“She’s bossy yerrrr. I even saw some of her Instagram videos, she was bossing him around,” one person said while another added:

“This was a huge red flag, and poor guy kept his cool and remained calm. Even if she was worried about invitations and all, this only took about 5 minutes max, she’s complaining about buildings and everything”

Rachel Kolisi continues to find her way around Paris, France. During the first few days in Paris, she shared that she and her kids have been making some adjustments since relocating a month ago. In a previous Instagram post, she explained that she was still trying to familiarise herself with her new neighbourhood as well as with the driving rules in the new country.

“I had to do a practice run without the kids first. And successfully got us home after the park, with the help of Google Maps (It should have taken 15 minutes. But, after about an hour of taking wrong turns, we made it),” she shared.

 

 

Well, it seems Rachel’s new home is not too far from the supermarket as she and her kids, Nicholas (8) and Keziah (6) decided to take a walk and get some groceries. However, on their way back, the rain poured down heavily on them. And, by the time they got back to their home, they were soaked!

“An accurate summary of 1 month in France 🙃,” Rachel said as she uploaded the video on her feed.

27-year-old MaGear hitmaker, Makhadzi is known for her energetic stage performances. Her recent performance at the Royal Heritage Festival this past weekend had her defying gravity as she was suspended from a cable during her grand entrance at the Royal Gardens in Nandoni Dam. She wore a yellow flowy masterpiece and hung from the rooftop and almost resembled a big yellow bird soaring above the large audience.

 

 

 

 

 

 

However, mid-show, the harness tied to Makhadzi seemed to have gotten tangled between the lights, causing her to be stuck above the crowd with no one able to reach her. After some time, she managed to get back down to ground level and continued her performance on the stage.

The awkward hiccup lasted just a few seconds in what almost felt like a lifetime. According to Phalaphala FM, this year, the Royal Heritage Fest returned for the first time in four years. At their last festival in 2019, 25 000 people came to enjoy the music and lifestyle event. After seeing Makhadzi in the video, netizens rushed to the comment section with their opinions regarding her recent stunt.
