storyline

She is an upcoming talent that is definitely going places. On screen she’s known for her flamboyant and outspoken character Beauty on 1Magic’s The River, but in reality Galaletsang Koffman is cool, calm and collected. Galaletsang was born in Pretoria (Legae hospital) but grew up in Makapanstad in the North West. She has six brothers. She’s the first child on mom’s side and the middle on dad’s side. She says she started her acting career when she decided to take acting seriously and decided to go study the craft. So essentially, her acting career began because of a decision she made. She studied drama at Wits and completed her honours degree in live performance at AFDA and got her acting break on The Road where she played a character called Lefentse. Galaletsang was nominated for best actress in her graduation film called ”Lucky”where she played the role of Mmabatho. The project later premiered at Ster-Kenikor The actress said she wanted aspiring actors to know that the industry is not as glamorous as people think. Galaletsang warned that fame comes and goes. When asked “What is the one thing you cannot go a day without?” Love. I love, love. Love comes with family, it comes in craft, and it comes with a sense of being. I think everybody in my life knows that I love, love. The one thing I cannot go without is my family. Speaking to my family, finding out if they’re okay. I constantly need to call my family and find out if they’re okay. When asked about her “first paying job”? I was a promo girl while I was studying. I did promotions for a living. I think my first actual job was promotions for JIK or something like that, I can’t remember. I remember we were in a taxi rank handing out brochures and telling people to buy the product. The women in her life inspire her style. Her grandmother, her aunt and her mother inspire her style.
