Mbatha thrilled about Africa entertainer award win
IT SEEMS like hanging out with Oprah Winfrey wasn’t just a casual holiday fling after all!
Back in December, the internet buzzed with excitement as Nomzamo Mbatha was spotted rubbing shoulders with the queen of talk shows. And now she’s back in the limelight, shining brighter than before and Mzansi couldn’t be more proud.
The multi-talented businesswoman and actress, who sealed the deal with the Creative Artists Agency in 2020, has been on a meteoric rise since September 2022.
That’s when she landed the lead role in the much-anticipated series Shaka iLembe, which premiered on Mzansi Magic in June 2023.
Not content with just acting, Mbatha also wore the hat of executive producer, proving she’s a force to be reckoned with in the industry.
Fast-forward to 2024 and Mbatha is now basking in the glow of the prestigious Forbes Woman Africa Entertainer Award.
This accolade, bestowed upon her by the Forbes publication, celebrates the continent’s most inspiring women excelling in various industries.
Taking to Instagram to share her joy, Mbatha wrote: “It all feels like a dream. Thank you Forbes! Thank you Forbes Woman Africa. I’m going to hold on to this feeling for a mighty long time.”
@ladydu_sa, who was once praised for her support for colleagues in the industry, commented: “No drama, no blogs, no slaying, no weird vibes, we see you working, we see you travel, I love you so much, you inspire me beyond measure sis.”
@berlamundi commented: “Congrats hun. This is definitely worth celebrating. You have really worked for it. Well done.”
While @yayarsa wrote: “You have worked so much, you are such an inspiration to many of us. Your dedication to what you do inspires us all.”
