Thapelo Molomo, Mzansi’s Idols SA 2022 winner, found himself at the centre of controversy after a tweep called him out for his side hustle.
Thapelo Molomo took home the grand prize of R1 million in the singing competition. Previously, the celebrity was hounded by fans who claimed he was broke after being seen selling atchaar and eggs from his car. Rumours that the Phanda Phanda hitmaker is broke were immediately denied.
In his ambition to be an inspirational artist, he believes that his new venture would open Mzansi artists’ eyes to the reality that they may earn money in various ways. Recently, the singer was harassed on Twitter by a tweep who posted photos of him selling atchaar and eggs from his car.
“Mzansi in shock!! As IdolsSA winner, Thapelo, who won R1 million, is now selling eggs & atchaar at the taxi rank.”
Shortly after the tweep dragged the Idols SA winner on Twitter, fans and followers of the star quickly defended Molomo, calling out the tweep as a jealous human being.
“It is people who are busy with nothing that see something wrong with what he’s doing. People who wake up at 11 am to eat and sit on their couches all day.”
“He doesn’t even need those millions in his daily life. He is a police. That’s his side hustle.”
