The biggest winner of the evening was Nadia Jaftha, who not only bagged the biggest award of the evening, the DStv Content of the Year Award, but also took home the Comedy Award and Thumb-stopping Award.
Nadia started her content creator journey with a Youtube page, with some of her oldest viewable videos dating back to 2016. Since then, she has found viral fame across social media, including on her Tik Tok page:

Nadia is also at the helm of her own fashion brands, Dusti (run by herself and makeup artist Lindy Lin) and For Everyone Asking. As a trending creator and leading force of influence to many young girls and women in SA, it’s obvious that Nadia has understood the assignment.
Speaking about her win at 2022 DStv Content Creator awards, Nadia said, “it is an honour to win such an award, and never in my wildest thoughts did I think that I would win three awards. Thank you to everyone who voted for me and to everyone who voted for any of the amazing content creators who were nominees in their respective categories.”
