For a long time, when Kenya's entertainment industry began experiencing its current golden age -the golden age that has allowed so much talent to bubble to the top, Kenyan socialites were not even a notion.

I mean, we had video vixens for sure but we did not have socialites, divas or whatever the hell these lasses call themselves these days. And as I had a conversation with a friend of mine about the socialite phenomena, we got to talking about the socialites who completely disappeared from the limelight and why it was that they disappeared. i have compiled a list of them and I would like to share them with you below:

1. Soila Cole

She was a socialite for quite a short while. When she was, she simply did what all of them do, look for wealthy men and post photos of her debauchery on Snapchat and IG.

She became a mother in less than 6 months of her blowing up on the scene.

2. Pesh Lema

She's in a Ghanaian prison. You can read about her here:

4. Maiggie Shicko

She got out of the game when she got herself a caucasian lover. She has since resurfaced on social media as an influencer for a company that sells hair extensions.

5. Lisa Downey

This trollop retired from the game but her biggest claim to fame was having gotten into Davido's bed -similar claim to fame with Pendo I guess.

She seems to have flanked out of the game and now sells hair braids (is that what they are called?) on social media.

7. Maura Malanga

8. Kaluki Sandra

Kaluki struggled to connect with Kenyan audiences for a while until she just had to pick up her clothes and trudge on into single motherhood.

9. Vanessa Chettle

She had the longest run of all the lasses here and was successful enough to be on the reality TV show Nairobi Diaries. Unfortunately, all that went down the drain when she flushed it away after a fight with Pendo on the show.

She is now a single mother.

10. Capri Apantambua

Kayole's finest as she called herself just vanished. She deleted her trace on social media and just went underground.

11. Toxic Kwamboka

This was the first socialte and video vixen of the new regime. She got married to a soldier whom she left. She then was set to marry a caucasian man.

12. Julie Marjorie

Once rumoured to have been Waititu's chipo, this lass faded into the obscurity of becoming a waitress/ hostess/ bottle heaux. She used to terrorize young men with pictures of herself enjoying money showers but all that amounted to nought as she failed the socialite's exam: longevity.
