In 2005 my life changed when I was called into the Channel O offices to have a meeting with my boss Yolisa Phahle. My first reaction was "what did I do wrong," only to get there and be offered the job of a lifetime. The job was to go to the United States of America, live in the best hotels, be driven around in Escalades to mingle with and interview 'A' list celebrities.


You won't believe my first reaction was "no, I cant do this" because the job was beyond me and I was afraid fail. I Thank Yolisa who said it was not up for discussion and was my job! So, in two weeks I had my visa and was on my way to Los Angeles to live my dream.


In LA, I met up with my producers Colin Gayle and Thomas Gibson from Bounce Back Media and O Access began. I went straight to work interviewing the likes of Fantasia and Akon, as my first guests. I was a bit nervous, as it was my first time in America and there I was bumping into Lindsay Lohan and Paris Hilton on the street and in restaurants. I interviewed the world's biggest hip hop and RNB artists such as John Legend and Chris Brown to name a few.
To cut the story short, the show was an instant hit all over the African Continent and I was blessed enough to host until season four, the rest they say, is history...
