Thembisa Nxumalo shares behind-the-scenes clip

Thembisa Nxumalo is getting ready for the premiere of her new show, Icebo Labantu, and has just given Mzansi a look inside the stellar production.

The actress and former Our Perfect Wedding host posted a hilarious behind-the-scenes video, where she was asked to repeat a take after already going over her lines.

Nxumalo, who is the estranged sister of Anele Mdoda, can be seen in the video closing off, turning her back and dancing off before her director calls her back for another take:

"I mean, that's the take, but just one more, one more."

In the comments, Thembisa sang her director, Portia Hlubi's praises, saying she was one of the best in the business:

"Portia ‘one more’ Hlubi. One of the best directors in this here industry."

Icebo Labantu is a show aimed at helping families in need who cannot afford to bury their loved ones.

According to controversial TV producer Legend Manqele, it was inspired by the COVID-19 pandemic, which saw thousands of families struggle to give loved ones dignified funerals.

The show is expected to hit the screens on 6 July 2025 at 17:30 on SABC 1.
