Girls are all the rage on SABC3 this month with the debut of two new series starring Khanyi Mbau and Tumi Morake, who join Anele Mdoda as solo headliners of their own shows.
Comedian Tumi hosts a new talk show called #WTFTUMI and Khanyi will be presenting The Scoop, an entertainment news and gossip show.
#WTFTUMI premieres this Wednesday (5 July) at 21h30 and will air on Wednesdays and Thursdays, which means that Trending SA has been bounced from the timeslot. It will only air on Mondays and Tuesdays at 21h30 from this week.
This is the official description of Tumi's show:
Each episode, two or three A-listers, ranging from celebs to sports stars and politicians, will open up to Tumi while in the #WTFTUMI lounge, bar or jacuzzi.
They take part in different impromptu games that will ultimately reveal little known facts about them. Tumi might dare to invade the celebrity guest’s privacy and ask them to explain three things; like three items from their handbag or their three latest Twitter direct messages.
She also gives the celeb guest the opportunity to respond to as many social media messages – hateful or loving – in 60 seconds.
The show will also see Tumi engaging with the studio audience and share a bit of banter with her barman. Each episode will end with a performance, either by a well-known music artist or comedian.
Khanyi's Scoop (it should have been called this instead!) features a round-up of entertaiment news and celebrity gossip, covering film, fashion, music etc. It's going to include red carpet coverage of local and international events.
It premieres on Wednesday, 12 July at 21h00.
