The star took to social media to share a video clip of the popular “you have insufficient funds please recharge” among other services offered by MTN.
While many South Africans had unconsciously linked the voice to a white woman, Kgomotso Christopher, confirmed on social media that she’s been in the business for over six years.
“Yep. I am glad you remember what I’ve always said. Remember I said for long voicework was my main income stream because I had no fulltime acting work…in fact it was this consistent MTN work I was referring to (sic),” – Kgomotso replied to a Twitter user.
Another user thought the voice behind MTN customer care line was of a white woman, the actress responded by saying: “I am sure some of them are. They still use the recordings made with the previous voice artist before I started doing the prompts in 2012 (sic).”
“The recordings are called (IVR) internal voice recording. So the established style/tone of the recording voice. I have done the voice for a while. But there were other artists who may be white who also did and those recording are still also used. Also, when I am not available, they use a similar voice, so the MTN phone voice stays consistent (sic),” – she added.
