etv parties to unleash new local content
The twinz say their dress sense will not make the e tolls go awayTVSA blogger Tazteeq and I were in attendence.
For thirteen weeks, the vivacious Twinz are gracing the small screens for the second season of their reality show which premiers in a new timeslot on Saturday, 14 July at 6:30PM.
Season one of BIOF showcased the Twinz’ lifestyle of glitz and glamour as they high-heeled their way through everyday life, mingling with Mzansi’s rich and famous. Viewers got to see what life in Mzansi’s fab lane is like through the eyes of Hlelo and Ntando. Their show created debate and we wondered if it was real. In my analysis of season 1, I wrote:
Nothing Real and Blame it on de Twinz The twinz have since been under public scrutiny with
bloggers taking a dig at their J&B Met attires. However, Hlelo and Ntando feel they should be cut some slack. "We cannot really always take public opinion to heart. People have opinions about everything," protested Ntando when I spoke with her at the party. "Hlelo and I just want to live our lives," she said. Tazteeq had a lengthy interview with them and he will be posting it once he has transcribed it.
Tazteeq is an avid admirer of the twinz and here he is pictured with them at the etv partyIn the second season, Blame It On Fame gets a facelift, complete with a new production partner - Black Brain. In this new and fresh season, viewers do not only witness the fab and the glam, but they also get to see Hlelo and Ntando strive to balance the celebrity lifestyle demands and their family values with their own perceptions.
It’s not all about fame and fortune, bling and spotlight in celebville. BIOF 2 takes a closer look at how Hlelo and Ntando juggle the glitz with their chores, and culture. This new season captures their fears, tears, lovers, and friends, events, celebs, the sweat, the bling and everything in between.
In an interview last year, the twinz said they have different personalitiesIn an interview with TVSA last year, the twinz said as much as they are twinz, they have different personalities, as seen on TV, I add.
The Twinz: spilt personalitiesSays Monde Twala, e.tv Channel Head: “We are excited to bring Blame It on Fame back on e.tv. Last year we had a fantastic season, with viewers tuning in each week to follow the lives of the effervescent Twinz. This season, viewers will get a closer look at not only the glitz and glamour of the lives of celebrities, but also the challenges and cultural demands that most young and ambitious South Africans are faced with.”
Says TT Mbha, Managing Director of Black Brain: “Black Brain is honoured to have been afforded the opportunity by e.tv, to creatively produce a reality television show that we are hoping will scoop a lot of awards. Season 2 is bigger, better and promises to deliver a high quality production with great content. If it is not award winning, we don’t touch it. We always remain true to our slogan: Absence of Colour, Presence of Mind”.
Season 2 promises to enthrall viewersFrom discovering sex toys, to family dramas, to going back to their tradition roots, BIOF 2 promises to be one fun and explosively entertaining season! Plus, the clip we saw last week looked really hot.
When season 1 ended, the twinz threw:
