Boity Thulo has never been one to hide behind a polished image, and her latest admission proved exactly that. In a video that surfaced on 21 September 2026, the media personality got candid about the limits of her English vocabulary, telling her followers that some people take the language a little too far.
"We understand English, but there are some people who use deep phrases," she said in the clip, adding, "You guys like using hectic words."
Boity said it took some courage to come clean about this particular struggle, but she felt it was time. She explained that despite studying English at school to help her navigate her career, certain terms still manage to catch her off guard. The word "nuance" is apparently chief among them.
She revealed that the admission was prompted by a recent disagreement she had with someone who used the word mid-argument. Rather than pushing through, Boity said she simply gave up. "What else am I going to say? You win," she told her followers.

"Nuance could mean anything, and I don't know what it is."
She wrapped up the video by putting the question to her audience, asking them to explain the word's meaning since she hadn't yet sat down to look it up herself.

Mzansi links Boity Thulo to Cassper Nyovest
The clip quickly spread across social media, and it didn't take long before Boity's ex-boyfriend Cassper Nyovest entered the conversation. Cassper has long been open about leaving school before completing his matric to focus on his music career, a fact that critics frequently use against him online. Boity, though a matric graduate herself, was forced to leave university when her family could no longer cover the tuition fees.
Mzansi saw the parallel and ran with it, with several users suggesting the two were perfectly matched all along.
