On the e.tv serial drama Scandal!, Xolani Ncobeni and Khombi Phetla were just added to mix things up. Xolani Ncobeni portrays the role of Cee-uncle, Jay’s a greedy, selfish, and crooked guy. Xolani remarked that his character opens Mzansi’s eyes since every family has a “Dan.”
This 46-year-old actor hails from Clermont, which is west of Durban. In 2015, he appeared in Uzalo season one as Officer Mdunge. In addition, Xolani dances for well-known Mzansi performers including the late Lebo Mathosa, Ihhashi Elimhlophe, and Mfiliseni Magubane. In 1997, he embarked on his acting career by touring New York and Canada in a play by the late dramatist Welcome Msomi.
In 1998, he began dancing with the renowned maskandi singer Mfiliseni. In 1999, he began dancing with Ihhashi Elimhlophe, travelling to many nations, including Germany and Portugal.
In 2004, he began dancing for the late Lebo Mathosa, and thereafter pursued a career as a songwriter. “I asked her to write some songs for her when I was dancing for Lebo, and she agreed.” I have wrote several other songs, including Awudede and Ngi Fun’ukugana. Before returning to the theatre, he added, “I also worked with Mshoza and wrote a few songs for her and worked with Thembi Seete.”
The actor Masoja Msiza, a friend of his who performed in several M-Net films in 2020, introduced him to television, he claimed. He said, “I worked with Big Zulu from 2017 until 2019, when I joined the e.tv series, Isipho. I was performing with him during his performances.”
