@royalNonks commented:
"They’re going to cast thee most boring influencers, and no one is going to find love."
@kgotsohopelekau said:
"I need to know the auditions! I am in love with this show."
@Ntsikie_Dlamini responded:
You know when you love something and want to keep it at a safe distance from everyone else? That is how I felt about Love Is Blind, but we are here now."
@mimikesewaa replied:
"This will be so entertaining than the others."
@RandomoneSa mentioned:
"I don't remember auditions being open to the general public, so ordinary people who genuinely want love can try out. Or is it gonna be another heavily produced reality show that casts struggling actors and DJs who are looking for their come-ups?"
@FifiMathekga stated:
"Actually hope they cast people who want to get married and not just influencers to push ratings."
@kletlape tweeted:
"Yoh I would love this...can't wait to watch. No influencers please."
