Sally and Sally: With red-rimmed glasses, Sally Burdett on the eNCA imitates Sally Jesse Raphael with the same name and look.


On the left: Sally Burdett, news anchor on e.tv and eNCA (DStv 403). On the right: Sally Jesse Raphael, former American talk show host.

The similarities? Well, both are called Sally.

Oh, and South Africa Sally is wearing red-rimmed glasses just like American Sally.

It's not clear why South Africa Sally would specifically choose red-rimmed glasses.

As a news woman over decades and working in television, its a given that South Africa Sally must be keenly aware of American Sally who always wore (and still does!) red-rimmed glasses as her signature look.
