Denzel Washington or Morgan Freeman, who is the better actor for you and why?

They are both brilliant. One simply cannot be compared to the other.

Who, according to you, is South Africa's best-dressed celebrity?

I don’t have one individual that I can single out.

Not because there isn’t one but because I appreciate uniqueness and as such cannot compare.

You need to pick one childhood game to play to save your life (eg Squid Game). Which childhood game do you choose to play?

Oo I haven’t watched Squid Game as yet, so I have no idea. I’m currently busy with exams.
