The South African entertainer and businesswoman DJ Zinhle has took to her social media platforms to laugh at the recent portraits of herself. This isn’t something that was expected since most celebrities usually take offense to such abstract portraits of themselves. At times they might go as far as requesting for the artist to retract the portrait from any social media platforms. Let alone using it to market their work, that’s something that would be regarded as a no-go zone for most artists, if the celebrity doesn’t approve of their work. As they might feel that it doesn’t match with their brand and could be degrading their hard work.
OH well, DJ Zinhle is a different breed of a celebrity as she decided to have fun with the portrait that didn’t look anything like her. As it seems like the artist that drew it was still in the beginning stages of learning the craft. The only thing that the artist can close into getting correct was the nose ring, earring and even the weave too. However, the whole shape of Zinhle’s head didn’t match the original picture as the artist went overboard with it.
The My Name Is hit maker wrote on Twitter: “Guys, talk to me.” Which was accompanied by a laughing face emoji as she couldn’t believe that there’s an artist out there that though the portrait resembled her. Nevertheless, the TV personality had a lot of attraction with her tweet as it had over 770 comments, 950 retweets and 11 900 likes.
Numerous people took to the comment section to share their thoughts on the portrait.
@Nqo_Ndawondz said, “Are these cheek bones or eye lashes. 2nd frame.”
@Buhle_TheFirst said, “Aahh… such artistry! Utter brilliance! This puts the “fine” in fine art. I see an abstract definition of your inner child, fully pronounced to bring out your radiance. And other such oofaloofaloomf that art people say.”
