The award-winning Kenyan actress Catherine Kamau, also known as Kate Actress, recently shared her thoughts on why she wouldn't make the greatest cast member of Netflix's reality series Young, Famous & African.

Kate, the actress, stated in an interview with comedian Ofweneke that the show didn't fit her personality, adding that she anticipated being extremely bored there.

"I can't comment, but that's not my vibe, that's not me. I think I would be very bored in that show. I am an actress, my drama is not so much. My drama is corporate, haha."


The well-known actress went on to say that she would choose Akothee if there were a payoff.

"But if there is a paycheck, I would go for Akothee. I would pay top dollar to watch her. I know her as Esther, I don't even call her Akothee, and she would be perfect."

In addition, Kate shared information about her goals for 2024, saying that she would return to acting since she has been performing in many skits lately. Her most recent major undertaking was Disconnect 2.

"2024 is a very soft year for me. I am going back to acting. I have not stopped acting but I have been doing so much of skits. The last big project I did was Disconnect 2. I have learned that the more you do things, the more you learn. I am going back with a bang. I am on a certain series and I am looking forward to more opportunities this year," she said.


When discussing international awards and achievements, Kate Actress emphasized her desire to make a meaningful impact in Africa.

"Winning an Oscar award is nice, but I think if I can make a difference here in Africa, it's great. We don't need to rely on their Grammys and their awards. I want to win an Oscar award from home. From a performance in Kenya," she concluded.

Kate Actress is recognized as one of Kenya's most esteemed female thespians.
