“Growing up in a system that tells you just because of your skin colour...” — Motsi Mabuse Quote

“Growing up in a system that tells you just because of your skin colour you are not good enough - you learn at a very young age to toughen up.”

“People only go by looks. If you have big breasts it doesn't mean that you are dumb.”

“I just want my daughter to grow up in a society where she feels accepted being South African, German and Ukrainian.”

“Because people are not punished, they feel like they can keep saying things about the colour of my skin to try to affect how I play. But they could try to do that in other ways, and I wouldn't have a problem with that.”

“I'm really playful with eyeshadows and love to experiment with colour.”

“At the end of the day, a show like 'Strictly' is not about what colour you are, or where you come from. It is about how hard you are prepared to work and how well you can dance.”
