ZODWA Wabantu continues to prove that she’s a force to be reckoned with.
The dancer and entertainer recently landed her first major acting role.
She will be playing herself on Black Door, a new telenovela premiering on e.tv soon.
Speaking to Daily Sun, Zodwa said she was over the moon when she was called back for the role.
“This was the first audition I attended and getting a call-back to be part of a show with an amazing cast and crew was a sign that I’m headed in the right direction.
“I can’t wait for viewers to see what we have in store for them.
“Honestly speaking, landing this role was affirmation of my decision to go back to school in 2021 to study acting and performance art.
“If going back to school is something people are thinking of doing, I strongly suggest they do it without even thinking twice. It can work out for them, like it did for me,” she said.
Zodwa, who is known for her raunchy dance moves, is no stranger to the camera as she already has her own reality show. “The setting of the show was no different because tThey asked me not to be anyone else, but myself. It was a walk in the park,” she said.
In 2021, Zodwa enrolled at Star Quality Performing Arts College as an acting and performing arts student.
She told the People’s Paper that despite having a very busy schedule, she managed to complete her course. She is ready to take on more acting roles.
“This is not something I want to do once in a while. I want to do it every day and I welcome any role that will challenge me as a performer,” she said.
