Fish, Hastie and Van Coke ready to roast AKA

Former football star Mark ‘Fiiiish’ Fish, Nina Hastie with her outspoken comedic talent, and rock star Francois van Coke will take on the notorious rapster in an epic shootout in the highly anticipated Comedy Central Roast of AKA, in partnership with Showmax at The Teatro at Montecasino on February 21.

“The Big Fish” knows better than anyone how to defend without taking the bait and can attack with equal skill. He quickly went from sardine to barracuda in the South African and international football scene, playing for several European clubs.

Father of four and local heartthrob, women just love his heavenly ball play. AKA and the panel had best not rub “Fiiiish” up the wrong way!

Fish said: “This may be the only time I can roast AKA since he is king of roasting people on Twitter.”

Teaming up with Fish, the courageous Hastie has no filter when it comes to speaking her fiery mind. This pint-size pack of dynamite is sure to show her grit and her knack for attack.

“I would roast him on skipping leg day the most. His whole leg is ankle. Maybe that’s why he got a shoe sponsorship … Because having a whole leg as an ankle makes a shoe look very special,” she said.

In the perfect yin and yang/rock versus rap face-off, legendary bad boy Francois van Coke (born Francois Badenhorst) will take centre stage to try and face off AKA. The local rock idol will have no skaam when he gets in the ring with the boss of rap. Will he be the bloke to get AKA to choke?

Filming of the Comedy Central Roast of AKA in partnership with Showmax is open to the public. Visit www.comedycentralafrica.com.
