Miss African Spirit pageant has announced that talented and beautiful Karen Stally has agreed to sit on the panel of judges for this year’s event. Miss African Spirit 2011 will be held at Ramada Encore in Milton Keynes on 25th June.
Karen began modelling in 1993 when she was crowned Miss Zimbabwe, and represented her country at Miss World, held in Sun City, South Africa. A career as a model/presenter/actress continued in SA and Zimbabwe, during which time she represented top brands and made feature films and TV series for broadcast as far afield as USA, Europe and Australia.
In 1994 she dabbled in music with A Peace of Ebony and together they won the Radio France International ‘Les Descouvertes’ Award for Best African Group. They consequently released a single on The Putumayo World Music label.
Karen has lived in the UK since 1998 working for the most part as a professional actress, taking roles in known programmes like ‘Casualty’ ‘The Fugitives’ and ‘Doctors’. She has toured the UK extensively with theatre productions, and used drama to design and facilitate workshops for the self-development of youth in our communities.
More recently Karen has begun carving out a music career, touring top London music spots. Under the name ‘Zuwamusic’, she was a nominee for ‘Female Artist of the Year’ at this year’s Zimbabwe Achievers Awards. Her debut EP “An Acoustic Intro…” is due out before summer, and her single ‘Diamonds’ is one to look out for. Find out more about this exceptional artist : www.zuwamusic.com
