Johannesburg, South Africa – September 8, 2023 – Duduzile Ngwenya, better known by her stage name DJ Lady Du, has not only made a significant mark in the music industry but is also making headlines for her compassion and empathy towards a woman caught in a public controversy. The South African DJ and songwriter’s rise to fame took a unique turn when she extended a heartfelt offer of assistance to a woman caught stealing pampers, sparking a wave of emotions and discussions on social media.

DJ Lady Du’s journey in the music industry began at the tender age of 9, but it wasn’t until 2020 that her talent gained national recognition. She candidly admits that she had contemplated giving up on her career before fame unexpectedly came knocking at her door. Fast forward to today, and her fame has transcended borders, with her image adorning a billboard in Times Square, New York.

The recent incident that put DJ Lady Du back in the spotlight was a video circulating on social media showing a woman being confronted for stealing pampers. The video drew a mix of reactions, with many expressing their disapproval of the public humiliation the woman faced.

Among those moved by the video was DJ Lady Du, who took to social media to share her thoughts. In her post, she expressed empathy for the woman’s situation while clarifying that she did not condone theft. Her message struck a chord with her followers, and she pledged to help the woman by providing pampers for her child.

Her heartfelt post sparked an outpouring of support and emotions from her fans and followers. One comment read, “Some people are heartless, they even do the same to a person who has stolen food. Instead of helping that person, they will be making fun of them and making them trend in videos.” Another comment echoed the sentiment, stating, “I’m so heartbroken. There was no need to do this. Instead, they should have taken her to a private place rather than humiliate her like this.”
