Kgomotso Christopher speaks on getting ready for new Scandal! season

After a long December break,  it takes a while before getting in sync once again. Kgomosto Christopher spoke about her experience and what she does to be back in sync.

It is all about getting her mind and soul in the right framework to start the year.

She explains: “While I don’t focus too much on resolutions, I like to ponder on what I hope the universe will bless me with in the new year. I need to be honest with what I need to do to prepare myself to receive these blessing. What steps to take to align myself with the blessings I would like to receive. For this reason, I do a lot more introspective and soul revival at the beginning of the year.”

Getting back into her role as Yvonne on Scandal! usually starts with the look of the character.

“When it’s back to work and it’s the beginning of the year, it’s time to get back into continuity. Nails, hair and even possibly your weight,” she says. Though the star adds that she’s been lucky enough never to fall victim to that little bit of weight gain over the festive period that many of us know so well. So for her it’s all about restoring Yvonne’s long, red signature nails and making sure that she treats her natural hair “before the year of wigs rolls in”.

The last thing to get Kgomotso’s mind in the right place is her focus on the storyline.

“This is the time for reading story breakdowns and of course having a chat with producers about what they have in mind for the character and any ideas you may have as the actor.”

She believes that 2019 is her year of yes.

“For me this means pursuing dreams without second-guessing them, saying yes to the universe and all the blessing I would like to receive. Choosing to see the ‘yes’ as well as positives in life and not dwell on challenges.”
