Cape Town - Birthdays are clearly a big deal for our Mzansi celebrities.
From celebrating their birthdays in Dubai to gifting themselves with expensive items, actress Amanda du-Pont has also jumped onto the wagon.
Taking to Instagram to share a snap of her expensive early birthday gift to herself, Amanda who will be turning 30 on 26 June, had us green with envy with her new sports car.
Speaking to DRUM about acquiring her new car, the Skeem Saam actress revealed that she has always had a love for cars and the McLaren has always been on her wish list.
“Those close to me know I have always had a love for cars. The McLaren is one of the cars I’ve had on my vision board. I’m thrilled and blessed to have been able to purchase it in my birthday month” an excited Amanda said.
She also revealed that she went for the special MSO Mauvine Blue colour after her followers helped her pick a colour through an poll she posted on her Instagram Stories.
While many may think that sports cars are ideal for men, the Skeem Saam actress believes that women are a force to be reckoned with and can do anything that men do.
“Woman are doing big things, they always have been in all sectors of their lives. It may only be apparent now, but we are a force to be reckoned with. Women are empowering and being empowered. Women are entering spaces, and acquiring what was perhaps only perceived to be for men,” she told DRUM.
