Anyone who drives in Johannesburg knows traffic lights can come with unexpected encounters, but Lesedi Matsunyane-Ferguson experienced one she probably never saw coming. The actress had social media in stitches after revealing that a phara, a street dweller often seen asking motorists for money or food leaned in and kissed her closed car window after she turned down his request for help. Safe to say, that wasn't on her bingo card for the day.
From asking for food to stealing a kiss
Sharing the hilarious story on TikTok, Lesedi said she was driving home near the corner of Republic Road and Bram Fischer Drive when the man approached her car. Like many people do at robots, he politely asked if she had something to eat or any spare change. The actress explained that she genuinely had nothing to give him. Instead of trying the next car, the man stepped closer, leaned towards her window and planted a kiss right on the glass. Luckily, the window was closed.
The confidence was off the charts
Still trying to figure out what had just happened, Lesedi burst into laughter out of pure shock.

As if the surprise kiss wasn't enough, the man casually asked her once again if she had anything to spare.
She told him, once again, that she didn't. Without missing a beat, he smiled and replied:
"Ay no, it's fine. Next time,"
Before moving on, leaving Lesedi completely gobsmacked.
