'My motto is simple, 'For the people by the people', 'Motho ke motho ka batho' (I am because you are). I do everything for my people, never for myself or to prove a point,' She said.
Madesh has been chosen to represent South Africa, amongst other celebrities from different countries of the continent, in Lesotho on May 2, at a four day event.
'The event is a four day event with lots of activities aiming at bringing Lesotho to the world. There will also be other creatives from different countries like Botswana etc. I have also also signed with a cartoon production coming out very soon,' she said.
On top of this, the hardworking Madesh, will be dropping a single this month, May, in celebration of the years that she has been in the entertainment industry. The single is called Wakho featuring Madesh X V king , Vista , Amagintsa ft Amani Za & Slow nation.

King to mark official birthday with Trooping the Colour parade

Military pomp and pageantry will be on display in central London to mark the milestone but the event will also remember those killed in the Air India plane crash. The King has requested a minute's silence be observed in tribute to the 241 passengers and crew killed, and others affected, when a Boeing 787 Dreamliner bound for Gatwick Airport came down on Thursday in the Indian city of Ahmedabad. Black armbands will also be worn by the head of state and senior royals riding in the ceremony, also known as the King's Birthday Parade, staged in Horse Guards Parade in Whitehall. On horseback and wearing the armbands will be the Royal Colonels – Prince of Wales, Colonel of the Welsh Guards, the Princess Royal, Colonel Blues and Royals, and the Duke of Edinburgh, Colonel Scots Guards. The Queen, the Princess of Wales and the Duchess of Edinburgh are expected to be among the royal party watching the event and royal fans will hope Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis will join them as they did last year. Members of the royal family not taking part in the parade and who normally watch events from the Duke of Wellington's former office will not wear black armbands. A Buckingham Palace spokesperson said the King requested amendments to the Trooping the Colour programme 'as a mark of respect for the lives lost, the families in mourning and all the communities affected by this awful tragedy'. In 2017, Trooping was held a few days after the Grenfell Tower blaze and the loss of life was marked by a minute's silence, a decision taken by Queen Elizabeth II. The King issued a written message soon after the Air India plane crash saying he was 'desperately shocked by the terrible events' and expressing his 'deepest possible sympathy'. He was kept updated about the developing situation on Thursday and it later emerged there was a sole survivor, UK national Vishwash Kumar Ramesh. Trooping the Colour will see more than 1,000 servicemen taking part in the military display who when not performing ceremonial duties are fighting soldiers. The colour – regimental flag – being trooped this year is the King's Colour of Number 7 Company, Coldstream Guards, a prestigious regiment known as the sovereign's bodyguard which is celebrating its 375th anniversary this year. The day will end with the royal family gathering on Buckingham Palace's balcony for the traditional RAF flypast.

Sam Burns fires 65 to grab US Open lead as big names stumble

Sam Burns of the US on the green of the ninth hole during the second round of the US Open. EPA-EFE OAKMONT – Sam Burns matched the third-best US Open round ever fired at Oakmont, shooting a five-under 65 to seize a one-stroke lead after the second round on June 13 as big names struggled. The 28-year-old American made six birdies against a lone bogey to stand on three-under 137 after 36 holes on the punishing layout. 'It felt like I played really well. Today was really nice,' he said. 'But there's obviously a lot of golf left on a very tough course.' The only two US Open rounds at Oakmont lower than Burns' 65 were Johnny Miller's final-round 63 to win in 1973 and a 64 by Loren Roberts in the 1994 third round. American J.J. Spaun made bogeys on three of the last four holes to shoot 72 and stand second on 138 with Norway's Viktor Hovland third on 139 after a 68 – the top trio being the only players under par after 36 holes. 'I was definitely anxious to get back out here and see how the game would pan out, and it ended up being a pretty good day,' Spaun said. 'It was more of a true US Open round, a lot of back and forth, a lot of grinding, bogeys. It was still an overall good day. I'm still right there.' World No. 14 Hovland marveled at 22nd-ranked Burns and his stunning round. 'Super impressive,' Hovland called it. 'It just feels like you have to play absolutely perfect and have some good breaks going your way, as well, but it's definitely doable.' Heavy rains drenched Oakmont, halting play for the day at 8.15pm. World No. 2 Rory McIlroy struggled to make the cut, with double bogeys at the first and third holes, but sank a five-foot birdie putt at the 18th to shoot 72 and stand on 146, securing a spot inside the low 60 and ties to make the weekend. Bryson DeChambeau fired a 77 to stand on 150 and miss the cut, the first defending champion to miss the US Open cut since Gary Woodland in 2020. Also missing the cut was six-time US Open runner-up Phil Mickelson. Top-ranked Scottie Scheffler and Spain's Jon Rahm were seven adrift on 144. Scheffler fired a 71 with five bogeys and four birdies, while Rahm carded a frustrating 75. With few exceptions, Oakmont was delivering blows to golf's top talent. 'Everyone seems like they're exhausted when they come in off the course just because it's a punch in the face,' American Denny McCarthy said. 'It just takes a lot out of you.' Burns, who shared ninth at last year's US Open for his best Major finish, last won at the 2023 WGC Match Play, but he fired a Sunday 62 before losing a Canadian Open play-off last week. 'I felt like my game was in good form coming in here,' he added. Australian Adam Scott and American Ben Griffin shared fourth on 140. France's Victor Perez aced the par-three sixth hole from 192 yards, hitting the 54th hole-in-one in US Open history but only the second ace at a US Open at Oakmont. He shot 70 to stand sixth on 141.
