Meanwhile, others bashed Shimmy's weight loss and wondered if he had also gone the cosmetic route like some of our favourite stars:

MkhJabu60773 asked:

"Is Shimza on that O??? He lost so much weight."

zizo_brn said:

"Lol! He shouldn’t have lost that weight, now he looks like a 20-year-old."

g_mapaya wasn't convinced:

"These are not the gym results. Shimza took something strong."

MahlatsiMok2 was curious:

"Kanti, did Shimza also get a BBL?"

Azania_Da6th was shocked:

"How is Rema bigger than Shimza? Rema was just a kid moments ago."

"Shimza, this weight loss ain't it, shame."

PreciousShange posted:

"Shimza's neck is longer than a giraffe's neck. What happened? Is he not eating? No more ANC tenders in the GNU?"

Uncle Waffles hangs out with Pharrell Williams

In an earlier report, Briefly News shared online reactions to Uncle Waffles' video with Pharrell Williams at the Louis Vuitton fashion show for the men's Spring-Summer 2026 collection.

While fans praised Waffles' star power, some social media users weren't too convinced that her video was not AI-generated:

harajukusyye asked:

"Why does Pharrell look like he was typed up into existence?"
