South African Youtuber and beauty influencer Mihlali Ndamase recent debut on the movie screen was greeted with mixed reactions all over social media. Mihlali made her debut a few days ago on Rhythm City.

The award-winning content creator has bagged her first acting gig on eTV. Mihlali has since gone on to add ‘actress’ in her bio after breaking the news with her fans.

Twitter users took the opportunity to slide into the comment section and share their opinions.

@JuniourMpholoane believes Mihlali only got the gig because she is an influencer.
“Just because she’s an influencer and has a lot of followers she got an acting gig meanwhile there are other talented people out there who have degrees in drama but no opportunities because they’re nothing yoh South Africa.”

Other Twitter users also took to her comment section to congratulate the actress for her new win.
