Bernelee Juniper (18) is a talented young lady who is progressively claiming her space in the modelling industry.
She is widely regarded as one of the most dazzling models in the making and is often cited as one of Limpopo’s ever-promising ‘beauties with brains’.
Bernelee is the daughter of multitalented Phalaphala FM presenter Wonder Juniper. Her friendliness goes way beyond the expression. “My sister inspired me to be a model; everything she touches turns to gold. Her way of dressing is so stylish, with colours collaborating and catching every eye,” she said.
So far, she has collected several pageant awards and prizes. She was crowned second princess at the Miss Bordeaux competition, then the Queen of Bordeaux and then Miss Cosmo City. Just last year, she was among the top five finalists for Miss Musina FM.
Bernelee sees herself joining Miss South Africa in the next four years. “I have the potential, and I am hungry for a big achievement,” she said. “I feel like I am not far from it.”
She said that if she were to get an opportunity to work with a well-known brand as a model, she would choose any brand that promoted stability, ubuntu, love, and a healthy lifestyle and living. “I've been a model for local brands, and I accumulated a lot of skills and knowledge from those brands,” she said. “It is surely high time that I join big, national brands. I call that growth.”
She thanked ZakesHildas brand, a modelling agency, for the opportunity that they had afforded her by supporting her to spread her wings as a model and fly higher. “The brand seems to be on the right track in helping upcoming models, musicians and other unnamed categories. But all in all, I appreciate the work they're doing for the youth,” she said. “May the Lord continue to open ways for them as they further their dreams.”

The revival of Tshivenda traditional music is not just the pipe dream of some idealists. Judging by the turnout during a meeting held in Thohoyandou this past weekend, this form of music is about to undergo a major revival.
Tshivenda traditional-music lovers are in for a treat with a collaboration between Tshivenda traditional music legend and veteran Solomon Mathase and popular poet and guitarist Dzomo la Venda. The two were spotted on Saturday, 20 April, at a function in Thohoyandou where they showcased their talents during a live performance.
During a Sunday sermon, Bishop Johannes Muofhe of the World Mission Church’s Fondwe branch prophesied that a musician, someone other than a member of the worship team, would emerge from the church.
With a successful roots-reggae album titled “Shandukani” to his name, Fhatuwani Richard Mashele is quickly becoming a household name in South African music. Better known as Jah Saint in music circles, Mashele believes that success does not come overnight and that one must work hard to earn it.
