Why the South African TV press is laughing at Nonhle Thema behind her back. And why she should forget about Hollywood.


Poor Nonhle. Nonhle Thema tried to conquer Hollywood in her new reality show but now it seems Ms Thema  -or more precisely the people supposed to handle it for her - can't even handle the local South African press.

Word is the dear Nonhle Thema is having the launch of her new TV show Nonhle Goes to Hollywood (I told you everything about already here way back in November) this week, but girl, the people around you and the channel you're on are seriously botching things! Poor Nonhle Thema has simply no idea how the press is abuzz about how bad this is being handled. And isn't the aim with a show launch to get and make the right TV critics firstly aware of your reality show endeavour, and then maybe, possibly get them happy and excited about it? A group of press people - including some of those who actually matter and write about things like your new project - are whispering and laughing dear Nonhle, and let me tell you... it aint good laughs.

With Nonhle Goes to Hollywood (originally titled Nonhle Takes Hollywood) already pushed out to a later starting date from what it was originally and several writers covering television already disinterested and now negatively inclined before its even began because they weren't told about what's going on, maybe focus on conquering and learning how the South African press works first. We don't need to be invited, we just need to be kept in the loop - or how do you think you're viewers will?
