Red-hot trouble!
Criminal Mxolisi is out of jail and falling hard for power-hungry cougar Nokuthula.
Nokuthula is ready to sink her claws into hottie bad-boy Mxolisi. Mon-Wed SABC1 (*191) 20:30
After more than a month of prisonstyle orange overalls, gross food and worse company, Mxolisi and Mastermind (Naymaps Maphalala and Ntokozo Dlamini) are going allout to restore their pride by inviting KwaMashu’s glittering and glamorous crowd to a black-tie Getting Out Of Jail party on Tuesday 18 October. But when a gorgeous stranger catches Mxolisi’s eye on Wednesday 19 October, he could be walking from one trap into another. The lovely Nokuthula (Khabonina Quebeka) is more than a cougar on the prowl. “She’s going to sting the whole of Mzansi,” warns Khabonina. “She’s something out of this world. Both men and women are interested in her – hopefully viewers too when they see her.”
HE’S HOT, SO WHAT?
While Mxolisi’s immediately intrigued, Nokuthula isn’t that impressed. “This is what’s so good,” teases a gleeful Khabonina. “When she looks at him she thinks, “Hmm, cute but nah. Timewaster.’ She’s a businesswoman, so if there’s no business within you, you’re wasting her time. But then he goes up to her and says, ‘I am Mxolisi Xulu, this is my party.’ That’s when she goes, ‘Ah! The Xulu family is quite wealthy and famous, so maybe I could do something here.’ And, oh, he’s gorgeous. I hadn’t really watched the show, so when I got to Durbs and they said, ‘Meet the guy who’s going to be playing opposite you,’ and then he walked in, I was like, ‘Oh my! Can we start the scene now?’” Khabonina laughs.
SIZZLING SCENES
Get ready for some scorching scenes between Nokuthula and Mxolisi in the coming weeks. “We had a lot of intimate scenes and crossing-the-line kind of scenes,” hints Khabonina. “He wasn’t weird about it. Where another actor would say, ‘I don’t want my fans or my viewers to see me like that,’ he was like, ‘Yeah! That would be so cool,’ or, ‘Oh! I can see their reaction. Okay,’ so it was really fun for me to play.”
