Camille “Millie” Terblanche, the Cape Town-born model and reality TV star who once dubbed herself the “prettiest girl in Guyana,” has sparked a fresh wave of online buzz — but not for the reasons you might expect.
This time, her spotlight moment happened on the prestigious Cannes Film Festival red carpet, where her candid remarks quickly went viral.
Millie’s Bold Cannes Red Carpet Moment
Last weekend marked Millie’s first-ever appearance at Cannes, and she didn’t hold back when asked how she scored an invite to this exclusive event.
In a video that’s been making the rounds on social media, Millie casually admitted, “I don’t do anything.
Luckily, I’m from a rich family, so I get to be a stay-at-home daughter and just spend daddy’s money!” She added with a shrug, “I’m just here for the vibe, to walk the red carpet and get some pics.”
When pressed for advice on how to be successful and wealthy, her blunt answer was: “Basically, just have rich parents.”
Not surprisingly, her offhand comments drew a lot of attention — and not the good kind.
South Africans React to Millie’s Controversial Remarks
Millie’s open confession didn’t sit well with many, especially South Africans watching online.
Comments ranged from frustration to outright disdain.
One user called her a “world class doos,” while another said, “She makes me sick.”
Others pointed out how she openly admits to living off her family’s wealth without doing anything herself, labeling her “a terrible person” despite her money.
It’s clear that for many viewers, Millie’s unapologetic attitude rubbed people the wrong way.
The Backstory of Millie’s Social Media Storms
This isn’t Millie’s first brush with controversy. Back in 2021, the Love Island South Africa contestant made headlines after a “rape joke” on the show sparked outrage.
Then there was her TikTok travel blog “Guyana Living,” where she proudly proclaimed herself the “prettiest girl” in Guyana, stirring up even more backlash.
Her claims about being the most attractive woman in the country, mixed with comments about Guyana’s oil wealth and casual references to the tragic Jonestown massacre, painted her as arrogant and out of touch with the culture she was briefly living in.
