From The Twittersphere – Namibian
‘IDOLS SA’ is over. A record 140 million votes were cast. The youngest top 10 contender won: 17-year-old Yanga Sebetwa. The fan wars are tapering out… Nothing like starting the week on a high note!
#IdolsSA
@Ndinear: Well deserved win for Yanga. She has been consistent and the biggest improvement.
@Iam_Kardas: Congratulations to Yanga! This is the most deserving winner ever.
@Onhwa86: The goosebumps I get whenever #Yanga performs I have never experienced before…
@AuntyBae1: Literally heartbroken! Thank you, @ThatoMakape, for a wonderful showdown! The gods have ordained your journey. It’s straight to the top from here on! Best of luck!
@RaletMaN: IdolsSA is not jika majika… it’s either you sing or you jump.
@OfficialBongile: Yanga’s rendition of ‘Not Yet Uhuru’ better be on her debut album.
@MoPhat_ : “Perfection is overrated, passion speaks to the soul…” – Yanga
@_Hybreed_: Next week, ‘Date My Family’…
You Know!
@IamCatchvibe: The smell of KFC when you are broke and when you have money is not the same. Or is it just me?
Political Takes
@nombonisogasa: South Africa, alive with possibilities. A politician bankrupts a province with corruption. And then fashions himself as an anti-corruption crusader.
@EWAEmily: Rake America Great Again.
Overheard
@RawStory: ‘God will not bless America’: Texas pastor curses nation after ‘Godless’ Democrats win midterms. <<< RT @rezaaslan: Next thing you know we will have presidents f*cking porn stars and locking children in cages!
@Annely98: Children wake up so early, then they make a noise for us to wake up too. <<< RT @ShayelaNepando: We call them ‘house alarms’.
@2leepurplefairy: Wuuu, this mboga is so delicious. <<< RT @crazynellz: Fax!
@Brrittneyy_: What’s your best dating advice? <<< RT @NthabiWabi: Stay at home, bruh.
Passing Shots
@ktbonz: My cousin met her husband five years ago on Tinder and is now married with kids but she still has him in her phone as ‘Tom Tinder’.
@HTuuda: Where’s your boyfriend who tracks your period cycle? Can he also track your Aweh and come through, please?
@danielmarven: I wonder how atheists moan during sex? They be like “oh scientific method”…
