Award-winning singer Makhadzi usually gets praised for putting on a show whenever she hits the stage. Her recent performance in Limpopo was no different, however, it was that particular video clip which had netizens poking fun at her.
The Matorokisi hitmaker pulled a stunt where she zip-lined her way to the stage while singing one of her hit songs. She then stops halfway to the stage and starts to wiggle her arms and legs, as though sending a signal to the crew that she is stuck.

Royal Heritage Festival organisers set the record straight
In an exclusive to Briefly News, the Royal Heritage Festival organisers have debunked claims that Makhadzi got stuck mid-air during her performance.
They stated that everything depicted in the video was part of her performance. When asked if Makhadzi did get stuck, they responded:
"No. There’s no such thing."
They continued by saying that Makhadzi rehearsed with the company Flying Man and had timed her moves to fit in with the song Movie.
"Flying Man, the company who operated her entrance rehearsed with her. Her movement was timed for her song “Movie” All part of her performance."
The organisers added that had Makhadzi been stuck, she would not have posted the video of her performance on her Instagram page.
"Makhadzi posted a video of her entrance on her IG page. I don’t think she would post about something where she was stuck in. Her entrance was operated by Flying Man Company, which is the best in the country with zero glitches, so I don’t think issues would start with our show. They also did Pabi Cooper’s show, amongst many other movie stunts etc.
"I think it’s safe to say that she enjoyed her performance and the platform provided to her."
