NOVEMBER: SK KHOZA EXITS THE QUEEN' AS SHAKA KHOZA Troubled actor, SK Khoza, who plays the role of Shaka Khoza, got fired from the Mzansi Magic's telenovela, The Queen for the second time last month.
--
The actor reportedly got fired by MultiChoice for physically and emotionally abusing his former fianc e, Mandy Hlongwane.
The 35-year-old actor also got fired by Ferguson Films in 2019 for being unprofessional and having diva tendencies' on set.
He's always in trouble. If he's delaying production, he's involved in child support drama that has been following him to work.
He's not the same person (that) he was. It's as if fame changed him.
