The purchase of a new car comes right after he celebrated the music video for “Jerusalema” having more than 100 million views on YouTube.

Taking to social media on Thursday, Master KG shared the exciting news, also expressing his gratitude for the immense support, he wrote: “Dreams Are Valid Don’t Sleep On Your Self” We Did It @nomcebozikode Thank You World.”

“Jerusalema”, which is produced by the Limpopo-born musician and record producer, featuring Hammarsdale, Durban born vocalist Nomcebo Zikode, has managed to transcend national borders and has officially become an international hit.

During the global pandemic, “Jerusalema”, which is accompanied by unique dance moves, the viral #JerusalemaDanceChallenge have seen folks from all walks of life put on their dancing shoes, shaking off the lockdown blues.

The song has been topping global charts, hitting the number one spot in 10 countries including South Africa, France, Romania, Portugal and Italy.

Theo Kgosinkwe put a ring on model Vourne Williams’ finger at her 26th birthday dinner, and a year later they made it official.

Theo Kgosinkwe and his bae Vourne celebrate their union after the couple officially got hitched over the weekend. They were married in a small and intimate ceremony, thanks to Covid-19, and said they planned to have the big celebration in 2021.

They both shared snaps of their big day and said they couldn’t wait to be husband and wife.

“Due to Covid-19, Vourne and I had to postpone our wedding celebrations until 2021, but we couldn’t wait to be husband and wife. Yesterday I married my bestie. We can’t wait to celebrate with family and friends next year,,” Theo said in an Instagram post.

Since the end of his 15-year marriage to Rose, with whom he has two children, Theo has tried to keep his personal life far away from the spotlight.

Theo and Vourne got engaged a little over a year ago at Vourne’s 26th birthday dinner.

The man, who is clearly a romantic, asked the 26-year-old model the big question while serenading her, accompanied by an acoustic guitarist.

The couple have been living their best lives together, also worshipping and blogging together. They recently beat Covid-19 as a couple.

Their friends, family and fans flooded their timelines with messages of love and well wishes.

“My brother and friend Theo married his friend and love of his life yesterday, the ever-so beautiful Vourne. at an intimate and beautiful ceremony. Congratulations. Love you both,” Nhlanhla said.

Check out how happy they look in their wedding snaps below.

When TV personality Minnie Dlamini took to Twitter to show off her new look, the last thing she probably expected was to get heat which resulted in her topping the Twitter trends list.

The star sparked outrage and fierce debate on Tuesday night when she posted a pic of her wearing her hair in Bantu knots.

She told fans that “just because it’s ghetto, doesn’t mean it’s not fabulous”.

Just because it's ghetto, doesn't mean it's not fabulous 💎 Loving my #BantuKnots pic.twitter.com/ai0khq0ldB

She had also posted the same snap on Instagram alongside the caption: “I can go from lady to ghetto in a second #BantuKnots.”

While some, including Idols SA judge Unathi Nkayi and singer Kelly Khumalo, were all for the look, others dragged Minnie for her use of the word “ghetto” to describe the hairstyle.

They argued that the style was beautiful and worn by women around the world. They argued that calling natural hair “ghetto” confirmed “the stereotype that black culture is inferior and barbaric”.

Fans flooded the TL with pictures of their own Bantu knots.

Imagine taking years to gain the confidence to wear natural hairstyles like bantu knots outside, just to come on here and see one of your faves calling it "ghetto". Minnie , girl. That post was NOT IT pic.twitter.com/AcQSvdwJaY

As beautiful as you may look your caption is misleading. I rocked this hair a while back but ghetto isn't it minnie ka gana. pic.twitter.com/kl1l1Vza21

Minnie’s caption is deeply disappointing and hurtful to every black girl who has been labeled ghetto for their natural hair.

#MINNIE

The level of disrespect and disappointment towards Minnie for labeling our hair as Ghetto is pathetic.

She should really never forget we’re her bread was buttered from. BLACK HAIR IS NOT GHETTO REPEAT AFTER ME pic.twitter.com/FpYI3sOO5y

Minnie has not responded to the backlash.

In August 2017 Simz became a young widow after her husband, Dumi Masilela, was shot and killed in a botched hijacking.

We all watched Simz go through an unimaginable amount of pain caused by a tragedy so sudden and so brutal that the thought of healing and being restored seemed far-fetched.

We watched her grieve and go through a number of painful firsts.

First birthday without him, first anniversary, and all the other moments she didn’t have the strength to share.

I was happy to hear that Simz and her new boyfriend Tino Chinyani are expecting. The pregnancy reveal was done by both the love birds on a post on Instagram where Simphiwe “Simz”was in front of a bright yellow background with flowers around her and her baby bump visible.

Indeed there is a God in heaven. He wiped away my tears and gave me joy in abundance. You’ve brought hope and purpose to my life. @tino_chinyani I will forever be grateful to you for this beautiful gift and for teaching me how to love again. I love you both with all my heart.

Many others like myself are so happy to finally watch her glow, win, smile, find love, conceive a child and just be restored.

Simz deserves every bit of happiness the world has to offer. God knows she’s had her share of pain.

With that being said, from what I can tell, Tino has a lot of people to answer to if he even thinks about breaking her heart.

Bonang Matheba is on cloud nine after broadcaster SABC reported that her latest reality show had broken viewership records.

A Very Bonang Year, based in part on her time in the US last year, debuted on SABC1 last weekend, reaching more than 1.8 million viewers.

“We are excited to announce that A Very Bonang Year reached a record-breaking 1.86 million viewership in its first episode of broadcast. This is unheard of for any broadcast platform in SA for a celebrity-driven reality show genre and at a time when SA viewers have more reality TV content to choose from,” Zandile Nkonyeni, Head of PR: SABC TV Channels, said in a statement.

She said the channel had avoided celebrity reality shows until now and was happy to see their decision to acquire Bonang’s show pay off.

The show was also a huge hit online, trending for two days straight. According to a statement from Bonang’s team, it reached more than 1.3 billion impressions on social media.

“The extraordinary amount of hashtag impressions — number 1 trending hashtag in SA over Saturday & Sunday — emphasised the ‘B Effect’, with even more hashtag impressions than the 1.1 billion reached during the launch of The House of BNG last year,” they claimed.

Bonang was just as excited at the news and told fans it was “madness”.

The Queen actor SK Khoza has apologised to his fans, friends and the Fergusons after a video of him at a party featuring topless women in a jacuzzi went viral on social media this week.

The video shows the actor walking around the room, while topless women danced and touched each other. The video surfaced online and landed the actor on the trends list.

As fans shared their outrage over the incident, SK took to Twitter to apologise for his actions.

“An inappropriate video of myself was leaked online and I would like to profusely apologise to my family, friends, employers and fans for embarrassing them and myself.

“I have put Ferguson Films, my family, and Mzansi Magic in a position I totally regret,” he said.

He admitted that his actions were “unacceptable and said he should have made “better decisions”.

The party appeared to have happened during the lockdown to curb the spread of Covid-19, when mass gatherings and parties are prohibited, and SK said that he took full responsibility for his actions.

“I take full responsibility, especially at a time we are faced with a serious pandemic. I should have made better decisions. I need to do better. To everyone I have disappointed and hurt, I am truly sorry.”

Rapper AKA is back in the game after recovering from Covid-19, and went back at it and hit the gym this week, ahead of his boxing match with rival Cassper Nyovest.

The star took to Twitter on Monday to post a video of himself boxing, leading to a flurry of comments from his fans.

He thanked one of the users for his encouragement and revealed that it was his first session since recovering from the coronavirus earlier this month, and it was “tough”.

Thanks. First day back after beating COVID 😢 … it was TOUGH. https://t.co/cSyfBipN6s

— AKA (@akaworldwide) July 20, 2020

AKA first brought up the fight in a series of tweets earlier this year when he posted a video on Twitter of himself at the gym hitting a boxing bag. He wrote, “Tag short pan. Let him know his management don’t care about him letting him do this fight.”

At first Cassper appeared to reject the offer but later agreed.

The rapper is now leaving the house, after telling fans last week that he had recovered from the coronavirus.
