This trip is going to be a magnificent one and Somizi and Vusi have a lot to celebrate aside from the fact that people keep harassing Vusi over his sexuality and as usual Somizi was there to clap back at the haters.

“angilwi ngiyabuza (I’m not fighting, I’m asking)..what’s the obsession with other people’s sexuality…its as if the answers will improve a certain aspect of your life….or as if it makes one feel better about themselves if they out someone else….trust me he is content and I hope you are too and enjoy your life,” he said.

A tweep said when one comes out, some gain confident to also come out but Somizi rubbished that.

“How many people should come out for people to be comfortable with themselves and why should it take that for them to reach that point…do u think if more black people owned land and the world would mean racism will end …nope…I just think people must deal with their homophobia,” he wrote.

Gather the congregation and ready the choir, Lady Zamar is in preach mode and dropped some pearls of wisdom on the topic of hate this week. The star has had her fair share of trips to the Twitter trends list, after being dragged for everything from her personal life to fashion.

She took to Twitter this week to address the hate she has been getting over the last few years and reminded her fans that haters are only hurting themselves. “Hate kills only you,” she said. Zamar added that so much energy is “wasted” trying to bring someone down, while destroying your own soul in the process.

You waste so much time plotting and planning someone’s demise only for it to be your own grave you’re digging.” She encouraged her followers to stay in their own lane and not listen to the hate. “Focus on your own growth and your own journey,” she added.

Her comments come just months after she told fans that often a hater can become a fan. “So what if some people don’t understand you? If they criticise and berate you? Fact is, it won’t be everyone and eventually, haters will become fans if you stay authentic, honest and true to you and who you are.”

Speaking to TshisaLIVE about how she felt about the backlash she often got, the Collide hitmaker explained that she was tired of people saying she was always looking for attention.“I am trying to find my identity as an African child and show others they can do that too without being placed in a mould of what you should wear or how you should look
