Netflix's Perfect Match is a dating show, but it's also a competition where challenges and eliminations will determine your fate. That's why Tolú Ekundare will be one to watch when season two launches in Tulum, Mexico.
“ The perfect match means finding the person who makes every fiber of your body tingle with excitement,” Tolú says in the second season, which premieres June 7. "It's about finding the person you really want to be in a relationship with." I'm done, you guys! "
Granted, Perfect Match does look like a game-rich environment. But Tolu is ready to take on the challenge. Her line this season is "Protagonist Energy," and if you're familiar with her tenure at Netflix, you'll understand why that's an appropriate moniker. If not, here's a look back at Tolú's time at The Trust , and what she's been up to since.
Her twists and turns on trust
According to the Netflix bio, Tolú is a marketing manager in Houston. She competed in the first season of the Netflix series Trust: The Greed Game. If you're unfamiliar with the competition show (which premiered earlier this year), it brings together strangers who must decide for themselves how to divide a $250,000 prize.
As the title of the game suggests, contestants can choose to make bold moves to get themselves as much cash as possible. Tolú did just that, making the late-game decision to deduct $25,000 from the show's coffers.
"Ultimately, no one is going to take care of me the way I do," she told Netflix. "Yes, some people would call it selfish, but honestly I don't think selfishness is a bad quality. The world is a cruel and unforgiving place. I will always support the baby girl - the baby girl is Tolú, period . ”
Toru joined four winners this season, though she was the only alumnus to bring her talents to a perfect match. It's a significant first, as most of the other contestants come from well-known shows like Love Is Blind and So Hot. Coming from a new show may also give her a gaming edge, as her castmates won't know how strategic she really is.
Tolú’s Instagram is Total Travel Inspo
In addition to Perfect Match and The Trust, Tolú shares her life on social media. Her Instagram @toluekundare is filled with tons of fashion and travel inspiration.
In addition to working as a marketing manager, the 27-year-old also works in acting and modeling, and made her debut in the 2022 Monaleo music video.
