Scandal!’s Gcina Nkosi opens up about financial struggles during the pandemic
Scandal! actress Gcina Nkosi was one of the many Mzansi actors who were affected financially when the Covid-19 pandemic lockdown was imposed on Mzansi for the first time, reported Briefly News.
The star, who portrays the character of Zinzile Ngema in the e.tv soapie, has opened up about how she struggled financially because she couldn't work during the hard Level 5 lockdown.
She said she has a 'no work, no pay' contract with the show. She and many other actors who are freelancers did not make any money when the TV industry was shut down to curb the spread of the coronavirus.
In an interview with TshisaLIVE, the Scandal! star said she couldn't even afford to pay her rent at the time.
