“In life they always say inyanga ayikwazi ukuzilapha (a traditional healer cant heal himself).
“Basically, they say if you are a fashion designer you dress k**k. If you are a make-up artist you look ratchet, if you are a hairstylist you look scruffy and here is the testament, here’s my team.”
“This is my glam squad that made this possible but this would not be possible without money. You have to pay to look like this. Nobody is born ugly, you are just born poor,” says Somizi in the video.
