She revealed that she found it hard to interpret this role as she’d never been in such a situation in real life. That said, she attributed her upbringing in the countryside to be the reason why she was able to play the role.
Other films she’s been cast in include 10 Days in Sun City, Lockdown, Looking For Love and Trippin with Skhumba.

The comedian is not married and doesn’t have a boyfriend. She revealed that her immediate family is not worried about her relationship status but some of the people in her extended family make slide comments about it.
At 44 years old, she is not willing to compromise herself to get a child or lower her standards for any man. She tells society to stop judging women her age as broken as she is perfectly fine with herself.
She further challenged men’s preference of choosing white girls over black ones and expecting sex after the first date. The latter is a deal breaker for her.
Celeste Ntuli has made a good amount of wealth from her comic and acting career. As of 2022, her net worth is estimated to be $5 million.
2019: Flying Solo and Comedy G Award at the Savanna Comics Choice Awards
2018: Received nominations at the eighth annual Comics’ Choice Awards
2014: Golden Horn Awards as the Best Supporting Actress at the SATMA
