Makhadzi set to become Crown Chasers’ first celebrity judge

Following her recent success which saw her walk away from The Best International Act at the annual BET Music Awards held in Los Angeles, fans of Ndivhudzannyi Ralivhona can expect her to appear on their screens very soon.

The Limpopo-born singer who is well known by her staged name, Makhadzi, was announced as the first celebrity judge to appear on this season of the Miss South Africa pageant reality show Crown Chasers.

Here, the 28-year-old will appear alongside resident judges Leandi du Randt and Lerato Kganyago as they find themselves in the decision-making seat, determining who they believe could be a step closer to becoming the next Miss SA.

Her appearance on this week’s episode could not come at a better time, as she not only won a BET Award but did so on her 28th Birthday.

Congratulating her on her achievements was the CEO of the Miss South Africa Organisation, Stephanie Weil.

“You have done the nation proud. You are an inspiration not only to our Top 16 contestants but also to all young South Africans.”

“We are delighted that you are our first celebrity judge this year. We know that viewers are going to love all the action taking place in the upcoming episode, which coincidentally is a celebration of our heritage and being Proudly South African,” said Stephanie.

Makhadzi is set to make her appearance this Saturday, at 20h30 on S3.
