Actress Sonia Mbele is ready to shake things up on Scandal! with her brand-new character, Mamsie. The talented actress recently gave fans a glimpse behind the scenes and shared more details about the dramatic role she is playing on the popular soapie.
Mamsie is described as a woman full of mystery, charm and drama. With her faded luxury style and strong 90s glamour, she knows how to capture attention wherever she goes. While she may appear stylish and poetic, there is also a manipulative side to her character that makes her even more interesting.
Taking to Instagram, Sonia explained who Mamsie really is and what viewers can expect from her story.
“If you haven’t met Mamsie here she is. She’s an old school mashayashaya, she hasn’t learned that the game of scam has since gone to sophistication school of thought and processing. She left SA in the 90’s with a singing/dancing group called “Mayibuye” to perform all over Europe. She got there, found what she thought was love and left the group…even though the group has since come back since then Mamsie thought to push her hustle even further. Marries an Italian who’s a bigger scammer, things don’t work out, now she has no choice but to come back home, tired and washed out now it’s time to find her son Absolome AKA Botsotso…let the madness begin.”
The character’s complicated history and dramatic return to South Africa are expected to bring plenty of twists and chaos to the storyline. Scandal! airs weekdays at 7:30 PM on e.tv.
