TIPTOPSTARS

Ernest Kanjo / ••Monday•, 14 •March• 2011 20:24•

Little did Rita Zembe’s dad know his little daughter, though little was eyeing her father’s thing – drama. Before he knew it, his daughter was already pulling school crowds who would not spare a moment to rain thunderous applause on her each time she went up stage. That was still the nursery school experience which was eventually going to burst out into the golden gift of professional acting the Kumba-based female actors now enjoys.

Today, 1.64m-tall Rita has become the must-get film star in Kumba and every director would struggle tooth and nail to have her in their movies. “She fits in her role, is fluent, easy-going and a nice person to work with,” said Maru Gatscaya of Rita. Rita is should be recalled emerged as best female actor at the 2009 ACE Awards, having gone in through Gatscaya’s Hotel Vianello. To Gatscaya, Rita deserves more. “Reason why I will be featuring her once again in my next production,” he told TIPTOPSTARS in Kumba recently.

But what makes Rita tick according to the young female actors? “My ability to bring out what I possess,” she told us. She went further: ”I’m always myself on set and deliver my lines with much ease.” It is these qualities you would find in the movie she has featured including Assarori, Where Tradition Fails, Venerated Tradition and Hard Decision.

Rita, from Fontem in Lebialem Division of the South West region hopes to go international. Back home she admires female actors such as Mamfe-based Quinta Eyong Ashu, Solange Yijika, who lives and works in Yaounde and Tanyison Candylaurice, student of the University of Yaounde I. She also sings gospel and would always be found reading or travelling. “These are my hobbies,” she said.
