Rising Amapiano star Zee Nxumalo is under fire after a behind-the-scenes video surfaced online showing what fans believe was a dismissive attitude towards legendary entertainer Thembi Seete during a recent campaign photoshoot.
The now-viral clip appeared to capture Zee seemingly brushing off or ignoring Seete during a moment that should have highlighted mutual respect and collaboration.
The video sparked outrage, with many social media users accusing Zee of showing disrespect and attitude towards an icon in the South African entertainment industry.
One X user commented:
“She treated Thembi like her fan 😭 forgetting that Thembi has been in the game long before her 🙄.”
Another wrote:
“You will never mize Thembi Seete and get away with it. This is our ICON 💔.”
While some defended Zee, suggesting the clip may have been taken out of context, others urged her to issue a public explanation or apology.
As of this report, Zee Nxumalo has yet to respond to the controversy.
