I know Vixen. First time I and my sibs watched her present on Silverbird TV, my bro was like "who is this lady with the wide mouth??"

Indeed. Her lips are one gorodo of beans...

Anyhu, she is a very confident and smooth presenter.

Yvonne Ekwerre strikes me as an "abebelube" person. She reminds me of the character "Thembeka Shenzi" on the etv soap Scandal!-same height, skin colour and personality.
