In South Africa we are so blessed with talented people and the beautiful thing is that they share their talents with us. Sometimes the talent they have makes them famous and they end up making a living out of that which is a beautiful. After all doing something you love and getting paid at it is the best feeling in the world.

Their talents range from being in the entertainment industry and in sports. They come in and blow our minds with their talents and we fall in love with them.

Then they just vanish into thin air like they were never famous at all. No explanation no nothing just poof! Sometimes they do resurface after sometime when we have forgotten about them and they explain what happened to them and why they disappeared from the profession they were in. This is rare because sometimes they never resurface and we sadly hear about their passing as time goes on.
