co-host on their popular facebook live show, "Live with Ford and Vida." The tagline for this popular show is "We never sleep, 'cause the internet is always on!" Ford and Vida bring their knowledge, wit and candor to this show and will do live streaming on the red carpet of the Nollywood awards. Entrepreneur Laverne Tillis will also be presenting the award to Vida. Vida is on a real roll in her acting career. She recently voiced two characters in the award-winning animated film "Lovesick Fool" created by Emmy-nominated director Dominic Polcino ("The Simpsons," "Family Guy," and "King of the Hill"). Acclaimed actors Fred Willard, Lisa Kudrow, and Janeane Garofalo also voiced roles in this film. This comedic powerhouse landed a great co-starring role in Mindy Kaling's humorous and much buzzed about show "The Mindy Project." She has also starred in Comedy Central's "Mind of Mencia" and "Jimmy Kimmel Live". These projects cap off a number of successes for the versatile starlet.
