With more than 3 comedy franchises under his belt, Churchill is one of the most sought-after comedians, businessmen and Mcees.

But life has not always been a smooth ride for Churchill as evidenced by this photo taken back in the day.

2. Huddah Monroe

It’s hard to believe that there was a time Huddah was not the most confident woman in the 254. But there was a time when her confidence tanked to zero after losing 4 teeth. This was after a horrible accident that not only cost her 4 front teeth but also her self-esteem as she went through primary school being bullied and called ‘Mapengo’. And due to the cruel taunts, the petite beauty used to hide her mouth when she smiled.

“I had an accident that could’ve killed me at 12 and lost 4 front teeth. I went through primary school being bullied, I was always called ‘Mapengo’. It affected my education so much coz I lost the confidence I always had,” she said in a post.

Her glo-up angel came in the form of flamboyant city lawyer Donald Kipkorir who paid a lump sum to have her teeth fixed.

The ‘Papa Shirandula’ actress recently shared a photo that she took way back before she made it and it’s amazing to see how much she has transformed.

When Hamisa Mobetto made her debut into the Kenyan showbiz scene thanks to some photos by BuoArt, we were all shook by her beauty. And we were even more inspired by her glo-up photo.

6. Lillian Muli

Lillian Muli’s transformation was so significant that some people thought that she had lightened her skin but ‘hajatoa tint, hizi ni effects za cocoa butter!’

7. Vera Sidika

Miss Sidika’s glo-up didn’t come cheap. The busty socialite disclosed that she had to cough up about 17 Million shillings for her skin lightening and a few millions on her breast augmentation.

“Looking good is my business. My body is my business, nobody else's but mine.” Vera defended her skin-lightening decision in a widely televised interview with NTV.

8. Diamond Platnumz

Before Mr Platnumz gained the usavoury reputation as the ‘Pizza Boy’ of East Africa due to his countless trysts with women, Diamond was a struggling boy from Tandale. A fact that made him chase the skirts even harder once he became famous.

In a past interview with Times FM, Diamond disclosed that he was like a fat kid in the candy store after gaining fame at 20 as all the girls he used to see on TV were finally his and so he ‘feasted’ on them with gusto.

“I found fame at around 20 and at that point I met some beautiful girls like the ones I had only seen on TV and I had to have relations with them as they were girls I couldn’t see in Tandale.”  He said.
