It will be one of the most momentous Vodacom Durban July’s in the race’s long history, not only in terms of the lack of spectators but also in terms of the peculiarity of the runners on the track.As usual, 18 brilliant horses will gallop down the Greyville track in pursuit of the biggest gong in South African horse racing – but, unlike in the previous 123 years, it will be eerily quiet.

The coronavirus pandemic means Saturday’s July will be contested behind closed doors – and almost a month later than originally planned.

The Vodacom Durban July will throw open the gates on a new ensemble for life in lockdown as Africa’s Greatest Horseracing event prepares to thrill fans and fashionistas with a historic 2020 version of this iconic race.

The Vodacom Durban July is the first major horseracing event and the first Vodacom sponsorship event to be hosted since the start of lockdown, and with a racing and fashion line-up that includes the drama of a possible hat-trick of wins for “Do It Again”, the thrill of a nationwide design competition, support for local small businesses that have been hardest hit by COVID-19, and daily data prizes in the build-up to race day.

Durban July is one of the amazing events Mzansi will ever have and there is nothing that can be compared to the joy expressed during this wonderful function as our favourite local celebrities get to show off what they are known best for.Amongst our celebs, dancer Zodwa Wabantu has been causing a stir with her sexxy taste of fashion leaving tongues of many wagging, both at the event and on social media.

However, things have gone west for this year’s Vodacom Durban July due to the ongoing pandemic crisis as people are not allowed to gather in order to curb the spread of the COVID-19 virus.

This surely is a slap in the face as Zodwa was already prepared for the day. Taking to social media, she shared a video revealing how ready she and her team were for the event. She captioned;

‘We were Ready💯💪🏽 Touch Down #DurbanJuly2020 I think we done👮🏾‍♀️security. Going to my Marquee🔥🔥🔥‘.

His face is everywhere. From discussing the culinary classic that is amagwinya on Instagram to invoking feelings of nostalgia with his quirky lockdown Chicken Licken advert, he’s become a household name.Comedian Tyson Ngubeni’s star has been rising throughout the lockdown period and he’s been having fun making South Africans laugh.

The 36-year-old from Soweto became a social media sensation after he premiered a video where he meticulously reports on a fence barricade, also known as a stop-nonsense, using a faultless British accent.He didn’t plan the video and didn’t know it would do so well.

His church group asked him to do a stand-up comedy set for their virtual services, but he had only a week to put something together. He told them he would rather do skits, which are short comedic videos.I was like okay. I made like a six minutes thing, a news parody. There was an anchor character and there were field reporters. I was playing multiple characters and one of them was that field reporter, reporting on a stop-nonsense,” he says.

The video quickly went viral and he started doing more.Two months later, he is now on a mainstream television advert with one of the biggest chicken franchises in South Africa.

The experience is still all too surreal, he tells us. He’d been trying to get into the industry for a while after he finished his drama and journalism studies at Rhodes University. He was constantly rejected. Now things have turned around for him.

“When that ad came out last week it really blew my mind and I actually spent a lot of that day in tears,” he recalls.

“Just thinking about everything that has happened up to now, wanting to work at this level for so long and being turned down by agencies for so long even after getting the drama degree.”

The love from fans and finally getting recognition has made him want to work harder.

He’s always had a knack for accents, he says, and uses the British accent because it’s hilarious and he can execute it quite well.

He learnt to work accents when he spent three years working at a call center after finishing his studies. He was servicing customers from the Netherlands and that meant he had to speak to them in Dutch.

A year after getting to the firm one of his missions was to sound as Dutch as possible so that customers believed they were speaking to a fellow countryman.

Media personality Somizi Mhlongo-Motaung took to social media to express his shock at how people were still able to recognise his famous face under his mask.The star, who is currently living in Ballito’s exclusive Zimbali Coastal Resort & Estate following the death of his mother, posted a hilarious video on his Instagram page about a trip to the grocery store that saw him getting recognised by the store manager.Let me tell you what happened, I am at a The Idols SA judge said that although being famous had its benefits, wearing a mask sometimes meant that he could walk around like a normal person and not be recognised, however, it seems like that might not always be the care for Somgaga.supermarket wearing a mask and this is what I look like so how do people recognise me? I know I am famous but I am thinking that this mask is going to help, which it does; but then I can see people are looking at me”, he said.The star went on to say that while in the store he started to walk differently so that people would not recognise him but that did not help.He said that the most shocking part of his experience was that it was a white man that recognised him.“I would expect it from a black guy but this white guy, who I think was a manager at the store, says ‘How are you doing Somizi”.
