On Friday this week, South African reality TV star and socialite Faith Nketsi finally shared photos of her daughter Sky who she shares with controversial businessman husband Nzuzo Njilo. For the past year or so, Faith has kept baby Sky’s face hidden despite fans begging her for a glimpse. It would appear her decision was for the best after a troll shared a nasty comment under the post.

Not taking it laying down, Faith slammed the troll who was also blasted by other Twitter users who couldn’t believe the audacity.FAITH BLASTS TROLL WHO MADE DISGUSTING COMMENT ABOUT HER BABY
Posting your child on social media isn’t always the best decision. This is because the internet is filled with all sorts of weirdos and trolls hiding behind fake profiles and made up names.

Faith Nketsi just experienced this after she posted her little girl for the first time.

In the comment section, one nasty troll made a disgusting comment about the adorable little one who Faith had successfully hidden from the world until now.

“Ba mo emetse bo Jolof boys..she gon be twerkin for a plate of egusi,” the person wrote.

Not leaving it at that, Faith responded angrily to the troll and wrote, “F*%k you. I hope you suffer!” she wrote.

MZANSI WEIGHS IN
A number of social media users headed to the comment section to defend the media personality and her little girl. A number of them told the troll where to get off.

“Come on bra, you can’t honestly be this person,” one person said while another added:

“You’re disgusting for this.”

Her makeup stood above the rest. No doubt her pink blazer made the difference.

The now-viral photos have since implicated her age into the mix. Many have tried connecting the dots about the seasoned actress’ age. Jessica Nkosi was born on 20 January 1990 in Empangeni, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. It comes as a shocker to many that she is 33 years old.

MAKING HEADLINES
However, this is not the first time the star has wowed many with her sense of fashion. She was crowned the best-dressed celebrity at this year’s Hollywoodbets Durban July by fans.

The seasoned actress even left many confused after she pulled up on one of the busiest weekends in South Africa with a flat tummy a few months after announcing her pregnancy.

No doubt this was one of Jessica Nkosi’s recent public appearances after announcing her pregnancy, and many tried to connect the dots when the star gave birth.

“I came with two paintings… One I did when he celebrated his 90th birthday. The other one, I did last night. And this other one, I painted when I heard the news. Three paintings all-in-all,” he said speaking live on eNCA.

THE LATE TRADITIONAL PRIME MINISTER TO THE ZULU MONARCH’S FUNERAL
Because of his massive contribution in the country, politicians came in numbers to bid the late Founder and President Emeritus of the Inkatha Freedom Party farewell. Bantu Holomisa, Julius Malema, Nelson Mandela’s grandson Mandla Mandela, and former South African president Jacob Zuma are just some of the high-profile politicians who attended the funeral.

The funeral attendees were encouraged to be on their best behaviour and law enforcement officials patrolled the grounds.

“Mourners attending the funeral service are urged to conduct themselves in an orderly and responsible manner, and encouraged to cooperate with law enforcement officers,” a statement released by the official South African government read.

Meanwhile, the South African Police Services could be seen strategically positioned on ground and in the air in their aim to ensure visibility, safety and security.

South African comedian Trevor Noah has recently made headlines after landing a R33 million deal to promote SA tourism. Many South Africans remain unimpressed with the news citing that the money was too much. However, even with the controversy, there is no denying that the man has represented SA well internationally.

Comedy aside, Trevor is a TV personality popularly known as the former host of the American late-night talk programme, The Daily Show. He held the position for over 7 years, from 2015 to 2022. Additionally, he is an actor, writer, producer, and political commentator.

During the apartheid regime, Trevor Noah’s mother was classified as Black, while his father was classified as White. Trevor himself was designated as Coloured. His parents’ interracial relationship was illegal when he was born, which he emphasises in his autobiography.

CAREER
Noah’s on-screen debut happened in 2002 when he featured in a minor role in one episode of the South African soap opera Isidingo. Apart from this, he also hosted a radio show called Noah’s Ark on YFM. However, when he turned 21, his friends challenged him to perform a comedy routine at a local nightclub.

With amusing tales about his life and friends, Noah entertained the audience, leading to him consistently performing at comedy clubs and receiving positive feedback for his performances. Noah hosted TV shows from 2004 to 2008, including Run the Adventure, The Real Goboza, Siyadlala, The Amazing Date, and Strictly Come Dancing.

Trevor Noah hosted several events in South Africa, including the SAFTAs and the South African Music Awards. He also became a spokesperson for Cell C, a mobile phone network provider. Furthermore, Noah has performed in various comedy shows and has released several stand-up comedy specials in South Africa.

The comedian moved to the US in 2011 appearing on The Tonight Show and Late Show with David Letterman. He starred in a one-man comedy show called Trevor Noah: The Racist and was the Roastmaster in a Comedy Central Roast. Noah also performed in the comedy special Trevor Noah: African American.

THE DAILY SHOW
In December 2014, Noah became a recurring contributor to The Daily Show. In March 2015, Comedy Central announced him as Jon Stewart’s successor. Noah officially became the host of The Daily Show in September 2015.

He hosted the show for seven years and on 29 September 2022, he announced that he would leave the programme to embark on his stand-up comedy career.
