Mzansi bursts Mama Joy's bubble

Netizens were not impressed by this, and many continued to spew hate under her post. Some reminded her of Gayton McKenzie's plans to close taps on superfans.

"I have stopped all trips for super fans. We have athletes & artists who are struggling to raise money to attend sporting events and exhibitions. How do we justify paying for fans? We shall no longer be paying for these trips and will use that money where it’s most needed."
