Even though none followers cannot see her post, her bio provides a concise detail of herself, which includes her career line and possible residences. It reads:

"Hadar Busia Singleton, actress/simulation enthusiast. accra~nyc~brasilia."

The young actress's penchant for acting might have been groomed from her mother's successful career. Being born as a blue-blooded member of Ghanaian descent did not come between Akosua, and the dreams of carving a niche for herself in Hollywood.

In 1979, she began landing roles in films such as "Ashanti" and "Senoufo Girl." Some of her other works include "Tears of the Sun," "The Color Purple," and "Native Sun."

Unfortunately, John kicked the bucket a few months ago, after battling stroke, according to the reports garnered by a news source.

Acting isn't the only thing Mrs. Busia has engaged herself in recent times. After taking a break from acting, she began pursuing a quest to reach out to the needy.

Hadar's mom isn't the only influential entertainer in the industry. Her dad, John Singleton, was an excellent director, whose works were commended and nominated during award ceremonies.

Unfortunately, John kicked the bucket a few months ago, after battling stroke, according to the reports garnered by a news source.
