If it wasn't for Zimbabwe, we wouldn't have these 10 famous faces in South Africa

Today marks the 37th anniversary of Zimbabwe's Independence, i.e.: the day the nation became free from colonial rule. Over the years, South Africa and Zimbabwe have shared quite the relationship and so have the people of both nations. As such, we have a few famous faces to thank Zimbabwe for:

1. Nadia Nakai
The rapper is of Zimbabwean descent, though she grew up in South Africa.

This one may come as a surprise but Dlamini was actually born in Zimbabwe and grew up between Zimbabwe and the UK. He has since made a home in South Africa and picked up some local languages (as so many Zimbabweans easily do).
