BREAKING. Entries open for MasterChef South Africa on M-Net; contestants must first complete a set of pre-registration questions.


Entries has opened today, as I told you RIGHT HERE would happen from today for MasterChef South Africa on M-Net that will be producing a local version of the cooking reality show.

MasterChef South Africa will be co-produced by Curious Pictures and Lucky Bean Media and South Africans can now enter online at the M-Net website.

Potential contestants will have to complete a ''pre-registration'' online, since the MasterChef South Africa producers will want to see potential contestants first, just like the screening that happened for Survivor SA.

Contestants have to indicate on the pre-registration for MasterChef South Africa whether they have worked professionally in a kitchen before or not (it won't disqualify you), had any training as a chef, and whether Cape Town, Durban or Johannesburg are the closest city for an audition.

Then contestants have to then give their personal contact information, tell about your cooking experience, and give more personal information about who you are and why you would make a great contestant for MasterChef South Africa.

Potential MasterChef South Africa contestants have to answer questions such as: Who's your biggest cooking influence? When did you realize that cooking and making food is what you want to do? When did you first fell in love with food? Who taught you how to cook? What's your favourite dish? Of course there's no incorrect answers. Contestants also have to say why they want to ''change your life to become a professional in the cooking industry''.

Potential contestants are asked to tell more about their loved ones, their hobbies and share the ''great ambition in your life'', and separately say where you see yourself in five years' time. Contestants have to divulge the most difficult thing in their life so far and their greatest achievements.
