Who can ever forget the beautiful and talented Anasia Govender? I chatted with her back in February this year and her videos are still being viewed on our website to this day.

Not only is she a comedienne, but is also an owner of a restaurant in North Coast here in Durban. In addition to her saucy meals and hilarious comedy, she wow'd everyone in 2017 when a video of her singing a classic from Ed Sheeran went viral and got everyone in a frenzy.

She used the beat to Ed's song 'Thinking Out Loud' and localised it to entice and inform people about her restaurant - and you will agree that she did a damn good job at it.

She then went on to sing a song about me and my show to the tune of Billy Ocean's 'Get outta my dreams, get into my car' and boy-oh-boy was I impressed! I mean, I have heard many things before but to hear a song dedicated to me - well that was something else.

It seems as though her talents have not gone unnoticed as just recently I heard that she featured on the popular South African show 'SA's Got Talent', and absolutely floored the judges with her performance. 

She also joined our very own East Coast Drive Team to chat about her experience after being in the competition.

One thing is for certain - there's only one way up for this Durbanite and that's straight to the top.
