5 minutes with Mbali Nkosi

accreditation

We caught up with the sassy reality star, TV host and actress for a quick chat. Mbali Nkosi (1) Has acting always been your dream? Yes it has. I went to an arts school so I grew up doing musical theatre, drama and knew it was something I wanted to do. Starring in Rockville gave me a chance to hone my skills because the more you do something the better you get at it. Do you feel Big Brother Mzansi launched your career? Definitely! It helped me get the exposure, and I wanted to get noticed by the right agents and people in the industry. What do you love most about your character Violet in The Queen? Wow, I love it. I’m happy I landed the role. Violet is so different from me, there are no similarities and it’s been a passion project for me as I wanted to challenge myself. Who are your industry besties? I have a couple, but Thembi Seete is like my big sister. She’s amazing and her longevity in the industry inspires me. She has always been there and a great support system. Someone who I didn’t know before we worked together on The Queen is Dineo Moeketsi. She is a beautiful person inside and out. We are real close. Who are you dating? [Laughs] Why do you always want to know? I’d rather not say much but, yes, I am in a relationship. What more can we expect from you this year? There’s more coming from The Queen. I have other things in the pipeline and I’m busy with a presenting gig. Also, I can’t really say much about this but I’ll be going back to something I used to do.
