Best And Worst Dressed Celebs At The 'Real Housewives Of Lagos' Launch In Johannesburg

Best And Worst Dressed Celebs At The ‘Real Housewives Of Lagos’ Launch In Johannesburg. The Real Housewives of Lagos (RHOLagos) is now streaming on Showmax, after trending at number one on Twitter since Thursday.

“Seeing The Real Housewives of Lagos trend at #1 on Twitter in South Africa confirms what we knew all along: that this is going to be not just a hit Nigerian show but a pan-African one,” says Candice Fangueiro, head of content at Showmax.

The latest edition of the hit reality TV show franchise follows the opulent lives of six of the most glamorous women in Africa’s largest megacity: businesswoman Carolyna Hutchings, lawyer and luxury hair brand owner Chioma Ikokwu, Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo, influencer Laura Ikeji-Kanu, PR expert Mariam Timmer, and celebrity stylist Toyin Lawani-Adebayo. In true Lagos style, they will be serving up all the high fashion, luxury, drama, and power-moves that the franchise is known and loved for globally.

South Africa’s biggest stars turned out en masse in their finest at last night’s pink carpet South African premiere, hosted by Bonang Matheba at Summerplace in Sandton, Johannesburg. Chioma, Iyabo, Mariam, and Toyin all jetted in for the event, where they were joined by The Real Housewives of Durban’s Annie Ludick-Mthembu, Jojo Robinson, LaConco, Londie London, and Nonku Williams. Twitter had a lot to say about who had the best looks – the start of what looks set to be a juicy rivalry between the two shows, with #RHODurban trending at number two on Twitter in South Africa, just behind #RHOLagos, at the time of writing.

The Johannesburg premiere comes hot on the heels of the RHOLagos premiere held at the magnificent The Jewel Aedia in Lekki, Lagos, hosted by Toke Makinwa (talk show host on BBNaija: The Buzz and Talk with Toke Makinwa).

The Real Housewives of Durban released its penultimate episode today, ahead of the finale next Friday, 15 April 2022, with a reunion scheduled for early May 2022. In today’s episodes, the queens rule over Sun City – but where there is sun, there is bound to be shade!
