SA reacts to Cyan refusing to take pics with her fans

Shortly after the video of the influencer who gave back to her community went viral on social media, many netizens flooded the comment section with their reactions. Here's what they had to say below:

@Ginmorrison47 said:

"This is hilarious."

@NormaMansoor wrote:

"Let’s not forget who keeps you guys booked? You're letting them down. Sad to see this."

@simplytumeigh commented:

"When they don’t get bookings then they will start crying on social media."

@Reloadedd94 responded:

"Substance abuse is their coping mechanism. Artists are drug addicts 90% of them hide behind liquor and powder to cope."

@uNaledii replied:

"I don’t understand, honestly speaking, how any of this is the fans' problem? You asked them to come, they came and supported you with their own money, they just asked for a picture it got refused because of the venue and riders."

@BhekiBolt mentioned:

"Y’all understand that riders are part of the agreement for an artist to show up, right? You guys like to bash artists each time you get. I would genuinely do the same, honestly."

@OnlyeverydaySA1 stated:

"There is a lot going on, and fighting over alcohol is actually tacky, like what is wrong with them? If it was part of the deal, then yes, but if not, they should just keep pushing. It's probably also helping them to drink less alcohol. But very interesting timing for all this."

@IamPeterMasela tweeted:

"I used to be a photographer for some DJ, and there’s another day she refused to play because she wasn’t given her rider, but was fully paid lol that’s the last day I worked with her."
