The search for TLC Entertainment’s (DStv 135) next
African presenter is well underway, budding presenting stars now have just one
week to go until entries close on Monday 22 August.
Today TLC, in association
with official campaign sponsor Colgate Optic White, announced the line-up of
high profile judges who will choose the three lucky contestants that will make
it through to the final public vote.
Featuring a mix of well-known faces, industry experts and
a Discovery Networks senior executive, this year’s judging panel includes;
actress, MC, radio and TV personality, Thando Thabethe; Head of Content at
Multichoice, Aletta Alberts; editor of ZAlebs.com, Zee Dladla; celebrity
publicist and communications strategist, Jarred Doyle and VP of Channels for
Discovery Networks CEEMEA, Lee Hobbs.
The judges will be tasked with whittling down the twelve
semi-finalists to the top three finalists during the Boot Camp stage, which
will take place in Cape Town from Monday, 19 September – Thursday, 22
September. Boot Camp will see the semi-finalists put through their presenting
paces by the judges and industry experts, and Jocelyn Broderick, star of
‘Getroud met Rugby: Die Sepie’, as they undertake screen tests, performance
coaching, fashion styling, plus brand and media training to see who really has
what it takes to host on Africa’s #1 lifestyle and entertainment channel.
