Many were surprised to see the media personality back in action because he had previously been deemed 'cancelled'. To cancel someone means to strip away the perks of being famous from prominent figures who are involved in gender-based violence scandals.
After Somizi was accused of domestic violence by his estranged husband Mohale, tweeps were under the impression that he would receive the exact same treatment as other stars who walked a similar path.
The announcement of the guest list was made by The Entertainment Alert's Phil Mphela. Naming Zozibini Thunsi as the first celeb who will appear on the show joined by Makhadzi, Percy Cheweneyagae, Mihlali Ndamase and Somizi.

Cancelling the celeb was going according to plan when MetroFM, Bathu, and Idols SA shouldered him out but his invitation onto The Braai Show proves otherwise, reports ZALebs.
Tweeps did not hold back on being vocal about their disapproval of Somizi's appearance on the show.

Somizi trends as Mohale spills the tea on his alleged abusive relationship
Briefly News previously reported that Mohale Motaung has come out with some shocking allegations about his marriage to Somizi Mhlongo. Their marriage was not as happy as they would have had people think and Mohale has said that it was quite abusive.
This could explain the sudden distance between the two, who used to be inseparable. Sunday World reported that Mohale alleged that Somizi threatened him with a knife only three weeks after they were married.
The South African reported that the tabloid had used an interview Mohale did with the producers of Somizi's reality show, Living the Dream with Somizi.
