Honestly, the entertainment industry is not a very easy business. One day you’re in and the next day you’re out, and that’s the absolute truth.
A number of people have ‘called out’ Lerato Kganyago for ‘stealing’ jobs from other celebrities but honestly, we think that if you’re not the face they’re looking for, then accept it and move on.
Lerato took to Twitter to share some of the struggles she faced before she actually made it in the business. She shares that she went from a stable job to working for free at Soweto TV for almost 2 years.
So you see guys, everyone starts somewhere and it’s not always easy. She then adds that people should stop sitting on their butts and blaming governments for not providing them with jobs.
We agree with the beaut on a number of points, check out all her Tweets below:
Left A Stable Job…
I left a stable job with a stable income, and volunteered for 2 years at Soweto TV before I started getting paid. I was on a mission

Not The Government Excuse Again…
My point is we can’t always blame government, if we know they failing us, get up and TRY to do something…
