“Bringing together a mix of iconic Top Billing presenters and exciting new talent was a very intentional decision.
"This season is about honouring the legacy that audiences know and love, while evolving the show to reflect the energy, diversity and ambition of modern South Africa,” Bradley van den Berg, Chief Operating Officer at Cardova Productions and Executive Producer of "Top Billing".
Zozibini Tunzi
The people's forever Miss Universe, global trailblazer Zozibini Tunzi, has been carving out quite a reputable name for herself on the South African small screen, and now she is joining "Top Billing".
Tunzi made her television series debut as the host of the very first Miss South Africa television show, "Crown Chasers", in 2023. That same year, she co-hosted the 17th Annual South African Film and Television Awards (SAFTAs) alongside Lawrence Maleka.
Sine Mpulu
Call it the power of manifestation or divine intervention, but after his persistent calls for "Top Billings" return and creating his own TikTok version of the show, Sine Mpulu joins the new season as Top Billing’s dedicated social media presenter.
Sine will extend the Top Billing experience beyond the television screen, taking viewers behind the scenes, sharing exclusive moments with presenters and guests, and driving real-time conversations across the show’s digital platforms.
Bryoni Govender
Miss South Africa 2023 runner-up Bryoni Govender's big on-screen moment has finally arrived; she is one of the new presenters.
Not only is she book smart, being a legal professional, but Govender has carved her name for herself, with the lifestyle brands that she works with. Govender is also seen at A-list events in Johannesburg. She has a strong following and connects with a new wave of young South Africans who are both purpose-driven and ambitious.
