"I need the celebs to open their pockets, 'cause there's always someone who can actually do this right when you provide the correct budget."

"I need designers to normalise saying, 'I cannot do that; it’s not in my skill set.'"

"It’s giving Temu vibes."

DrSonkeAfrica taunted Minnie:

"Copy Cat wanted to be Doja Cat."

"I really hate South African designers."

"She might as well wear a Bafana Bafana jersey. Her designer missed the whole point."

"But this girl was hosting the SAMAs at a low budget. All her outfits were pap and too forced with low-quality."
