Top 10 Hottest South African Men (2023)

Top 10 Hottest South African Men (2023)

One would’ve thought compiling this list of the Top 10 Hottest Men in South Africa would be a walk in the park but I thought wrong. This list made me realise that wow! kubi.

The Amapiano Boys really have it bad. As none of them were even up for consideration. Daliwonga was close to making it to the list but the red lip stuff situation he has going on ruined it for him. On the other hand Sir Trill is forcing his sexiness upon everyone, constantly licking his lips and no one is falling it for it, not even girlies from Mohlakeng want anything to do with him. Reece Madlisa looks like an old time thug that will steal your phone meanwhile Zuma looks tired from the cheap drugs he has been sniffing in Alexandra. The King of Amapiano; Kabza De Small is battling a phuza face meanwhile DJ Maphorisa is fat with hips close to touching his knees. Nothing is cute at all.

On the other hand some of your favourite actors made the majority of the list.

10. Siyabonga Thwala

Siyabonga Thwala (54) is a television and stage actor, television host, producer and businessman. He is known for portraying the role of Mpiyakhe Zungu on the now cancelled Mzansi Magic telenovela Isibaya. Siyabonga Thwala’s looks are giving hot daddy. His looks come close to Vusi Kunene who unfortunately did not make this list.

9. Makazole Mapimpi

With the South African team having won the World Cup Rugby 2023 it is fitting that Makazole Mapimpi (33) is on here. Makazole Mapimpi comes from Tsholomnqa; Eastern Cape. It also helps that he is not married and hopefully when he does he won’t marry white because everybody knows the story of black rugby players and white women. Look at Siya Kolisi with his ugly white wife Rachel Kolisi.

8. Phumudzo Manenhze

This list would’ve been incomplete without this Venda daddy; Phumudzo Manenzhe (39). He is a retired football player who started his career playing for Orlando Pirates. Since retiring he became a consultant for SABC sports and Radio 2000. Phumudzo Manenzhe is a divorcee and word has it in the streets that he is not packing. Imagine a 1.89m tall; Venda Man with all the right ingredients to pack and to find out he isn’t. What a let down. He is still hotter than Andile Ncube who aged rapidly from the stress of playing the foolish Sebabatso and Rosette Ncwana from also raising too many children with just an SABC sports salary and a stint at Young, African & Famous. How the hell did he book this job?

7. Pallance Dladla

SAFTA winning actor Pallance Dladla (31) has been hot since the beginning of time. His rise to fame came with being a runner-up on the second season of Class Act. Since then we have seen him from multiple roles including booking a job at Isibaya, Hard To Get and Tempy Pushas amongst other gigs. One thing that is likeable about this guy is that he is not only hot but he has the talent to back it up unlike Lunga Tshabalala who has the looks but the talent is non-existent. Lunga Tshabalala has been on many lists over the years regardless of how short he is. I think Thando Thabethe is glad he left his talentless ass.

6. Zamani Mbatha

Sni Mhlongo definitely won’t be too pleased to see Zamani Mbatha (25) on here. Not after he did her so dirty the past couple of months by cheating on her after they were dating for six years. As per Khanyi Mbau ‘Men will leave you in the desert with no water’. Zamani Mbatha’s star comes from playing the role of Zamani on the now cancelled Mzansi Magic’s telenovela Isithembiso. I hope they are still holding Nandi Mbatha accountable for the show being cancelled because sis couldn’t act for shit. We’ve seen Zamani Mbatha who comes from KwaMashu also act on the highly sexualised The Black Door and very recently on Isitha: The Enemy both shows on e-tv.

5. Tumi Seeco

Beautiful gowns, what the hell does he do? Did you know that Tumi Seeco (28) has a YouTube channel that nobody is watching. He says he is a wellness coach and a businessman who sells protein shakes. Asimazi bazalwane, we gonna move on.

4. Prince Kaybee

It is not shocking that Kabelo Motsamai who is well known as Prince Kaybee (34) made it to the list. Also if you know, you know but I bet Cyan Boujee really knows. Prince Kaybee is an award winning DJ, songwriter and producer. His debut into the music scene came with the song ‘Charlotte’ featuring the now cancelled Lady Zamar. Prince Kaybee who comes from the unknown town of Senekal; Free State continued to release hits and albums that got the South African stages shaking. He is a father of one with Zola Mhlongo. Zola couldn’t handle his hoe ways and dumped his ass like a hot potato.

3. Jesse Suntelle

What a gorgeous man, mara intombi yakhe u-Thuthu Maqhosha mumbi gore, Jesse Suntelle (31) rose to fame by winning the second season of the BET reality competition Top Actor Africa. We have since seen him on different roles from Savage Beauty, The Queen and Rhythm City. The multi-talented actor is also a television host and a rapper who goes by the name of J-Flo.

2. Thapelo Mokoena

There is no denying that Thapelo Mokoena (41) is one of the finest men in South Africa. You know the saying ‘aging well like fine wine’? this is it. Thapelo Mokoena who comes from Ladysmith is an actor, television producer and television host. He is best known for his role on the third season of Bulletproof; UK playing the role of William. He also hosted the first ever season of Fear Factor SA. He also got married in 2012 to his wife Lesego-Tshepang Mokoena. Congratulations to Thapelo Mokoena on his looks.

1. Rich Mnisi

Nothing more needs to be said because just look at him. Rich Mnisi (30) has been eating these boys up for years. With the looks and style to match, I mean. Rich Mnisi is a fashion designer who founded his own label Rich Mnisi. He graduated from LISOF School of Fashion in 2014 and was named Africa Fashion International Young Designer of The Year at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week the same year. We not jealous but I bet David Tlale and his friend Thula Sindi wish they would.
