The show airs on Mnet and Masasa portrays the role of a Journalist, Kwanele Losi.

As she made her debut Masasa tweeted ” Suprise”, and fans took to the platform to congratulate her on the new characterMasasa recently made her triumphant return on Scandal after exiting the show in 2016. Her return lasted for a couple of months until she was gunned down by Mthunzi. Her death left her legion of fans heartbroken and they soon flooded social media with posts, paying tribute to her and expressing how heavy their heart is following her death.

Speaking to Tshisalive Masasa explained that when she received a call to come back she was going through a lot emotionally.

“Returning to where I’d started my career really rattled me. A few months ago, I got a call from Scandal!, telling me they wanted to bring my old character back. To be quite honest, I had mixed emotions about it. So much about me had changed, and I wondered if going back would do the character any good, and how it would be perceived by the public.

“During my last days at Scandal!, I was personally going through emotional turmoil. That, I suppose, assisted in how I played the character. Therefore, I knew that how I approached Thembeka this time around would have to be different.”

During her break, Masasa juggled a couple of acting gigs, from theatre to TV. The Thespian also headed back to school to further her studies.

A few years back she told V-Entertainment that she will soon cut her teeth in directing, proving that she is a woman of many talents “Very soon I’m gonna take up an opportunity to direct a theatre play. It’s still in a very sensitive stage right now so I can’t really chat about it.”

Congratulations on your new role sis.
