Nonhle Thema Goes to Hollywood Launch

Written by Cheesa from the blog Cheesa Chat on 08 Feb 2011

So we all know by now that Nonhle Thema has a reality show coming up on Vuzu . The show is called Nonhle Thema Goes to Hollywood. Apparently, initially the name of the show was Nonhle Takes Hollywood. Dunno why they decided to change the name of the show maybe they decided to removes “Takes” since she was/is still trying out to break into Hollywood. Well Nonhle lunched her show recently in Sandton. 

The lady of the night Nonhle Thema. This what she said about having her own reality show.

“I feel totally blessed and nervous to be the first South African personality to have her own reality show in the country or should I say continent on Vuzu. I feel honoured to be given this torch to break boundaries and start something new and bold in South African television. Someone needed to take the first plunge and I am taking the bullet for all other personalities who will soon have their own reality shows. It’s all about making history and opening doors for others, through this show I have learnt just how brave and fearless I am... this is my destiny,” says Thema.

Here are pics of some of the guest who attended the launch: 

Uyanda Mbuli seems to be back in the social scene strong. How many parties has she attended in the past week? Is she trying to stay relevant like in people's face since it seems her DFC isn't getting the attention it got when she started it, I wonder...Oh I'm not too sure about the make up it looks wrong to me.

Slikour's protege Kwesta (right) with a friend Yanga. What is this Yanga doing in the entertainment world or is he just friends with famous people?

Gert Johan Coetzee with a friend akancume usisi.

Sade Giliberti and friend.

Sade 

Siya Ngwekazi who was the MC


Shugasmakx and his BFF Slikour. Why does Shuga look like a woman in this pictures? The smile the hair hayi nie...

Mome Nale. Her fashoni is just that one of the 70s if not 60s. Remember Mercy Phakela? That's what I thought when I saw this picture. She just went wild with colours. And that bra??! Wow this woman!

Jozi performed for Nonhle. She seems to love Jozi I think they peroformed in her Dark and Lovely party or birthday last year, akere?

Ishmiza

Dj Dimplez
I think people who know him are those who mostly go to night clubs and attend the Pop Bottles events. I think he is the man behind it. I've never seen him in any show like other DJs maybe he is what is called an underground DJ? I also know he's friends with Lungsta thats all.

Channel O presenter Sika with his partner. What show is he doing on Channel O?...I wouldn't know anyway. But usually Channel O presenters are famous even to those who don't have the dish.

Vanessa Jansen dunno what she was thinking she's going to when wearing that ingathi uyaphi! You will remember her from All You Need Is Love fame. I think she is a Commissioning Editor of Generations. I always see her name in the credits that's if it's not another Vanessa Jansen. People can have the same name and surname you know.

This is what’s going to happen in episode one of Nonhle Thema Goes To Hollywood:

In episode one, Who Is Nonhle? we learn more about Miss Nonhle Thema. We explore everything from her daily routine, presenting V-Entertainment, a photo shoot as well as her Dark and Lovely Inspiration tour. We catch a glimpse of an intimate yet rather tense meeting between channel heads as Nonhle and her agent Alice break the news of her wanting to leave the Channel (O) that has made her a household name.

Well it seems there’s already a comment about the show that it gives it a thumbs down. “The show is not very anticipated, and it seems television writers have already lost interest or have a negative attitude, mostly because they don’t know what’s going on”. .

So are you looking forward to Nonhle Thema Goes To Hollywood? Which other celeb would you like to watch their reality show?

For me I would like to watch Bonang’s reality show. Since we know that she is a busy person according to what we read. I would love to see how she does all her work, being a presenter, radio Dj, MC, model, handling Baby Star, partying and still be a student on top of that etc. I think it would be interesting to see how her day is like.

Another one is Slikour I think he is interesting and oh Lungsta too . I'm still thinking about others....

The sounds is promising to be big but I am just a little disappointed that it only has 8 episodes. This is one show I am not prepared to miss. Now lemme read.

Vanessa Jansen. People can have the same name and surname you know. Like the name Kim Cloete...i dont know how many people i know with this name. from diffrent sides of the atlantic..so odd.

Eish nna this young lady ke dio mo tsebela me megozing, i am not familiar with her work, i suppose its due to beingt on welfare tv. So that as much as loove reality shows, im not interested at all in hers...
Wouldnt be interested in Bonang's reality show either, i dont get the hype about her at all, the negative and the positive staff.
Mara Cheesa, Lungsta? (thats radu ryt), Slikor ?...aowa Cheesa...why?

Id watch this people's reality shows:
The Motsepes, The Zumas, ...God forbid, but i think i'd watch a khanyi Mbau reality show.... 

Cheesa
08 Feb 2011 11:31

Only 8 episodes???!! Tjo I bet its going to be a 30 mins show. Maybe they are still testing the waters who knows she might shoot more scenes if it does well.

The show is called Nonhle Thema Goes to Hollywood

LOL. This title reminds me of the first ever Nigerian movie I watched.. it was called Usofia goes to London.. and it had that funny Nigerian tata that has killer sarcastic lines.

lemme finish reading.

Eish nna this young lady ke dio mo tsebela me megozing, i am not familiar with her work, i suppose its due to beingt on welfare tv. So that as much as loove reality shows, im not interested at all in hers... kwaaaaaaaa LMAO same here GA I'm not farmiliar with her work and I would not even go watch from a friend's place just to see this show I would if it was Bonang's shem.

Mara Cheesa, Lungsta? (thats radu ryt), Slikor ?...aowa Cheesa...why? LOL GA eish mara dunno how to explaina this yazi uhmmm... uLungsta ne eeehh... eish uLungsta ne....LMAO!!! 

Dunno why about Slikour mara I just think it would be interesting.

Cheesa
08 Feb 2011 11:40

LOL. This title reminds me of the first ever Nigerian movie I watched.. it was called Usofia goes to London.. and it had that funny Nigerian tata that has killer sarcastic lines. LMAO Carino have you always been this funny!!!


The Motsepes, The Zumas, ...God forbid, but i think i'd watch a khanyi Mbau reality show.... I'm not sure about the Motsepe but the Zuma's I would also love to watch it. To see how the Pres jungles all his wives and his 20 something children and how they get along etc.  

To me Khanyi Mbau would be fake I don't know I just think she would be much acting than reality. We won't see much of her real self.

08 Feb 2011 11:43

Kwaa kwaa Cheesa...its very obvious comrade that you just want a Lungsta show for your personal reasons akere, nothing that will be in the interest of the masses...lolest. Atleast sesi Nonhle may just inpsire other young ladies to go to hollywood..or sungthing. 

Slikour a le borokwana so...whats he going to say, im bored just imagining...he might rap, but i dont think he will manage to rap for 2 episode (my strong opinion of his rapping prowess). no no ke a gana..i can help you get a Lungsta show coz i got your back sista...mara Selikho..haaikhona!

Cheesa
08 Feb 2011 11:45

Huuu THE ZUMA's hle bathong. That I wud really love to see

Green.arrow
08 Feb 2011 11:47

Khany Mbau ...i'd watch her to see her be more ridiculous, because i think she is out of this world...ridiculous...And maybe, id watch to see her be human, coz thats usually the hook in reality shows, getting a glimpse of their heart, although uryt, that might be a tall order for Khanyi. But id watch it like i watch The bad Girls Club, no substance..just the shock factor upon seeing the outrageous things that some people get up to.

t’s all about making history and opening doors for others, through this show I have learnt just how brave and fearless I am... this is my destiny,” says Thema.

That's very sweet of her. I can see something similar following on ETV and SABC 1 lol.

Sade Giliberti and friend.
She looks like Sade's boy/girlfriend to me lol. Hayi kabi shem.

Siya Ngwekazi who was the MC
I am still wondering how he managed to win that 2010 best dressed man. The guy just dresses to cover his body nje.

Why does Shuga look like a woman in this pictures? The smile the hair hayi nie...
kwakwakwakwakwakwkawka *and dies*

Vanessa Jansen

LOL! But I think he has his own unique style that only suits him I wouldn't advice anyone to try look like him. Its just Siya's style that goes with his personality.

@Cheesa - I like how you break it down, it comes across as though you were there. Gr8 work:o)

Well it seems there’s already a comment about the show that it gives it a thumbs down. “The show is not very anticipated, and it seems television writers have already lost interest or have a negative attitude, mostly because they don’t know what’s going on”. . 

Why are they negative about something they haven't seen? Yeah, they can be skeptical but I don't understand the negativity...

I think best dressed category should be won by trend setters.

08 Feb 2011 13:58

Eish mina after seeing her on Big Brother last year I sort of lost interest in her. She was not real at all and there was nje just something I did not like about her...she was also a bit immature (the things she said)...I was suprised by Khanyi Mbau's humble(ness) in that show...whether she was faking it or not, it seemed real..

I will not watch this show, I'd rather watch crazy Kuli Roberts life

Cheesa
08 Feb 2011 15:20

She was not real at all and there was nje just something hayi same here Cutie Pie angithi she's a fake I don't know man with all this innocentia thing she portrays and all not t hat I want her to be a straatmaid or anything but ingathi there's some fakeness in her dunno...maybe I need to watch her shows or something. 

LOL!! at myname and Zah000 fighting about Dj Dimplez he is cute shem.

Maki do that chomi we do want a feed back. I don't even wanna comment about 5FM's tv show that I was so looking forward to. Let me reserve my comment for now until I see a couple of episodes. 

Hayi Cheesa isnt his style suppose to be followed kanti?
I think best dressed category should be won by trend setters.
I hear you on the trendsetters bit but I just think his style only suits him coz of his personality. Nami I was a bit surprised when he won the GQ best style something then I thought maybe its because of his crazy unique typa fashion coz sometimes in this fashion thing they sometimes look for something crazy that many people would not be brave to rock, think Somizi on the J&B Met, dunno if Im making sense.

Tjo Cheesa, I remember you were looking forward to your TVSA 5 thingie lol and yuo git disaapointed? Shame! Maybe just give it a couple of episodes and it will get better. Nna I will not watch TV5, I am watching Rivals in Romance at that time.

Is Nonhle hoping to break into the Hollywood market and do what exactly, acting, presenting, modelling - i guess i hav to watch to c what she's hoping 2 achieve.
 

I so wish she can go easy on the accent, fake lashes and weaves.

Cheesa
08 Feb 2011 18:50

Zam Kabelo Mabalane of TKzee. Maddie that's the question I asked myself what is it that she really wants to do there. Coz I only know her as a presenter here eMzansi unless there are some other things she does that I do not know. If she's going to Hollywood to be a presenter hayi shem I'm not sure. I mean what is it that she wants to do in Hollywood as a presenter that she's not doing while she's here in SA. Akere she has interviewed top international stars while she was doing O-Access and now V-Entertainment. Or maybe she's wants to cover the Oscars and Grammy's red carpet or something. I mean even people who are presenters in Hollywood don't get the fame that presenters get in SA or maybe its me who doesn't know them aketsi watch the show people and tell us what the lady is trying to do in Hollywood.

Nonhle has a very weird voice,she must be careful of growing old gracefully phela thos echeekbones will fall flat like isonka esingena Dry yeast. I've also heard the part of her washing Kuli's dishes and that she's mean and stuff. Personally I would watch Bonang;s show over Nonhle's ANYDAY cos shem B does really work hard yazi and she is the hottest black South African woman in the industry at the moment.

I hear Da Les has a thing for the other team *ahem*...mhmmm....these industry tendencies...ja ne.
