Peter Andre reveals 'challenge' of working on controversial film Jafaican
Peter Andre has spoken about one of the 'challenges' filming controversial film Jafaican. The film has received heavy criticism since the trailer dropped last month, as singer-turned-actor Andre — who was born in England, raised in Australia and is of Greek-Cypriot descent — was shown playing a Jamaican gangster wearing fake dreadlocks and speaking with a dodgy Jamaican accent. But now, Andre, 52, has opened up more about working on the project, which was recently released in cinemas. 'I think that with the Jamaican side of it, the Patois parts were dubbed over by a Jamaican actor but instead of me miming over the Patois, I had to learn all the [words] that were delivered on screen,' he told the Daily Star. 'They dubbed over me, so that was a real challenge but it was one that I absolutely loved doing.' In the film, Andre plays two characters - as he is also Denton 'Kill Man' Powell. 'Playing Denton I found really a great challenge, I absolutely loved that character,' he added. 'I loved the seriousness of him, the tone changes and it was a brilliant part to play.' Recently, Jafaican's director Fredi Nwaka addressed some of the backlash, in a filmed Q&A shown after some screenings of the film. Asked about the criticism of the trailer, including accusations of cultural appropriation, Nwaka said: 'Do you know what, we live in a world that is so serious right now. 'People are getting sick and dying. This is really serious and I feel like I just want people to leave with laughter, leave with love and this feeling they had back in the day that you could live, laugh and almost take the p*ss out of yourself. 'It's a comedy. Comedies are supposed to make you smile, they are supposed to make you laugh, they're supposed to make you feel good and when you go home, it's a bit of relief from everyday stuff.' Suggesting he viewed the project as a love letter to Jamaica — where part of the film was shot — Nwaka, 53, added: 'Also, another thing is, go to Jamaica. It's an amazing country, man. If you haven't been, go to Jamaica — you'll love it.' Jafaican had its official debut at the Gold Coast Film Festival in Queensland, Australia earlier this month. In an interview with Channel 7 ahead of it, Andre - who deleted his original social media post featuring the trailer following the furore - was asked: 'The trailer did see some headlines about an English-born Australian-raised actor playing a Jamaican character, you know about that. Are you surprised there's been some mixed feedback here or were you anticipating that?' Andre replied: 'Well, to be fair, I mean, I think it's good to get all sorts of feedback. I mean, this is not … it's my first lead role but I've done quite a few roles before. And all of them, I've played different characters.' The Mysterious Girl hit-maker continued: 'So for me, it's acting – I get to do something light-hearted, something funny. Something that y'know is the kind of film I'd wanna watch. So it's almost like a little bit self-indulgent in the sense that I get to do something that I've really, really wanted to do.'

Princess and Junior Andre support dad Peter at screening of problematic movie
Mysterious Girl singer Pete Andre's film role has sparked fierce debate online, with critics accusing it of cultural insensitivity - while he defends it as just 'acting' Peter Andre stepped out with his eldest children, Princess and Junior, at a red carpet screening for his latest film Jafaican on Tuesday evening in London. The family were seen at the Genesis Cinema for the private VIP event, posing for photographs ahead of the much-discussed film's debut. While Andre, 52, dressed in a tailored beige linen suit paired with a crisp white shirt, his daughter Princess, 17, opted for a sleek black jumpsuit, accessorised with knee-high boots and a grey bomber jacket. Junior, 19, chose a more relaxed look, combining a distressed denim outfit with a light-wash jacket. The family appearance follows mounting criticism surrounding Peter's leading role in the film, where he plays a character named Gary Buckle - also known as 'Gazza' - a London scammer who adopts a Jamaican identity to pull off a transatlantic fraud. Critics have accused the production of perpetuating racial stereotypes, citing Peter's dreadlocked wig and imitation Patois accent as problematic and offensive, with some viewers calling the trailer 'mocking' and 'gross.' As one critic wrote: 'This is actually so gross and I don't know why Jamaica is always everybody's punchline. Wishing the worst for everyone involved especially you Peter Andre.' Another added: 'Just saw the trailer for @MrPeterAndre new film disrespecting Rastafari - a religion in Jamaica - and mocking Jamaican culture in general, guess what he plays - a white Jamaican criminal. I want to know why these people don't find stereotypes about their own culture to film.' And a third penned: 'There's a movie coming out with Peter Andre in a dreadlock wig pretending to be Jamaican. Is this really what we're doing in 2025?' Despite the controversy, Peter - who co-parents Junior and Princess with ex-wife Katie Price and has three younger children with wife Dr Emily MacDonagh - addressed the backlash in a recent interview while promoting the film in Australia. Speaking on Channel 7 ahead of Jafaican's launch at the Gold Coast Film Festival, Peter said he was drawn to the script when he first read it three years ago, calling it 'a heist like you've never seen before.' Explaining the plot, he shared: '[Gary] is in a situation where he has to get money to help his [grandmother]. He tries everything and basically comes up with this scheme because apparently Gary looks like this guy in Jamaica who happens to be ready to inherit $3 million. "So he comes up with this planning thinking 'well if I look like him, surely I could just go to Jamaica for a little bit and keep my mouth shut maybe and I'll get the money and help my nan'. And of course, that's not gonna go smoothly at all." When asked directly about the criticism over a non-Jamaican actor playing such a role, Peter replied: 'Well, to be fair, I mean, I think it's good to get all sorts of feedback. I mean, this is not… it's my first lead role but I've done quite a few roles before. And all of them, I've played different characters.' He added: 'So for me, it's acting, I get to do something light-hearted, something funny. Something that y'know is the kind of film I'd wanna watch. So it's almost like a little bit self-indulgent in the sense that I get to do something that I've really, really wanted to do.' Jafaican also stars Wil Johnson, Jamie Lomas and Oliver Samuels, and follows Gazza's comedic attempt to impersonate a Jamaican heir to secure money for his grandmother's care. The storyline has sparked polarised reactions, with some online users entertained by its absurdity while others called it racially insensitive.

Peter Andre Relaxes at Champneys in Henlow He has today spoken openly about how his own experiences with racism as a child shaped the way he sees the world today. 'I remember the bullying and the racism we suffered as kids in Australia and how tough that was,' says Peter, who was born in London to Greek-Cypriot parents before emigrating Down Under aged six. 'But it gave me a deep understanding of what's truly offensive and what's not. 'If someone dressed up with a curly wig and a big nose, doing a Greek accent, I'd probably laugh – it depends on the intention. But if someone said 'I hate you Greeks' or made hateful comments about our skin, that's where the line is. That's racism.'

Mysterious boy: Peter Andre tries to go incognito in Australia as he is slammed for 'vile' Instagram post - and bizarrely uses a fake name at the dry cleaner
Peter Andre did his best to go incognito this week as he stepped out to run some errands on the Gold Coast. The Mysterious Girl hitmaker, 52, is in Australia for the premiere of his first feature film, Jafaican, at the Gold Coast Film Festival. Peter was spotted stepping out to drop off some dry cleaning ahead of the auspicious occasion. Dressing casually for the outing, he wore a form-fitting white V-neck T-shirt that showed off the famous tribal-style ink on his bicep. The Aussie-born singer also wore a pair of dark blue tapered jeans and a pair of white Nike sneakers. Wanting to keep his identity under wraps as much as possible, Peter finished his ensemble with a blue New York Yankees baseball cap that was pulled down to his brow. The Mysterious Girl hitmaker, 52, is in Australia for the premiere of his first feature film, Jafaican, at the Gold Coast Film Festival Peter looked all business as he made his way to a Southport dry cleaners to drop off some clothes, possibly his fit for the big premiere. However, keeping the incognito theme going, Peter appeared to use a fake name at the dry cleaners, to avoid potential swooning from staff. He was seen carrying his dry cleaning ticket that appeared to bear the name 'Dean Roberts'. The singer certainly had no shortage of work for staff, walking into the shop with an array of jackets and shirts draped over his arm. Peter's surreptitious outing comes as he was shamed on social media for taking a family trip to SeaWorld during a recent holiday in Abu Dhabi. The reality star shared a snap of his children walking into animal theme park SeaWorld which was met with disapproval from animal lovers. Alongside the post, he wrote: 'We had the best time at @yasisland exploring all the parks. So special to have the whole family together, there truly is something for everyone. We'll definitely be back!' Unimpressed fans wrote: 'SeaWorld, definitely NOT a place for animal lovers'. Dressing casually for the outing, Peter wore a form-fitting white V-neck T-shirt that showed off tribal-style ink on his bicep 'Great photos until you showed SeaWorld, how sad'... 'Promoting cruel, unethical hell holes for animals, such as SeaWorld. Vile. Way to go @peterandre'. 'I'm so sad to see you visiting SeaWorld, the cruelty around these 'entertainment' parks are obvious and you could use your platform to help end the suffering endured by highly intelligent mammals. Very disappointing.' 'Definitely a no from me, poor sea creatures belong in their natural habitat.' However some of Pete's followers were quick to praise the snaps, writing: 'Beautiful family; We were here in Feb... it was the best holiday 'Beautiful photos, looks like a great place to visit. Wonderful memories made with your family; It was such a great destination, we went last summer and loved it 'Home last Wednesday from my first visit to Abu Dhabi - had the best holiday - gutted I never saw you and your gorgeous family. Great photos.' The Abu Dhabi Seaworld was the first in its history to be free of orcas, after the US-based park stopped breeding the whales in 2016, in the wake of growing backlash, and instead predominantly houses dolphins and seals. The first killer whale was born in a SeaWorld park in 1985. Since then, 30 have been born in the parks, including the first-ever births through artificial insemination. He was seen carrying his dry cleaning ticket that appeared to bear the name Dean Roberts as Peter's preferred pseudonym Peter also recently faced backlash after sharing the trailer for Jafaican. The singer stars as Gary Buckle in the crime-comedy, a con artist pretending to be a Jamaican gangster. Gary, also known as Gazza, must master Jamaican culture in 21 days in order to execute a fraud in London and Jamaica and earn the £35,000 he needs to pay for his grandmother's care. The trailer made one fan question: 'Did I wake up in 1998?!' 'Peter Andre starring as the lead character of a film called JAFAICAN where he's pretending to be a Jamaican and wearing a dreadlock wig is not something I was expecting to see in the year of our Lord 2025 but here we are...' 'There's a movie coming out with Peter Andre in a dreadlock wig pretending to be Jamaican. Is this really what we're doing in 2025?,' another offered. However the trailer didn't receive all negative comments after other social media users shared their excitement ahead of the film's release. One excited fans penned: 'Peter that looks amazing can't wait to see this brilliant'; 'Oh yes!!!! looking forward to this @peterandre can't wait'. 'I wish I could have watched this being filmed'. The world premiere of Jafaican kicks off on Friday night at the Gold Coast Film Festival, which runs until May 11.
