Nana Akua Addo is a German-born Ghanaian model, actress, and film producer. She was the second runner-up in Miss Malaika 2003 and the winner of Miss Ghana-Germany in 2005. She has received awards, including the Glitz Style Awards and City People Entertainment Awards. Since the early 2020s, she has become widely known across West African entertainment media for elaborate, sculptural red-carpet fashion, particularly her annual appearances at the Africa Magic Viewers' Choice Awards (AMVCA).
As of 2017, she was studying acting at the New York Film Academy in the United States.
Addo has starred in films including Destiny's Child, Blood, Wanna Be, Rain, Speechless, Never Again and Tears. She also produced two films, Wannabe and Nukuli (The Masked). In later interviews, she said that although she built her career in acting first, her fashion presence ultimately brought her wider recognition than her film work.
From the early 2020s onward, Addo built a reputation as one of Ghana's most prominent fashion figures, known for avant-garde, architecturally inspired red-carpet looks. Her outfits have regularly generated coverage and social media discussion across Ghanaian and Nigerian entertainment media.
