Zozibini Tunzi to Present the Reboot of Top Billing
Set for refurbishment and the start of a new era, SABC3’s premium luxury lifestyle and entertainment show Top Billing is slated for a reboot on the 30th of April 2026 after a break of nearly seven years. The show revealed on its social media channels that 2019 Miss SA Zozibini Tunzi-Bolwana will be the presenter of the returning show.
“The wait is over… and the reveal is worth it. Introducing your newest #TopBilling presenter, Zozibini Tunzi. From global stages to your favourite lifestyle show, Zozi brings her grace, intelligence and unmistakable presence to the #TopBilling family. Get ready for fresh stories, inspiring moments, and a whole new energy,” said Top Billing on their official Instagram account.

Following her official induction, the 2019 Miss Universe will be joining an enviable pantheon of past presenters of the show, including the likes of Bonang Matheba, Fezile Mkhize, Maps Maponyane, Lorna Maseko, Simba Mhere, as well as former winners of Miss SA Basetsana Khumalo and Jo-Ann Strauss.
Founded by Basetsana Khumalo and Patience Stevens, the show came to an abrupt end in October 2019 after being on air for 27 years due to high production costs of the show. It was the longest-running entertainment and lifestyle TV show at the time of its cancellation.
Tunzi-Bolwana will also be flanked by the show’s new social media presenter Sinemivuyo Mpulu as well as another new and familiar face in the shape of 2023 Miss Universe SA Bryoni Govender.
