CELEBVILLE is flourishing with Mzansi celebs building and buying houses left, right and centre.
So far, celebs such as King Monada, Makhadzi and Ntando Duma have revealed their new houses.
Entertainer Queen Skolopad has joined the list.
The soon-to-be published author took to social media to share that she is building herself a home.
She posted pictures of the house and said she’s trying to build something better for herself because when she tried to build a brand as an entertainer, she became a joke.
Skolopad shared an anecdote about her mum and how building her brand has brought her enemies.
“My mum once said you’ve tried building a brand and we supported you, but all you received was hatred and made yourself some enemies.
“This year, I said: ‘Mama, I want to build myself a house’. She smiled and said: ‘I’ll still support you’,” she wrote.

“Here I am. In just three months, I’ve managed to build myself a house that I would one day call a home. Ngibonga umusa nga nkulunkulu nokungipha isibindi namandla (thank God for giving me the courage and the strength to do this),” she wrote.
Her followers on Instagram congratulated her on her new home.
