left BAT and am doing well with my entertainment career, working with the likes of Liquideep and managing a few DJ’s. I am also an ambassador for DC Shoes. Finally, tell us about your chosen girl Shoneez, how are things going with her? After the show, I did not see her for four months due to contractual obligations relating to the show. That was difficult. I feel like she has been the same person during and after the show. I think highly of her and believe the feeling is mutual. I have helped her be a more confident person because I want her to know that first and foremost, she won and doesn’t have to compete with
anyone anymore. We are building our friendship slowly and I think it is going well although it is too early to talk about anything serious. And this is what Shoneez thinks of the experience: I did not come onto the show looking for a relationship. I was really bored with my job and wanted to do something exciting. Being a part time model, I thought it would also help my career in entertainment. And it was worth the risk as I am now a well known face. I frequently get recognised in malls and I am scheduled to feature in music videos and a couple of TV Ads. I was attracted to Paul and his bad boy image but I don’t really think he is like
that in real life because at the end of the day it was a show. He is a great guy and I think in the future we can be really good friends and business partners. I had a long relationship with Maurice Paige (Calvin on Isidingo) and we were going through a rough patch when I entered the show. Since then he has come back into my life and it is quite possible that we will resume dating. Carol Malonza
