Somizi in line for top television award
The DStv Mzansi Viewers’ Choice Awards is back for a second year and it looks like it’s going to be the hunger games in most categories‚ especially the Favourite Personality Of The Year‚ which features Somizi and Bonang Matheba.
Mzansi Magic announced the list of nominees at a swanky event in Johannesburg on Tuesday‚ which was hosted by Queen B. Just as B stepped onto the stage with her floral flowy dress‚ she gave a warm greeting to the audience and an even hotter greeting to Somizi.
“Hello Somgaga!” she said which left the crowd shocked.
The former besties-turned-frenemies seemed to be bouncing some energy off each other but it wasn’t all hostile.
The plot thickened when the Favourite Personality Of The Year nominees were announced and both B and Somizi’s names were mentioned alongside Papa Penny Ahee‚ Nomzamo Mbatha and Kagiso Rabada.
After the announcement‚ B told Somizi‚ that he should get his fans into gear if he wanted to take the award.
Somizi then shouted from the crowd‚ “Yasss honey‚ hae du?” and B responded‚ “Ya tsamaya!”.
“I think (if I don’t win)‚ Nomzamo had a very strong year. Somizi‚ you can never say no to that. Kagiso‚ at 23‚ he’s internationally recognised. Can you imagine being in such a category?” Bonang said after the event.
Meanwhile both Bonang and Somizi’s army of fans are ready to battle it out! Who will take it? We’ll only know on November 24.
