LOLA HANNIGAN: THE NEW DAYSTAR SENSATION IN TOWN

#YOLO

She graced the cover of entertainment magazine- The Pulse; and got everyone talking. Meet Lola Hannigan- a 22-year-old journalism student at Daystar University and recently landed the role of KTN’s new show- #YOLO.

Co-hosting with Thierry Maxime Musonere, the pair are not just young but bubbly and fresh- what TV needs! They are now the talk of town- two passionate young people who will keep you glued to your screen! They have the smashing good looks, energy and that interactive drive.

But it hasn’t been an easy ride for Lola. Behind the smile and screen for her is another world- a life of hustle.

Lola has done commercials for Prestige Margarine; Nestle in India and Fair & lovely in Lebanon. Modeling for the iconic Strut It Afrika in 2012 and 2013 in Kenya; she got the opportunity to act in the Mali TV-Series too.

For her charmer co-host; it has been a life of hustle too. He started out as a violin tutor after learning how to play from his dad and by 20; he had acquired his first Subaru. He later sold it to invest in other lucrative ventures.

For Lola; the new celebrity status came as a blessing in disguise; “a friend gave my number to the producers of the show and they called me to ask whether I could attend the audition. I was told 30 people had auditioned; so even as I went to try my luck; I never thought I would land the job.”

Though wanting her life to remain private and avoiding to comment on whether she is dating or not, the cheerful sassy lass says she wants to be a news anchor in the near future.

-Catch the #YOLO Show on KTN; every Saturdays at 10am or check out their Facebook page- #KTN YOLO.
