- 0:21Speaker 2: He was Jackson on.
- 0:22Speaker 3: Issy Vaya and he was the Leopard on Masked Singer.
- 0:26Speaker 4: Before we unmask the leopard, give us your final guesses.
- 0:31Speaker 2: Who is the leopard?
- 0:32Speaker 1: I'm starting with you, J-something. I think this is Jam.
- 0:35Speaker 1: I'm going to stick to my cats. Listen, this is
- 0:37Speaker 1: to me so much.
- 0:42Speaker 3: That was the.
- 0:42Speaker 5: Most fun I ever had with my clothes on, of course.
- 0:44Speaker 5: His film and television credits as an actor include being
- 0:47Speaker 5: the first South African actor to portray iconic leader Nelson
- 0:51Speaker 5: Mandela in the international film Mandela's Gun.
- 0:54Speaker 1: My name is Nelson Mandela. You grew up watching him.
- 0:58Speaker 1: Award-winning actor, Domitia Marshall!
- 1:08Speaker 3: And he was by far the most excited person to
- 1:11Speaker 3: be part of Muscle Man.
- 1:12Speaker 4: Oh my goodness, guys.
- 1:14Speaker 1: You know what? I was ready to give both arms
- 1:16Speaker 1: and legs to be on that show. Anything, you know?
- 1:19Speaker 2: Oh my word. And did Leopard not have a whale
- 1:23Speaker 2: of a time?
- 1:24Speaker 1: I had a blast. It was a dream come true.
- 1:27Speaker 5: So for many years, I've been saying, especially to my wife,
- 1:31Speaker 5: that you know what? If things had worked out differently,
- 1:34Speaker 5: I could have been a recording artist.
- 1:36Speaker 1: Okay.
- 1:37Speaker 5: I remember in Varsity, Somla and I tried to start
- 1:40Speaker 5: a boy band in the mid-90s.
- 1:42Speaker 2: Oh my gosh.
- 1:43Speaker 1: Hard jobs. I don't know how it.
- 1:45Speaker 5: Didn't work out because I think we would have taken over.
- 1:47Speaker 2: You guys would have done something. You have the moves.
- 1:49Speaker 3: You've got the height.
- 1:50Speaker 2: You've got the looks. I think they should have led
- 1:51Speaker 2: with the visual and then the music later.
- 1:54Speaker 5: And until the beginning, it was a time when he
- 1:56Speaker 5: still had the long dreads and he was a biker
- 1:58Speaker 5: boy and everything. I was just that guy, you know,
- 2:00Speaker 5: on the side. I was like, we're going to do this.
- 2:02Speaker 2: You were all out toppling Crash. Let's just start there.
- 2:05Speaker 2: People think we watch toppling for the houses.
- 2:07Speaker 3: No, sir. No, sir.
- 2:09Speaker 2: We were watching.
- 2:11Speaker 3: And another thing, I kept on thinking, every time you
- 2:13Speaker 3: went on stage, I was like, you know, Domingo.
- 2:15Speaker 2: Could do his own voiceover for the leopard. Because you
- 2:18Speaker 2: are like one.
- 2:19Speaker 3: Of the country's leading voiceover artists.
- 2:21Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah. I actually thought about it. Like, I
- 2:23Speaker 1: could have just done my own voiceover for that. And
- 2:25Speaker 1: I could have done it differently.
- 2:26Speaker 4: Try us.
- 2:27Speaker 2: Show us what you would have done.
- 2:28Speaker 1: Oh, okay.
- 2:30Speaker 5: And now, bringing on to the stage, the one and
- 2:34Speaker 5: only leopard from Pitori.
- 2:38Speaker 2: I'm not buying it.
- 2:39Speaker 1: You're not buying it? I mean, I'm trying to make
- 2:41Speaker 1: it different. If I'd gone for the usual.
- 2:42Speaker 2: Go with your... The usual. When I hear you on
- 2:44Speaker 2: the radio, you're usually selling Standard Bank or something.
- 2:46Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm usually selling some financial product.
- 2:49Speaker 3: Okay, so sell it like a... Sell Leopard like Leopard
- 2:51Speaker 3: is a bank.
- 2:53Speaker 5: If you ever wanted to be serenaded by a real leopard,
- 2:57Speaker 5: eaten alive, but in a nice way, well... Watch Masked

- 3:09Speaker 2: we go.
- 3:09Speaker 1: That's how you do it.
- 3:11Speaker 4: That's how you do it.
- 3:11Speaker 2: Oh, my word.
- 3:12Speaker 3: Please, can you record that and play it over and over?
- 3:14Speaker 2: That's a free voiceover for us. That's free.
- 3:16Speaker 4: Now we're going to use that everywhere.
- 3:18Speaker 1: Yeah, until his agent gets in touch. We're with the
- 3:22Speaker 1: same agent, by the way. All of us, all three
- 3:25Speaker 1: of us.
- 3:25Speaker 2: All three of us.
- 3:26Speaker 4: Can I just say, because we were chatting to your
- 3:28Speaker 4: agent before we got you onto the master, right? And
- 3:31Speaker 4: there's obviously negotiations that happen. And I remember Owen saying...
- 3:35Speaker 4: Mishu desperately wants to do this because you had another
- 3:37Speaker 4: project lined up and it was back and forth around
- 3:40Speaker 4: it and every time I kept saying to him look
- 3:43Speaker 4: I mean if it's a bigger project and if it's
- 3:44Speaker 4: going to be global success and he was like no
- 3:47Speaker 4: no no my man we are trying to move that
- 3:49Speaker 4: thing out of the.
- 3:51Speaker 5: Way I was like guys you guys will have to
- 3:54Speaker 5: just figure it out because I'm doing Masked Singer and
- 3:56Speaker 5: how that's going to work is not my problem you
- 3:58Speaker 5: see I made Owen, I made sure that he understood
- 4:01Speaker 5: that this deal had to be made.
- 4:03Speaker 1: Have you phoned Frankie? Have you made sure? Does anyone
- 4:06Speaker 1: know I'm coming? Okay. And you know what?
- 4:10Speaker 3: You and I run into each other quite a bit.
- 4:12Speaker 3: And it does not matter like where.
- 4:15Speaker 2: We are, what we're doing.
- 4:16Speaker 3: We'll always end up speaking about our children, right? You
- 4:19Speaker 3: and I have got like a very big, you know,
- 4:20Speaker 3: you and me are parents first and everything afterwards. So
- 4:23Speaker 3: when you took, you know, say, I'm going to do
- 4:26Speaker 3: my thing, I knew you were doing it for your
- 4:27Speaker 3: little girl.
- 4:28Speaker 1: What did she think of that?
- 4:30Speaker 5: She was actually impressed for once these days. Because, you know,
- 4:34Speaker 5: they're getting to that age where I'm no longer …
- 4:37Speaker 5: The guy. Yeah, I'm not cool anymore. But she was
- 4:39Speaker 5: actually quite impressed with my songs. Here and there, she
- 4:43Speaker 5: tried to throw some shade, but I was.
- 4:45Speaker 1: Like, girl, please.
- 4:46Speaker 3: And you say she clocked you as you came out
- 4:48Speaker 3: as leopard.
- 4:49Speaker 5: As I was walking out, she's like, ah, no, those
- 4:51Speaker 5: Kiss My Dollars belong to my father.
- 4:54Speaker 1: He gave me the same thing.
- 4:55Speaker 3: I know. Another thing that you and I have in common,
- 4:59Speaker 3: our kismetola.
- 5:00Speaker 1: We wear it with pride.
- 5:02Speaker 2: You got to. Dude, you have to.
- 5:04Speaker 3: Do you know that I've even figured out a way
- 5:06Speaker 3: to stand?
- 5:07Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
- 5:08Speaker 3: And I could see Leopard trying to stand.
- 5:10Speaker 2: And I'm like, ah, you're doing.
- 5:11Speaker 5: It wrong, buddy.
- 5:12Speaker 2: You're doing it wrong.
- 5:13Speaker 5: I was trying to divert so that they don't see
- 5:15Speaker 5: my kismetola.
- 5:16Speaker 3: As me, you know?
- 5:17Speaker 2: No, just like you're doing it wrong. And Leopard's standing
- 5:19Speaker 2: like a giraffe. And he's doing giraffe legs.
- 5:21Speaker 1: That's exactly what it looks like.
- 5:25Speaker 4: Again in.
- 5:30Speaker 3: English!
- 5:30Speaker 2: I told you! If I'm being honest.
- 5:48Speaker 1: And I'm being honest.
- 5:50Speaker 5: I can't think when you're.
- 5:51Speaker 3: Looking like that.
- 5:52Speaker 1: I can't breathe when you're moving like that.
- 5:54Speaker 5: Tell me when you're going to do.
- 5:55Speaker 3: It like that.
- 5:57Speaker 1: Hey, I'm so weak and I never like that. Lights
- 6:01Speaker 1: feed and I think I might crash. One trip down
- 6:04Speaker 1: and I'll never go back. But everything's going to be
- 6:07Speaker 1: all right.
- 6:09Speaker 2: I think I just met my wife.
- 6:17Speaker 3: That was Leper this past weekend. One thing that you
- 6:19Speaker 3: did to me, Shawwal, when you were in Masked Singer
- 6:21Speaker 3: Season 3 is that you picked good songs, eh?
- 6:25Speaker 1: Wow. Thanks, Aneliaka. No, thanks for your assistance on that one.
- 6:31Speaker 1: And Frankie.
- 6:32Speaker 2: This is what.
- 6:33Speaker 4: Pat yourself on the back. We've got to get to
- 6:35Speaker 4: Tempe Kili doing some news headlines quickly. But when we
- 6:37Speaker 4: come back, we've got to play you because, you know,
- 6:39Speaker 4: he did the first song of Season 3, right?
- 6:43Speaker 2: Alex Warren.
- 6:44Speaker 4: Alex Warren. It is one of my favorite performances on
- 6:47Speaker 4: The Masked Singer Season 3. We're going to have to
- 6:50Speaker 4: play you what that sounded like.
- 6:50Speaker 1: Do you have it? I've got it.
- 6:52Speaker 2: Please. It's incredible. Oh, my word. Stand by for that.
- 6:55Speaker 4: It was insane.
- 6:57Speaker 2: It's insane. And then there was fireworks and he was dramatic.
- 7:00Speaker 1: Oh, my.
- 7:01Speaker 2: Thank you for taking me back there.
- 7:02Speaker 1: He is the season opener. Oh, my word.
- 7:05Speaker 2: On the way.
- 7:06Speaker 1: The angels up in the clouds. A jealous number found.
- 7:11Speaker 2: Something so out of the ordinary.
- 7:14Speaker 1: You got me kissing.
- 7:16Speaker 2: The ground of your sanctuary.
- 7:19Speaker 1: Shadow me with your touch.
- 7:21Speaker 5: Oh, Lord, return me to dust.
- 7:23Speaker 1: The angels up in the clouds are jealous knowing.
- 7:28Speaker 2: We found something so heavenly.
- 7:31Speaker 3: Higher than ecstasy.
- 7:33Speaker 1: Whenever you're next to me, oh, my, my. What was
- 7:37Speaker 1: in black and white until I.
- 7:39Speaker 3: Saw your light? Can I tell you, when the pyro
- 7:49Speaker 3: was released and there was flames, I stood up.
- 7:51Speaker 2: And I said, wait guys, this is not the finale.
- 7:54Speaker 1: Why? Why do we have fireworks?
- 7:58Speaker 5: I was like, what are we going to do for
- 7:59Speaker 5: the finale if this is how we started the first
- 8:01Speaker 5: song of the show?
- 8:02Speaker 1: So good, dude.
- 8:04Speaker 3: Jimmy Shaw, what still excites you as an artist, as
- 8:06Speaker 3: an actor, as a voiceover artist, as a father, as
- 8:09Speaker 3: a husband, as a person?
- 8:11Speaker 2: What still excites you?
- 8:12Speaker 5: I'm still excited about telling stories, about telling beautiful stories.
- 8:15Speaker 5: I'm still excited about putting a positive spin on what
- 8:22Speaker 5: we have. And when I say spin, I don't mean
- 8:23Speaker 5: like we have to find it. I think there's amazing
- 8:26Speaker 5: things that are happening in our country, but just putting
- 8:28Speaker 5: it out there as much as possible in the media zeitgeist.
- 8:32Speaker 5: So that still excites me about just... doing, being part
- 8:36Speaker 5: of this.
- 8:36Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 8:36Speaker 3: Because a lot of the people who do more singer,
- 8:39Speaker 3: they say, you guys, you reminded me of something. You
- 8:43Speaker 3: woke up something in me as well.
- 8:45Speaker 2: Did that do anything for you?
- 8:46Speaker 5: For me, it was the dream of, you know, before
- 8:50Speaker 5: I thought I wanted to be an actor, I wanted
- 8:52Speaker 5: to be a singer first. And I remember being nine
- 8:54Speaker 5: years old and starting this boy band at school with
- 8:57Speaker 5: my four friends, Grant, Taylor, and three other guys. I
- 9:01Speaker 5: can't remember them because only Grant and I were really
- 9:03Speaker 5: serious about this.
- 9:06Speaker 1: And even then it didn't work out. And I was like,
- 9:08Speaker 1: one day.
- 9:09Speaker 3: It's going to happen.
- 9:10Speaker 1: And it did.
- 9:10Speaker 2: It did.
- 9:12Speaker 1: Detectives.
- 9:14Speaker 2: Who is the leopard?
- 9:15Speaker 1: I'm starting with you, J-something. I think this is Java.
- 9:19Speaker 1: Detective Somji.
- 9:21Speaker 5: I'm going to go with Dumiso Masha. Stella.
- 9:24Speaker 2: This is Dumiso Masha.
- 9:27Speaker 1: Jason. DJ Sebi. DJ Sebi. Superfan audience, say it with me.
- 9:34Speaker 1: Take it off.
- 9:36Speaker 2: Take it off.
- 9:37Speaker 5: It's award-winning actor, Dumisha Marshall.
- 9:45Speaker 1: And that, folks, was how I came out to the world.
- 9:49Speaker 3: But as somebody who has like a deep dream of.
- 9:52Speaker 2: Being a musician, to be compared to Java.
- 9:56Speaker 5: I know, I know, because I'm a huge, by J-something,
- 10:01Speaker 5: who I'm a huge fan of. And I kept thinking,
- 10:03Speaker 5: why didn't I do that J-something track that I love
- 10:06Speaker 5: so much?
- 10:06Speaker 1: You know, my man. And I was like, how do
- 10:08Speaker 1: you do that song in front of J, for J?
- 10:10Speaker 5: But for J-something to think I was Java all along,
- 10:13Speaker 5: I was like, you know what?
- 10:14Speaker 1: I'm done.
- 10:15Speaker 5: Like, Today, even if it's my funeral today, I'm happy.
- 10:19Speaker 4: I had a whole bunch of people with me posted. Obviously, Mosinger, Zeta,
- 10:22Speaker 4: if you want to follow what's happening online. And when
- 10:24Speaker 4: the review was posted on Saturday, I reshared it. And
- 10:28Speaker 4: a whole bunch of people DMed me saying, we were
- 10:29Speaker 4: convinced it's Jav.
- 10:30Speaker 2: Yes.
- 10:31Speaker 1: I was like, no.
- 10:31Speaker 2: This is the thing.
- 10:32Speaker 3: What?
- 10:32Speaker 2: Look at you.
- 10:33Speaker 5: No, but to be spoken about in the same sentence
- 10:36Speaker 5: as Java, who am I? I mean, I've been a
- 10:38Speaker 5: fan of his from his first album. And then he
- 10:40Speaker 5: did Black Panther and every album. He's such an amazing
- 10:45Speaker 5: musician and singer. I was like, thank you. Thank you
- 10:48Speaker 5: so much. I'm just grateful.
- 10:50Speaker 3: No, the thank yous come from us to you. Thank
- 10:52Speaker 3: you for bringing Leopard alive on stage. Thank you for
- 10:54Speaker 3: being such a sport. And also, on a personal note,
- 10:58Speaker 3: thank you for being excited about life. It's so easy
- 11:00Speaker 3: to get jaded. It's so easy to always be complaining.
- 11:04Speaker 3: Like every time I run into you, you and I
- 11:05Speaker 3: are not complaining. We're just planning the next thing that's
- 11:07Speaker 3: going to excite us and the next thing that's going to...
- 11:10Speaker 3: you know, send well-balanced kids into the world.
- 11:13Speaker 1: Thank you so much.
- 11:14Speaker 2: Thank you.

- 11:37Speaker 3: had to push everything aside.
