Media personality Kuli Roberts is happy that Thuso Mbedu is going to be working with Viola Davis and admires her humble nature. As much as Kuli is happy for Thuso, she also took the opportunity to slam celebrities who don't know how to celebrate their wins in private.

"Thuso works quietly, ngesafa ngabanye. There would be posters about every interview and trips to the toilet," said Kuli.

Although Kuli didn't name anyone, fans already had an idea of who she was talking about. Nomzamo Mbatha has been doing the most in Hollywood and has been very vocal about her success, I mean who wouldn't be?
