Ntsiki Mazwai Speaks Out About Body Shaming: A Conversation About Standards And Double Standards
- Ntsiki Mazwai boldly compared her body to Rihanna’s, expressing frustration on X about how her figure faces constant criticism, while the global icon doesn’t receive the same treatment.
- Online reactions were mixed, with some pointing to Rihanna’s recent motherhood as a reason for her body changes, while others criticized Ntsiki’s timing and her frequent online spats.
- Many fans highlighted societal biases in body judgments, drawing parallels to similar trolling faced by Nasty C’s wife, Sammie Heavens.
Let’s talk about this. Ntsiki Mazwai, a South African star known for her boldness and unapologetic attitude, recently made waves by comparing her body to none other than Rihanna. It all started after she was body-shamed on social media. Instead of staying silent, she decided to hit back with a post where she shared a picture of the Diamonds singer and gave her two cents. This isn’t just about two women; it’s about the double standards we see every day in how bodies are judged.
Holding Up a Mirror: Ntsiki Mazwai’s Bold Comparison to Rihanna
Let’s face it—Ntsiki Mazwai is no stranger to online drama. Whether it’s her career, her skin tone, or her body, the internet seems to have an opinion. But this time, she didn’t just take the punches; she threw one back. On her X page, the The Moya Podcast host shared a picture of Rihanna and opened up about something that’s been weighing on her mind.
She pointed out that Rihanna’s boobs look similar to hers, yet the Barbadian superstar never seems to face the same level of abuse. “Her boobs look like mine, but she will never experience the same abuse,” Ntsiki wrote. Now, this isn’t just a random observation—it’s a deeper commentary on how we judge people differently based on who they are, what they’ve achieved, and where they come from.

What the Internet Had to Say
As you can imagine, the internet had plenty to say about Ntsiki’s comparison to Rihanna. Some users were quick to defend Rihanna, pointing out that her recent motherhood might explain any changes in her body. Others, however, stood by Ntsiki, acknowledging the unfairness of the situation.
For instance, @malesamohlala chimed in with, “She’s a mother to a newborn baby (breast-feeding)... wena you are like this for what?” Meanwhile, @Mvuyisi_ asked a valid question: “Do boobs not change shape and size when you have given birth?”
Not everyone was on board with Ntsiki’s approach. @wmacgwenzi shared, “I used to root for you all the time. But aaiii, you love fighting so much. I just gave up 🤣🤣🤣 It doesn’t mean you are wrong, kodwa you don’t choose time and place. That time you are fighting everyone. No one is safe 🙆🙆😂”
@phuti_nkosi added, “You know very well that our people hate their own with passion.” And @ZenzeleKubheka9 simply stated, “She recently gave birth. Wena?”
One user, @getty_pretty, highlighted Rihanna’s motherhood by writing, “But she’s a mother to two!” While @ImmaculateBreed drew attention to another instance of body shaming, saying, “Yesterday, they were busy attacking Sammie Heavens, Nasty C’s wife, for having the same breasts.”
Double Standards and Societal Bias
Why Do We Judge Some Bodies More Than Others?
This whole conversation brings up an important point: why do we hold certain people to higher standards than others? Why does one woman’s body get celebrated while another’s gets torn apart? It’s not just about Ntsiki or Rihanna—it’s about the way society treats women, especially women of color, in the public eye.

Take Sammie Heavens, Nasty C’s wife, for example. She’s faced her fair share of online trolling over her appearance. Why is it that these kinds of attacks seem to follow women who are outspoken or visible? Is it because they challenge the status quo, or is it something deeper? These are questions worth asking.
Ntsiki Mazwai Takes Another Shot at the Late AKA
While the body-shaming debate was still buzzing, Ntsiki didn’t miss the chance to stir things up further. In a recent post, she took another dig at the late rapper AKA, continuing a long-running feud. When a fan asked X users to share some of AKA’s famous spoken words, Ntsiki couldn’t resist chiming in with her own thoughts.
Her comment wasn’t exactly glowing, and it reminded everyone that she’s never shy about sharing her opinions—even when it comes to the late Lemonade hitmaker. Whether you agree with her or not, one thing is clear: Ntsiki Mazwai isn’t afraid to speak her mind, no matter who’s listening.
