Nothing can stop you from achieving what you want: Letoya Makhene. Letoya is one of the most successful actresses and singers in the country and her works proves right. She has conquered in everything that she has participated in. She recently shared a sweet and encouraging message on her Instagram as she motivated her fans and followers. read the messages below:

I have lived. I have loved. I have conquered.
I have been broken and I have risen.
I look back on my life and I’m in awe of the many blessings that I have received. By age 9 I knew what it was to sacrifice play time because of work obligations – touring with my dad and sharing stages with giants! I was also doubling in 2 careers by that time as not only a singer but a presenter on K-T.V.

Letoya MkheneBy age 10, I was doing international tours with my dad – had the honour of jamming with Stevie Wonder in Ghana and by then, working as a presenter on The Rainbow Starship – which became what you now know as YO-T.V.

By 11 I was the anchor presenter at the Disney UNESCO Children’s Summit-representing SA.
I sang at the Commonwealth Games here in SA too!

I decided to take a break from everything by age 12 coz I just wanted to be a child.

By 13 I was starting to feel restless again – being a normal child at school just wasn’t enough for me anymore. Started appearing in a few commercials. But when I wasn’t appearing in them, I was singing in them.

At 14 my sisters and I were in a girl group called s’Kool Girlz.
I was in high school by then, studying Drama at NSA. By 16 I was back at doubling in careers as not only the lead singer of s’Kool Girlz, but as a
presenter on Channel O.

We recorded our last album when I was just 16-after mom passed away.

At 17 I was a contestant on Idols. By 18 I was headhunted as a presenter on the very same show! Crazy. I know.

Let’s not forget that they used my singing voice for the lead actress on Mr Bones when I was only 17!
At 19 I went into initiation school – stayed there for 8 months. Was a qualified Traditional Dr by age 20.

I recorded The One with D.J Cleo at 31. By age 33, I was not only still acting on Generations until 6 months of pregnancy but I was also in the studio in with my dad at the same time, recording, Qinisela. Thank you for the love and support you’ve shown me throughout my life. Thank you for the birthday wishes. Thank you for being on #TeamLetoya Love 💞
