    Fake show in Suriname Toni Braxton. Police are looking for Angel Ventura

     

    Police are looking for:

    Angel Ventura

     

    A woman, named Trina Johnson (pictured above impersonating Toni Braxton), signed a secret contract to 'play' Toni Braxton in Suriname unbeknown to the Surinamese people.

     

    The leader of the organisation, Angel Ventura, from Trinidad fooled the eager audience at the show. At first Trina told the media that she's the manager of Toni Braxton.

     

    At the night of the big show everybody was confused to see the same lady coming on stage to perform as the real Toni Braxton.

     

    The Surinamese policemen are still investigating this case. Meanwhile Toni Braxton is at hard work on her 2009 comeback scheduled by Atlantic Records.

     

    So far, no arrest has been made, since Angel Ventura, allegedly from the US Virgin Islands, and his assistant Signet Samson, disappeared after the concert, without paying several local sponsors, organizations, stage managers and artistes who performed support acts.

     

    However, Trina Johnson was questioned by police, but since she could produce a contract stating that she would perform an imitation act she was subsequently released. Also, local assistants during the show were questioned.

     

    As Toni and her camp were notified of the situation, this statement was issued. "Many apologies to the fans for the mis representation, we are working on finding out exactly what happened and what the whole situation was."
