Thuso Mbedu to model in Rihanna’s Savage x Fenty lingerie show

Actress Thuso Mbedu has long cemented her place as a global star – and America knows it.

That’s why they cannot get enough of the South African-born actress. The latest people to jump on the Thus Mbedu fan bandwagon are the people over at Rihanna’s Savage x Fenty lingerie brand.

The recently established intimate wear line usurped the long-held Victoria’s Secret throne almost overnight, and has hosted an annual fashion show in its place ever since the legacy brand was cancelled for not being diverse enough.

Savage x Fenty built itself on the back of what Victoria’s Secret simply failed to do; include everybody.

And now, people look forward to finding out just who will be featuring in the Savage x Fenty fashion show, either as a model or a performer.
