Tali Babes co-stars in new SuzelleDIY video
Promotional videos for Showmax Original's Tali's Wedding Diary have generated nearly two million views in less than a month, with the trailer trending on YouTube for the week of its release. And while @Tali_babes has been an undeniable hit on Instagram, she's still not as popular as SuzelleDIY, whose YouTube channel has more than 23 million views.
Suzelle has been very supportive of @Tali_babes, following her on Instagram and inviting the bride-to-be onto her YouTube show for an episode called How To Make A DIY Wedding Cake. But while Suzelle starts the episode praising Tali as “gorgeous” and “fabulous,” things quickly get tense as Tali and Suzelle disagree over, well, everything, really.
Suzelle and Tali are both played by actress Julia Anastasopoulos and co-created with her husband, Ari Kruger, who directs both shows. Ari is also known as one of only three South African directors to have directed two Vimeo Staff Picks, the short films Jakkals13 and Focus.
Premiering this Thursday, 14 December 2017, Tali’s Wedding Diary follows a self-obsessed Sandton princess (Julia) who’s moved to Cape Town and is filming the build-up to her wedding to her property-agent fiance Darren (Anton Taylor, star of the popular web series Jozi Shore and the award-winning short Money, Keys, Phone).
