No doppelganger – Meet some of SA’s biggest twin celebs

South Africa is home to the world’s most talented people – the world of acting, music and even our local artists, each person has something unique that they bring which often gives us goosebumps and contributes to the rich diversity of our country.

With people of these personalities now owning their stage in the public spotlight, every now and then there is the odd occasion where one celebrity accidentally gets mistaken for another. While doppelgangers do exist, there is a likelihood that you might be mistaking them for their twin.

In this article, we explore some of the country’s biggest twin celebrities.

Viggy and Virginia Qwabe

The Qwabe twins are best known for their time spent on the local talent show, Idols SA. During their auditions, the twins were pranked into thinking that only one of them would receive a golden ticket. This was a moment that will forever live on in the hearts of fans. They later progressed through but after Virginia got eliminated, her sister Viggy left the show voluntarily as well. With some help from DJ Tira the twins are now household names in Mzansi.

Major League DJz

The dynamic duo of Bandile and Banele Mbere are among some of the country’s most well-known twins. Both these talented individuals have a love for music and know how to glide their fingertips on a deck.

It is here that they might often be mistaken for the other, as Millicent is a renowned actress, television presenter and MC, while Innocent is also an actress, preacher and producer on Skeem Saam.
