Boity Thulo looked radiant on Thursday night as she was announced as the social media expert and new presenter for the Nedbank Ke Yona Team Search show.

Boity was officially announced as the host on the new season of football reality show Nedbank Ke Yona Team Search on Thursday night.

• 'Who would fake a drink?' - DJ Sbu on pirates targeting MoFayaDJ Sbu has been getting word from "the ground" that there’s a fake MoFaya selling on the streets and although he is yet to fully investigate, he said he can't believe people would go to such lengths. 

The presenter, who was recently announced as a presenter for a lifestyle-car show Change Down, seems to be putting her fingers in all the pies as she now tackles presenting a talent scout sport show.

"It's an incredible opportunity. We've already started shooting and it has been eye opening. I think people don't realise that these kind of programs are life changing and I watch these young people's lives change and that is amazing," she said.

The versatile presenter told TshisaLIVE at the event in Alex Mall that she is not willing to turn down an opportunity to learn. She added that having presented a music show, a car show and now a sport show, she "taking whatever I can and just growing from it".

Boity added that she would approach the challenge as a lifestyle presenter more that a sports expert, to highlight the life altering experiences she witnesses.

She was also announced as the social media expert for the Nedbank Ke Yona Ring of Steel Launch and is expected to assist the new talent with how to handle social media and how to make money from it.

"I am assuming that I was chosen because of my following and my behaviour on social media. I think they felt like I would be the right person to guide these young men in terms of how to make social media work for you and your career," she said.

Boity is replacing Minnie Dlamini, who hosted the fourth season of the football reality show.
