'Prettiest girl in Guyana': CPT's Millie Terblanche does it again!
Cape Town-born model and reality TV star Camille 'Millie' Terblanche – who infamously called herself the 'prettiest girl in Guyana' – has gone viral for another social media faux pas. And this time, it took place at Cannes, the home of the French International Film Festival.
Last year, the Love Island SA contestant courted controversy on her TikTok account called 'Guyana Living.' In 2021, Millie made headlines after making a 'rape joke' on the dating show.
Last weekend, Millie Terblanche turned heads on the Cannes red carpet, her first time at the film festival.
In a video that has gone viral on social media, the reality TV star was asked how she landed an invite to the exclusive event.
She nonchalantly said, 'I don't do anything. Luckily, I'm from a rich family, so I get to be a stay-at-home daughter and just spend daddy's money!'
She continued: 'I'm just here for the vibe, to walk the red carpet and get some pics'.
When asked what her advice is for being successful and wealthy, Millie brazenly said: 'Basically, just have rich parents'.
Millie Terblanche's cringe comments didn't go unnoticed, particularly amongst South Africans.
@michaelgavran: 'World class doos'
@jettbradshaw_: 'She makes me sick'
@andreolivierdre: 'She's admitting she lives off daddy's money and isn't good at anything'.
@branden_husselman: 'This girl is a good example of you can have all the money in the world and still be hated by so many people because you're a terrible person'.
Last year, Millie Terblanche had South Africans hanging their heads in shame over her comments on her travel blog, Living in Guyana. In it, the Cape Town beauty documented her travels to the South American country.
In a video that blew up on Tiktok, she said: 'My favourite thing about Guyana is that I'm the prettiest girl here. I'm not even tooting my horn when I say that. It is a literal fact'.
The blonde went on to claim that the country has 'oil money' and encouraged others to make use of its natural resources. She also casually mentioned that the country was the location of the Jonestown massacre – a horror suicide pact conducted by cult leader Jim Jones – that took place in 1978.
However, whether intentionally or jokingly, Millie Terblanche's comments about her appearance in comparison to other Guyanese women enraged social media users.
Many accused her of being conceited and arrogant and displaying little knowledge about the country she had temporarily called home.

Rachel Kolisi vs Enhle Mbali: South Africans pick sides over 'divorce drama'
An Instagram post by Rachel Kolisi, the former wife of Springbok captain Siya Kolisi, has had many social media users comparing her to Enhle Mbali, who similarly went through a high-profile divorce from her ex, DJ Black Coffee. Both women have been outspoken about their marriage splits and navigating the way forward as single moms. However, they've received different reactions from the public. Rachel announced her split from Siya last October after eight years of marriage. Enhle and Black Coffee – real name Nkosinathi Maphumalo – called time on their nuptials in 2019 after tying the knot in a traditional wedding ceremony in 2011. Both women have two children with their exes. Like actress Enhle Mbali, Rachel Kolisi has been subjected to social media commentary about what led to their marriage split from their successful husbands. Rachel's recent Instagram post about being forced to drive an older car, a Toyota Yaris, had many South Africans wondering if it had anything to do with Siya Kolisi and their divorce settlement. But while many have sypathised with the former Springbok WAG, others have called out the double standards of treatment towards Enhle Mbali. Enhle – who publicly accused her ex of cheating, being physically, verbally, and financially abusive – was unfairly branded a 'liar', a 'gold-digger', and an 'opportunist'. The actress was also criticised for demanding a hefty sum in child support and spousal maintenance. Here's a look at the mixed views from social media users about Rachel Kolisi vs Enhle Mbali divorce saga… @Puse_Maseko: 'Rachel must get a C-Class, but Enhle must be left in a house with no electricity?' @trashdube: 'Rachel did a lot for black people, changed many lives. Your Enhle? It was all about Dubai and designer clothes'. @itsjustcebo: 'Rachel can be calm because she didnt go through what Enhle did. Black women are always treated the worst, then labelled as bitter'. @Lech67719389: 'Rachel Kolisi went the amicable solution route and kept it clean. Enhle Mbali made it a public spectacle and tried to milk sympathy.' @kokiiniezer1: 'Everyone feeling sorry for Rachel Kolisi but couldn't afford Enhle the same grace'. While their circumstances differ, both Enhle Mbali and Rachel Kolisi have spoken about their partners being away from home for extended periods due to their high-profile jobs. While Rachel has hinted that Siya may have cheated on her during their marriage, Enhle has publicly accused her ex of being unfaithful. Speaking to 702's Relebogile Mabotja recently, she said: 'I'm proud of how I handled my marriage. I never cheated, not once, until the day I decided to leave because I could no longer take the punishment to myself. 'It's multi-layered. But my non-negotiable was children in a marriage. Once there were two children by two different women, I said, 'You don't love me. In fact, you're going to kill me. 'I lost a lot of respect for my partner. I forgave him for the apologies I never got, I forgave myself.' During their marriage, Black Coffee reportedly fathered multiple children with different women. He has never confirmed or denied the news. Let us know by leaving a comment below, or send a WhatsApp to 060 011 021 1 .
