ChianoSky is on fire!

She’s opening for Justin Bieber and is up for five SAMA nominations this weekend – our GLAMOUR Woman of the Year ChianoSky is on fire!

 

The pop sensation who is dating SA rapper Ross Jack is up for the second highest amount of nominations at the SAMAs including Female Artist of the Year. We caught up with her before the launch of her album and chatted to her about what she can’t live without. “My music book”, where she documents pretty much everything, “red lippy,” of course, “my music collection and my Diana camera,” which she received from a friend. And what makes this natural GLAMazon feel GLAM? “When I really curl my hair, I feel like Diana Ross and a good pair of heels – if you buy a good pair of shoes, wear them!”

 

See the rest of the nominees for the SAMAs, which take place a the SunCity Superbowl this weekend:
