We were first introduced to her on Instagram and later got a glimpse into her life as Royal AM (football club) chairperson, Andile Mpisane’s baby mama.
Sithole Shozi is now no stranger to many as she has worked her way to our TV screens in a new international show called The Masked Singer.
Kicking off the interview with Drum, she says it feels surreal to have been a part of a production of that magnitude.
“Not that I have never imagined myself in the space, but I just think I hadn’t planned or thought of it in my head for something that could happen right now. It still kind of feels like an out-of-body experience but it’s also just so phenomenal, it’s a really beautiful journey and I could never take any of this for granted.”
As she sums it up with an “I’m grateful”, she takes us back to where the journey started.
When she received a casual call from Anele Mdoda who owns Rose and Oaks, the production company behind the show, she had just returned from Turkey where she went under the knife and was in recovery.
The essence of the call and a few other calls that she received from her as weeks went by were merely to get her to watch UK’s version of The Masked Singer.
