For the past 17 years, SABC 3’s
Top Billing has been synonymous with the best of the good life, and our presenters are known for being the best of the best in lifestyle and entertainment TV.
With the bubbly Jeannie D and hunky Janez having embarked on their 26-week around the world trip with
Top Travel, and the stylish Nico Panagio kicking-off a 13-week stint in reality TV, Tswelopele Productions have been on the lookout for two vivacious and charming personalities to add to their award-winning team.
Says Tswelopele Chairperson, Basetsana Kumalo: “Due to the huge interest and constant demand – we hold presenter auditions on a regular basis, and we are always on the lookout for top talent that can add that ‘X’ factor to South Africa’s most loved lifestyle show.
It is with this in mind that we are proud to announce the newest arrival to the
Top Billing presenter family –
FHM’s Sexiest Woman in the World for 2009, Lyndall Jarvis.”
Capetonian Lyndall was an easy choice as
Top Billing’s newest presenter. Her striking appearance; down-to-earth nature; and effortless style earned her an amazing one-million votes in the Sexiest Woman contest.
Lyndall is no stranger to the camera either, having already featured in international commercials; music videos; and advertisements as part of her successful modeling career.
Her reaction - “I couldn't believe it when they phoned me to tell me the good news! I'm absolutely thrilled. It’s a once in a life time opportunity and I can't wait to get started!”
Says
Top Billing Executive Producer, Patience Stevens: “It’s not easy finding a presenter who has all the right attributes to appeal to our viewers, and who can match the very high standards set by our presenting team.
Bassie and I selected Lyndall from a host of applicants and we’re pleased that
SABC 3 GM Mathe Mosito-Okaba, and her team ratified our choice. We hope that Lyndall will be a great asset both to
Top Billing and to SABC 3.”
Commenting on Nico Panagio’s temporary departure, SABC 3’s Mathe Mosito-Okaba is encouraging and positive, “We are so pleased Nico has got this job due to the experience and exposure he has gained on SABC 3 and
Top Billing, and wish him much success with this new project.”
The good news to
Top Billing fans and aspirant presenters - Lyndall will hopefully be joined by an equally talented male presenter soon. Extensive auditions will be carried out countrywide to find the ideal candidate to compliment the
Top Billing team in Nico’s absence.
So if you are a young, attractive, intelligent and charming male with presenting skills, watch this space and you could be the newest
Top Billing presenter.
