Celebrities from South Africa have great talent. Some of them are more than just lovely faces, but they nevertheless manage to keep us riveted to our TVs or unable to stop listening to what they have to say.

The country is actually home to a number of well-known individuals with excellent academic qualifications.

I’ve selected eight female South Africa’s most famous and intellectually bright celebs.

1. Candice Modiselle

At Wits University, the South African actress received her honors degree in drama.

2. Rolene Strauss

Doctor and former Miss South Africa and Miss World. After taking a two-year detour from her studies to prepare for Miss World, she eventually returned to complete her degree.

She received her Bachelor of Medicine and Surgery degree from the University of Free State in 2017.

3. Zama Dube

Although Dube already holds a master’s degree, she is already considering furthering her education. She registered at UCLA to pursue a PhD.

4. Ntando Kunene

On the list is yet another previous Miss SA. These women demonstrate that a woman is more than just a pretty face.

Kunene holds a degree in curriculum issues with honors, and she is open about her brilliance.
