FORMER Big Brother Mzansi housemate Liema Phantsi is coming for everything in the entertainment space.
The season 4 housemate, who goes by the name Queen of England, is on her journey to becoming a musician.
The 22-year-old artist from the Eastern Cape recently shocked her fans when she chose to walk away with R250 000 she won during a game in the Big Brother Mzansi show. This meant she lost out on possibly walking away with the R2 million grand prize, had she garnered the most votes.
Liema is ready to take the entertainment industry by storm.
She'll be releasing her new single titled Impumelelo with well-known singer Busisiwe Thwala, better known as Cici, on Wednesday, 11 April.
"The song is about succeeding and dreams coming true. Cici saw it fit that I do the song with her. It makes sense because that's literally my life story," Liema said.
"It's going amazingly. I'm really happy to work with the likes of Cici as she's doing amazing things as an individual artist. I'm learning a lot from her."

She said she realised when she was 12 years old that she wanted to be a musician. She also mentioned that she tried to go to Idols SA to reach her goals.
"Along the way, I met the right people and found a team. I tried to go to Idols in 2021, and was like, 'Big Brother can open doors for me when it comes to music, and I'm happy'," said Liema.
Award-winning artist and songwriter Cici said working with Liema was easy because she's talented and has a great personality.
“I didn't know her because I wasn't watching the show. A nephew of mine said there's this girl who is called Liema and is good. This year, I was on this thing of wanting to give fresh talent who want to put music out there opportunities to do a song with me so that they're able to push the numbers,” said Cici.
Liema said working with Cici was inspirational. She said she's been listening to her music because it sounded like something she wanted to do.
