Nhlanhla is from Witbank in South Africa, and is a
Business Analyst, Actor and Model with an Honours degree in Information
Systems. He loves fresh butternut soup, lamb shank & vegetables and
cottage cheese pie. His favourite books include Animal Farm and The
Great Gatsby and he enjoys Game of Thrones, Shameless, Suits and Heroes
on TV.
He lists Brad Pitt and Will Smith as two of his favourite actors.
His favourite place in South Africa is the Groenkloof Nature Reserve in
Pretoria and the best things about the continent as a whole are the
people and their strength & resilience. Amsterdam made a big
impression on him at a young age when he went there and learnt a lot
about himself and personal growth.
His mother is his role model, because she sacrificed a lot to get him
where he is today and taught him a great many things. Together with his
Grandmother, she has influenced his life a great deal because they were
always strong-willed and gently guided him through life.
Nhlanhla entered Big Brother Hotshots because he’s been a fan ever since
he saw his first season on DStv. “I just knew that I wanted to be on
the show myself, and wanted to take the opportunity to have my
personality spread all over the world”.
He thinks having the continent’s
eyes on him 24/7 will be “nerve-wracking”, but says it’s a great
feeling knowing he’ll be watched by the continent and can influence the
viewers.
He describes himself as “crazy, eccentric, narcissistic, energetic and
spiritual” and enjoys the fact that he’s always positive and optimistic,
and always sees the beauty in others.
