"The people I admire, well, first it has to be my mom. By the way she’s doing everything and she’s been there for me and all, being a single parent raising a daughter, all alone, ja. And, basically, I think I love Oprah. She’s just everything. She’s just a phenomenal woman. She just wants to be there for everyone and do, do things right and she even tells you,to be comfortable in your body, basically, cause a girl’s not all make-up and all.

My race group, which is Xhosa, you have to carry yourself as a lady, in public, in, , in your house. You have to carry yourself as a lady, and respect other people . I don’t want to lie to you because the older generation I was told, that they were only allowed to put a cloth in front just to hide their private part and walk around with your breasts, but now, we can’t do it because of many things, like rape and crime and all. So, we’ve been modernised anyway, so you just have to wear cloths." - Babalwa
