Now the big task has begun for new contestants and celebs eyeing to clinch a cool R1million at stake, in 2018 following the competition kick off at the lavish Maldives Island.
Katlego Maboe is the host for this eighth season, and the seven celebrities are Khanya Mkangisa, Brendan Peyper, Sbahle Mpisane, Nay Maps, Tumi Voster, Melinda Bam, and Karabo Mogane.
In every game there’s hypocrisy, sell out, cowards and cold hearted characters, so this will be no different, ask Anga and his partner Bongs what went down last year?
Contestants include Lihle Ngubo, Lisanne Lazarus, Mpande Buthelezi, Nondu Mabizela, Rudi Witkowsky, Kelly Gunnell and Mark-Anthony Bingham.
Miantha Padayachee, Brand Group Manager for Tropika, was quoted as saying she looks forward to seeing what these group of celebrities will bring to #TIOT8.
“As with all past seasons of Tropika Island of Treasure, the mix of celebs has been incredibly diverse with each person bringing something unique and entertaining to the table – and this season is no different. I’m excited to see how their different personalities and strengths play out on the Island. This season we have a few surprises in store – for both the celebs and the consumers who join them in the Maldives.”
Last week the celeb and contestants met in Sun City for a ’farewell party’ before descending to the ‘unknown planet on Earth…’ were trust will be broken to the shred.
The episode of Tropika Island of Treasure Maldives airs on SABC3 Mondays at 19:30.
