Timeline
Thulasizwe Siphiwe Dambuza (born 19 July 1997), known professionally as Lasizwe, is a South African media personality, TV host, YouTuber and social media maverick.
Rising to the stature of an A-Class Celebrity in his home country, he charmed audiences by humorously interpreting everyday human behavior.
Notably, he broke new ground as the first African to helm a reality TV show on MTV Africa "@Lasizwe: Fake It Till You Make It," garnering three successful seasons in less than two years.
This trailblazing journey earned him a spot on the esteemed Forbes Africa 30 under 30, solidifying his impact on the African entertainment landscape.
Lasizwe was born in Soweto, South Africa.
He attended Meredale Primary, a mixed-race primary school in Meredale, south of Johannesburg, and then attended Mondeor High School in Mondeor.
His mother, Lindiwe Dambuza (died in 2016) was a 40-year-old nurse at Lesedi Private Hospital, in a relationship with his father, Menzi Mcunu.
Along with his mother, his sister, Zonke Nkabinde, played a major role in his life, guiding and protecting him.
Lasizwe noticed there was something different about him: that he was uncomfortable around boys but could relate to any feminine topic.
At the age of 15 he recognized that he was gay.
Before starting his career, Lasizwe's mother took him for television auditions on a weekly basis across Gauteng from primary school.
At the age of 12, she sat him down and explained that the weekly auditions were no longer financially viable for their family.
He entered various competitions that gave away phones or audio-visual equipment.
It was when he won a phone from a radio competition, which he used to start creating his first batch of content.
Using his mother's laptop to record and learn basic video editing, he stored the videos on DVD discs and watched himself on the TV screen.
The urge to be on TV led him to post videos on Facebook, and ultimately create relatable South African content.
His first breakout video, Ek Sal Doom Jou, which was a skit based on news reports of a controversial pastor that sprayed the faces of his congregants with insect repellent in church.
The video went viral which led to different brands approaching him for commercials.
He hosted an outdoor event with Mabala Noise and presented an award at the 2017 South African Hip Hop Awards.
He was featured in a Nando's TV commercial and on Fanta's TV commercial as their new teen marketing director.
In late 2017 he became a radio presenter on TouchHD.
In 2018 he landed a role in hosting e.tv's youth show Craz-e World Live as well as VOOV TV's new show VOOVScoop.
In May 2019, he secured himself a deal to partner with GAME Stores.
The deal followed after he had posted a video on his social media platforms that depicted his famed character "Nomatriquency" undergoing an interview for a position at GAME.
Between 2020 and 2021, he managed to raise R2 million to impact students that were in need of registration fees.
This was in light of the protests that took place in South Africa, where students were protesting for 'Fees must fall' and impacted the lives of 313 students, through the "R10 goes a long way" campaign.
In June 2022, he was featured on the Forbes Africa '30 Under 30'.
Dambuza dedicated this achievement to his late parents.
"From making videos using a phone in the streets of Pimville Soweto to making it onto #Forbes30Under30. Anything is possible. I dedicate this award to all my parents. I wish I had the opportunity to see their reactions this... Your boy is on FORBES."
Lasizwe has made appearances on MTV Base Africa's You Got Got as one of the main presenters, and has presented on SABC 3's The Scoop Africa and SABC 1's The Real Goboza.
