Karen Mthethwa Becomes the Newest YFM Presenter
Karen Mthethwa Becomes the Newest YFM Presenter. This might as well be declared the Karen Mthethwa week. Just yesterday she was announced as one of the Purple Carpet hosts for the 2024 DStv Content Creator Awards. Now she has been announced as the newest member of the YFM family. What a week for her!
Karen’s radio journey started in Sandton at Boston Media House through the Bonang Matheba Bursary Fund. Five years later, together with other hopefuls she joined season III of the Switch Be The Next Presenter Search. After much deliberation, the station picked their top 5 contenders. Among those were Bokang Jiyane, Norman Nhlapo, Karen and Mukundi Mudau. Their next challenge was to co-host The Lunch League with Fresh by Caddy and Yvette Floss. As expected they nailed their tasks, but there could only be one winner, and that is Karen.
Karen wins a 3-month contract at Y and an Acer Iconia M10. The likes of Ntando Duma, Thato Mokoena, Ipeleng Selepe, The Lazy Makoti and many others, took to the comments section to congratulate Karen.
“Itβs about that time!
Congratulations @karenmthethwa, YOU ARE THE NEXT BIG THING ON Y!π₯π₯
Welcome to the Y family!ππΎ,” the radio station announced on their social media.
