I can exclusively break the news that the
super steamy Mexican telenovella
Pasión Morena is coming to South African TV screens, with Fox Entertainment (TopTV 180) that is adding the torridly terrific telenovella to the schedule starting Monday, 25 July at 17:30.
The sexy soapy sudser with 185 hourlong episodes that was broadcast in 2009 in South America will run on weekdays on Fox Entertainment.
Pasión Morena (dubbed into English) brims with hunky Latin gentlemen and super sexy ladies involved in all kinds of tempestuous storylines and matters of the heart. In classic South American soap style the clothes in
Pasión Morena are more off than on when jungle passion soars - they even remove clothing before they start to fight.
The main characters are Morena and Leo and their on-again, off-again stormy love relationship - think Eden and Cruz in
Santa Barbara - just way, waaaay more passionate. Morena (
Paola Nuñez) is a young fashion designer who is betrayed by her fiancé days before her wedding. She flees and finds solace on a paradise island where she of course meets Leo (
Victor González) who's mother was murdered.
Of course there's lots of jungle lust and super sexy love scenes in
Pasión Morena, diabolical enemies, secret identities, Morena's ex who wants her back, family secrets about Leo's past, the powerful rich Sirenio family, amnesia, a devastating fire, disfigurement, the unscrupulous Cassandra who wants to dig her nails into Leo, assassination and all the other delicious stuff super soaps are famous for. Once the soap starts it will have an omnibus broadcast of the week's episodes on Sundays at 14:30.
