In Jozi Dream we used method acting but I think the lady @ OR Tambo took the acting too far #DrugBust#JoziDreampic.twitter.com/1z1ySCrT1c

I don't think it's anyone from Generations, because they said "actress". Generation doesn't have any REAL actors or actresses #DrugBust

#GuessTheActress maybe its someone who's got beef with @Trevornoah and they're trying to steal the spotlight from him...

While some are turning to the news for the identity of the actress in question...
Waiting for the 12 o'clock news. They must drop a hint. Let me tune in to English news. Zulus don't snitch #GuessTheActress

We believe Jason Lee McCall has the answer.
This #guesstheactress is like the local version of Cluedo. IT was the actress in the airport with the drugs.

Our readers on Facebook have also joined in the fun:
Dolly Segodi: Don't worry guys Daily Sun will reveal the name later...."South African actress framed by tokoloshe found drugs in her bag"
Debbie Clifford: Obviously not a very good actress because she was caught and couldn't "act" herself out of the situation???!!!!
Viper'Idous Vince: Probably an actress that appeared in one local story past 20 years.
