THULANI HLATSWAYO: I AM FOREVER GRATEFUL' The talented actor Thulani Hlatswayo's character Ceejay is in trouble with the law in Scandal! after Busi Lurayi's character, Me'Shell accused him of rape.

Hlatswayo tells Sunday World:
I don't think there is a problem with dating older women. They are a lot more heavy-minded people, so it's easy for them to manipulate one into thinking a certain way and believing things from their end. This is something young men should be aware of at all times.
He also thanks the late Busi Lurayi, who played the first Me'Shell before Thuli Thabethe recently took over the role.
I am forever grateful to her for helping me with the storyline, and may her soul rest in peace.
His character is well educated but unemployed, gets a job as a gym instructor, and meets an older and beautiful woman, Me'Shell, who pays him for being her personal trainer and sleeping with him.

Hlatshwayo also tells the publication that he's had his own fair share of shortcomings in real life, which have now helped him tell the story of Ceejay.

PREPARING FOR HIS SCANDAL!' ROLE Thulani Hlatswayo also watched a movie called After Burn, also about a personal trainer who gets into trouble.
The movie made me spot the highs and lows of the storyline, and I read about GBV [gender-based violence] and I was able to tell those people's feelings through my character.
Exciting times ahead because I am really going to challenge the character into learning more about being seen and being heard. Without having to steal, lie or kill, because there has to be a way to make it without falling victim to crime.
