A quote from Samkelo on her exit:

“In my 12 years in the film and television industry, I have played close to 10 roles on South African TV, but where I found a home was on Rhythm City.

I found a place to harness and practice my craft while in the space of real thespians who share the same respect and love of this craft as I do, and that has made it the perfect environment for me to flourish.

My choice to leave this family has come from an inner artistic urge to let go of Lerato, whom I’ve carried for so long and to go forth and find new stories to tell and submerge into.

Also, from an unfortunate case of inertia, that has lead me to stagnancy. I feel braver than ever to go out there and do new projects; that alone has brought me back to myself in itself.

I will leave Rhythm City and Lerato behind, knowing I told Lerato’s story from an honest and textured place. This won’t be the last viewers will see of me, that is a guarantee. Thank you to e.tv, producers, cast, and crew for making my stay such a fruitful and meaningful one.”
