Ordinary folk had to stay home with nothing to do during the lockdown. But Mzansi power couple Zakes Bantwini and Nandi Madida made big moves.

After being married for four years, the couple have decided to hit the studio and make music together.

With the coronavirus lockdown in place, they had enough time to work together because their schedules were not as hectic as usual.Speaking to SunBuzz, Nandi said: “We were not our usual busy selves, so we had time to collaborate on a song called Organic, which is due for release on 18 September.”

They wanted the collaboration to happen organically. She said they had other projects in the pipeline.

Nandi said: “It’s beautiful to now be able to work together.We’ve both enjoyed fruitful careers, but we’re also powerful working together.

“It’s beautiful that we’re able to also work together to achieve the same amount of success we’re able to achieve individually.

“We didn’t want to force things, as we believe that things need to happen naturally.

“And this time we’re more involved behind the scenes as opposed to in front.

“It will all be shared soon with everyone.”

Zakes was just as upbeat about working with his beautiful wife.

“We did a song for a movie by Akin Omotoso, Tell Me Sweet Something, so working with my wife again on this project was amazing.

“Now we’re ready to build our empire together.”

Nandi, a singer, and actress, said she and her husband’s business and TV projects would be behind the scenes.

“We’re working behind the scenes on our upcoming projects,” she said.

Boity Thulo might just be one of the most sincere media personalities, or an aspiring Olivia Pope. And if tweeps are to be believed, it is leaning to the latter. Why? Here’s a quick catch session.

The star had taken to Twitter just last week to speak about her love for the bag. The tweets come as expected as the good sis’ dreams through her tweets. But then a male tweep decided to drag Boity for being in her “thirties”- when she actually just turned 30-years-old this year- and still single. The tweep went on to suggest if she is looking for a man with a bag as heavy as hers she stay single for a while.

No one is sure why, but Boity was clearly not having it that day and went in on the tweep by referring to them as a “roach.” It did not take long for other male tweeps to start attacking the rapper turned reality star in her mentions. Boity instead of blocking that hate decided to plunge head in first with a tweet that suggested that men are “unemployed roaches” that stay on Twitter gossiping because they have nothing else to do.

Fast forward to Thursday, 3 September 2020, Boity returns to the Twitter streets and offered an “apology.” In her words she basically stated that, “These men insulted me in every way possible. I too responded with insults and proceeded to call those men unemployed roaches. If you didn’t insult me that day, the insult was not meant for you.” She then added a smiling face emoji to showcase that there were no hard feelings.

And then on Friday, 4 September 2020, Boity announces her “Boity Pink Sapphire” Eau de Parfum, asking for support from tweeps to buy her fragrance. But the “apology” had not stuck, so tweeps went in reminding her of her roach comments. They did so, so much that “roaches” trended with many inquiring if the apology was sincere or was her way of saying, “Let’s move on, so you can buy my fragrance.”
