- US star Chris Brown sold out his Johannesburg concert in just two hours, leaving fans buzzing.
- South Africans remind Makhadzi that comparing herself to Chris Brown might not be the best approach, as they’re at different stages in their careers.
Anderson Cooper here, and let’s talk about what’s going on with Makhadzi. The beloved South African artist has taken to Twitter (X) to express her disappointment over the lack of support she’s seeing for her upcoming One-Woman Show. It’s a bold move, and it’s sparking conversations across the nation. Makhadzi isn’t holding back, and she’s asking her fans to step up and show some love.
Why Makhadzi Is Speaking Out
Makhadzi, known for hits like “Number 1,” isn’t shy about voicing her concerns. The singer recently fired back at her fans for what she perceives as a lack of support when it comes to purchasing tickets for her One Woman Show happening at Peter Mokaba Stadium in Polokwane Central. This isn’t just about ticket sales—it’s about the emotional investment she’s put into this project. Makhadzi feels like she’s put her heart and soul into creating an unforgettable experience for her fans, and the slow ticket sales are hitting her hard.
Now, here’s the kicker. While Makhadzi struggles to sell tickets, US singer Chris Brown managed to sell out his show at FNB Stadium in Johannesburg within a mere two hours. Chris Brown, known for his chart-topping hit “Summer Too Hot,” will perform on December 14th and 15th, 2024. Makhadzi couldn’t help but voice her frustration: “South Africa is a movie. So I must take 10 years to sell out Peter Mokaba Stadium tickets. You guys gave Chris Brown 2 hours.” She even went as far as to say, “Buy the tickets before I cry.” It’s clear she’s feeling the pressure, and she’s not afraid to let it show.

South Africans React: A Reality Check for Makhadzi
The South African public wasn’t exactly shy in responding to Makhadzi’s comments. Many social media users chimed in to remind her that comparing herself to Chris Brown might not be the most constructive approach. After all, they’re at different points in their careers, with Chris Brown being a global superstar who appeals to a wide range of audiences across languages and cultures. One Twitter user, @lindamnkhonto, pointed out that even local legends like Cassper Nyovest took time to sell out venues, advising Makhadzi to keep marketing her show and stay patient.
@sontondlovu shared a more supportive message, urging fans to rally behind their queen: “Guys, please let’s show some love to our Queen @MakhadziSA. Let’s meet at Peter Mokaba. Somblief!!” Meanwhile, @nkulipp took a different tone, telling Makhadzi to relax and trust that people will buy tickets if they truly want to attend. Another user, @ThisisMfundo, offered some practical advice, suggesting that Makhadzi needs to broaden her appeal to reach a wider audience, much like Chris Brown does.
