Kenyan award-winning actress Catherine Kamau, popularly known as Kate Actress, has recently opened up on why she believes she wouldn’t be the best fit for Netflix’s reality show, Young, Famous & African.
In an interview with comedian Ofweneke, Kate Actress expressed that the show didn’t align with her personality adding that she thought she would be very bored in it.
“I can’t comment, but that’s not my vibe, that’s not me. I think I would be very bored in that show. I am an actress, my drama is not so much. My drama is corporate, haha."
The renowned thespian further declared that if the was a paycheck then she'd go for Akothee.
"But if there is a paycheck, I would go for Akothee. I would pay top dollar to watch her. I know her as Esther, I don’t even call her Akothee, and she would be perfect."
Kate also divulged details on her plans for the year 2024 stating that she'd go back to acting as lately she's been doing so much of skits adding her last big project was Disconnect 2.
"2024 is a very soft year for me. I am going back to acting. I have not stopped acting but I have been doing so much of skits. The last big project I did was Disconnect 2. I have learned that the more you do things, the more you learn. I am going back with a bang. I am on a certain series and I am looking forward to more opportunities this year,” she said.
When discussing international awards and achievements, Kate Actress emphasized her desire to make a meaningful impact in Africa.
“Winning an Oscar award is nice, but I think if I can make a difference here in Africa, it’s great. We don’t need to rely on their Grammys and their awards. I want to win an Oscar award from home. From a performance in Kenya,” she concluded.
Kate Actress is recognized as one of the most esteemed female thespians in Kenya.
