Nintendo Switch Apex Legends ft. Akeem Mair and Wesley Mair 🎮
youtube
Apex Legends, a video hero battle royale game developed by Respawn Entertainment and published by Electronic Arts, announced a casting call for two brothers to appear in their commercial last December. Akeem received an email announcing the details, and seeing that real-life brothers were needed, it immediately gave him the idea to convince his brother to audition with him. The opportunity instantly made him recall memories of him and his brother, Wesley Mair, playing Super Nintendo when they were kids and how they would absolutely suit the roles. Without batting an eyelash, Akeem excitedly got in touch with his agent Sarah Angeli from Commercial Talent Agency and asked her to sign him up, along with his brother, for an audition.
In his mind, Akeem only wanted to grab the opportunity. If Apex Legends does not like him and his brother, he has decided to just move forward and be on the lookout for the next potential project. Much to his surprise, he received word from the Apex Legends team accepting his interest to audition together with his brother. Akeem’s joy at the moment he received the confirmation was priceless to say the least.
Without wasting any time, he immediately got in touch with his brother as they needed to submit their audition the next day no later than 10 in the morning. The night before the audition, Akeem barely slept a wink. The next day, however, he was up by 8 AM and rushed to his brother’s place to set up the studio light and green backdrop. Both Akeem and Wesley agreed to play the Apex Legends video game while delivering the script on camera, believing that this approach would catch the attention of their potential employers.
As it turns out, the Apex Legends production team loved the two’s ideas. They finally got a call a few days later to come in the next day to meet the director Shelley Lewis, who found their audition so original and authentic. The day they met Lewis, Akeem and Wesley were made to perform the script all over again, this time with actual console controllers and headsets. Both
Lewis and producer Nathaniel Greene could not stop laughing at the brothers��� natural chemistry. After their first try, they were asked to do another scenario. This time, Lewis asks them to pretend to be bickering back and forth, which became a natural execution for Akeem and Wesley as they always fight over video games.
In January this year, Akeem and Wesley did the commercial shoot for Apex Legends, a first for them as brothers. If there is anything that Akeem learned from the experience, it is that sometimes the best experiences in life are those that involve family. His once-in-a-lifetime experience with Wesley and Apex Legends is definitely one for the books.

Akeem Mair wins $500 on Let’s Make A Deal! 💰💰
youtube
The iconic TV show Let’s Make a Deal has been a part of countless American homes since 1963. The show created by Stefan Hatos and Monty Hall has been a source of family entertainment for the past 30 years and has been passed on from one generation to another. Professional actor Akeem Mair has always been one of those who was fascinated by the show, and it is for this reason that when the opportunity to be part of the program presented itself, Akeem did everything possible to get it. 
Initially, it was Akeem’s cousin who received the invitation to appear on the show. Fortunately for him, his cousin had no interest in it and instead presented the idea to him. Without any delay, Akeem emailed Valeria Pitman from Pitman Casting about his interest in being a contestant on Let’s Make a Deal. A few days later, Akeem received a response and got invited to an interview with casting producer Jerry Artukovich. The interview went well for Akeem, and when asked which game he wanted to play, he went for Go Big or Go Home. 
Three months after his interview, Akeem received an email from casting associate producer and coordinator Chelsea Spence informing him of the show’s desire to have him on the program. Elated with the news, Akeem prepared for the big day enthusiastically and decided to wear a Green Lantern costume. He was only allowed to wear it, however, if he covers the logo on his chest. Evelyn Bradfield, the contestant producer, gave him the exciting idea of putting a Zonk sticker so he can go as Let’s Make A Deal’s superhero, “Zonk!” 
Before the taping, Akeem checked out Let’s Make A Deal’s Twitter page, where the Quickie Deal items were listed: a mustard packet, an eraser, and a roll of pennies. He went out to secure the mustard packer and a roll of pennies. Much to his utter surprise, Jonathan Mangum turned to him during the show and asked if he followed them on Twitter. He then proceeded to ask Akeem if he happened to have a packet of mustard with him. And because Akeem did have a packet of mustard with him, he got to win $500. For the promising actor, being on the program was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that he will never forget.
