Diamond dreams go global, slay queens set to shine on British screens
London meets Jozi in a glam-fuelled documentary set to turn heads and rewrite the rules of reality TV.
Tebogo Ramokgadi, the executive producer behind South Africa's dazzling reality hit Diamond and Dolls, is officially going global and the UK is watching closely. British powerhouse Channel 4 News has tapped Tebogo for an upcoming documentary delving deep into the glittering (and sometimes controversial) world of 'slay queens' in South Africa.
With 1.49-million followers and more than 187-million YouTube views, Diamond and Dolls isn't just a show — it's a phenomenon. Now, it's poised to sparkle on an international stage as Channel 4 brings its stars — and their stories — to a new legion of global fans.
Why Tebogo? The British broadcaster was drawn to his unmatched insight into the South African reality TV scene — and, of course, his sharp understanding of the cultural powerhouse that is the slay queen. But this isn't just about Diamond and Dolls. Tebogo is curating a hand-picked line-up of both his show's cast and fresh faces to paint a portrait of life, hustle and fame in Mzansi.
