‘BBTitans’ star Thato Mokoena-Mthombeni bags another TV role

Thato has scored a role on Mzansi Magic. Meanwhile, another BBTitans star is nominated for 40 Under 40 SA Awards South Africa.


Congratulations are in order to Big Brother Tititans (BBTitans) and Big Brother Mzansi star Thato Mokoena-Mthombeni.

The TV star has bagged an acting gig on Mzansi Magic’s new series Magaeng

Thato will be starring alongside other industry giants like Tina Mnumzane, Khabonina Qubeka, Themba Ndaba, and Thato Molamu.

Announcing the news, entertainment commentator Phil Mphela tweeted: “Former #BBMzansi housemate, known to her fans as Thato Immaculate, will star in Magaeng − a new series coming to Mzansi Magic this month. This follows Thato’s stint on The River playing Nthabiseng Maleka.”

The Big Brother star scored her first TV acting gig on The River last year. She is also a dance and fitness studio owner.

“Dreams come true, prayers get answered. If you know me, you know this is my daily prayer. Jesus, you’ve been good to me. May I decrease, and you increase. May you be glorified through my life,” she wrote, celebrating her first acting gig last year.
