On Friday, 21 November 2025, Musa Khawula shared a video of Pabi in a gym studio, cheerfully doing the cha-cha to the American band Miami Sound Machine's 1985 hit song Conga.

Presumably taken in between a gym session, the former Power FM presenter wore a colourful gym outfit comprising comic-themed tights, a blue crop-top and pink running shoes.

Pabi became the latest victim of a cruel celebrity death hoax in October when rumours about her "passing" began to circulate online—a fate shared by stars like Sophie Ndaba and content creator Mandisi Tshingana. Choosing to disregard the harmful rumour, Pabi is focusing strictly on the positive aspects of her life.

She confidently flaunted her slimmer frame since beginning her weight-loss journey, and has been maintaining her new figure with consistent training.

Speaking to Briefly News, certified personal trainer and fitness expert Mothusi Maepa stated a simple truth: "Consistency breeds results," and despite all the noise surrounding Pabi's incredible weight loss, she is proving that the best response to negative news is to live visibly and joyfully.
