Lasizwe is shutting down the internet's assumptions, but fans are not buying it. After a clip from his latest Awkward Dates episode went viral, the content creator found himself at the centre of a very convincing love story - one he flatly denies.

Actor Vuyo Biyela, best known for playing Kwenzo in Sibongile & The Dlaminis, joined Lasizwe on the show on 6 August 2026, and the episode quickly took on a life of its own online.

"Not Lasizwe catching feelings on an awkward date."
The footage shows Biyela leaning close to Lasizwe, whispering in his ear and turning on the charm while the content creator attempts to hold his ground with a signature attitude.
At one point, Biyela holds a glass up for Lasizwe to sip from, quietly working on convincing him of his intentions. Throughout it all, Lasizwe sat with his arms crossed, head slightly bowed, and a tell-tale blush giving him away entirely.
The KwaBaba star even dropped what could be the smoothest line of the episode: "Don't give our enemies the satisfaction; it's exactly what they want. They want us to be angry with each other."

Despite the undeniable on-screen energy, Lasizwe was quick to dismiss the fan theories. He pointed out that he is himself a Zulu man and therefore fully equipped to resist the so-called legendary Zulu charm Biyela was deploying.
"What feelings? I am a ZULU man. Ngiyindoda."
While Lasizwe is known for bringing playful flirting energy to every guest on *Awkward Dates*, regardless of gender, viewers felt this episode had a different kind of electricity to it.
