Tusker’s Project Fame courts media

Sep 10, 2006

IS it so hard to have a press cocktail, even when it is for the highly-billed Tusker Project Fame? Apparently, the press had other options on their plate on Saturday night at Silk Lounge because the turn up was no more than a handful.

IS it so hard to have a press cocktail, even when it is for the highly-billed Tusker Project Fame? Apparently, the press had other options on their plate on Saturday night at Silk Lounge because the turn up was no more than a handful.

However, the party had to continue and what better way to kick-start than to employ the charismatic skills of one of the best show hosts in town – Mitch.

He joked about the necessity to have alcohol consumers who are above 18 in which context he reffered to Timothy Bukumunhe as a grand dad. He said Project Fame was going to create new stars.

As expected, there was no shortage of Tusker Malt Lagers for both the press and Uganda Breweries (UBL) officials. This was an easy crowd for Ngoni boys to rock.

“Tusker Project Fame is about untapped musical talent that needs to be given a chance at super stardom. The four contestants from Uganda will be hand-picked by judges during the auditions which begin within two weeks at the Garden City.

If you are aged between 18 and 30 and need a shot at a musical career with the renowned Galo Records in South Africa, this might just be your route,” Hilda Karamagi, UBL’s marketing director, remarked.
