Ntsiki in flames as Somizi roast ignites
WHAT was supposed to be a night to roast Somizi Mhlongo turned out to be what Twitter dubbed the revenge of Black Twitter on the outspoken Ntsiki Mazwai.
The roast‚ which aired on Monday night‚ left tweeps shocked as they saw the plot twist away from the Comedy Central Roast of Somizi to a straight attack on Ntsiki Mazwai.
While a roast is generally done in good spirit‚ tweeps just couldn’t believe how hard everyone went in for Ntsiki‚ even though the main target was supposed to be Somgaga.
Comedian Skhumba‚ who was the highlight of the night for most viewers‚ sealed the night and went in the hardest for Ntsiki.
There was absolutely no recovering after Skhumba was done with Ntsiki. Somizi’s fire clapbacks and all the other jokes that followed, including Nomzamo and her toes or Mbaweezy being demoted, just couldn’t match the volcano that erupted on Ntsiki.
During his pre-show interview‚ Skhumba made it clear that he wasn’t going to stick to the script.
“Tactics for Skhumba? Those things don’t really work for me. I’m a straightforward guy. I’m just going to speak my mind. I don’t like planning‚” he said before the show.
Most viewers on Twitter had concluded that the Roast
of Somizi quickly became the Roast of Ntsiki and that the poet saw serious flames.
Meanwhile Ntsiki smiled through the entire night‚ like the queen that she is. But Skhumba was also brutal with ex-police minister Fikile Mbalula‚ comparing him EFF MP Mbuyiseni Ndlozi. “You are useless … the ANC promoted Bathabile Dlamini and demoted you. And you are sober.”
