Shalate Sekhabi is a South African media personality who is popularly known and recognised as an actress but she is a musician too.
Born on the 27th of July in 2000, the 23-year-old has been in the entertainment industry for a period of two years now.
She rose to prominence back in 2021 when she started with House of Zwide, portraying the character of Shoki on the drama series.
Shalate Sekhabi is definitely a hard worker and can be described as the jerk of all trades. She is a full time actress, songwriter, singer, and last but not least she recently graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Film and Television at the University of Witwatersrand in Johannesburg.
Dexterities for entertainment probably run in the family as she is the daughter of Audrey Sekhabi. Masses speculate on whether the actress’s fame is due to the award winning, writer and administrator being her relative. As Shelate is not one to brag about her father’s fame, she lets her flair speak for itself.
The knack for the Arts manifests at a tender age of 8 years. It is only after 6 years that she is cast in A Cup of Sugar and in Making a Killing. This sees her landing a cameo role on The River playing Millicent. When she bags the role of Shoki on HOZ, she immediately becomes a fan favorite.
Studded with looks and the brains, the actress is definitely booed up. She however leaves fans speculating as she keeps her love life under wraps. Suitors continue drooling over her pictures and she makes it a point to slay.
From her modelling career, acting gigs and music, Shelate is in her bag. Her single Trust is now on all digital platforms and is definitely keeping the money rolling in. Sekhabi is worth a whooping R800 000+, and this is only the beginning.
This beautiful young lady is one whom so many young people look up to. She has proven to the youth of South Africa that their dreams can be a reality only if they put it the work.
Unlike most celebrities who are constantly dealing with cyberbullying and toxicity from people on social networking sites, Shalate Sekhabi has received so much love and support from those people. They are the reason she has been nominated as a best supporting actor and the reason her music is slowly but surely recognised. Some have left their compliments of the comments section.
