Thembi Seete reacts to Zee Nxumalo’s snub
Thembi Seete has sparked buzz online with a subtle clapback after allegedly being snubbed by Zee Nxumalo and Cici at a recent event.
Although the Boom Shaka star hasn’t publicly addressed the incident, she posted a telling TikTok skit alongside content creator Lebo G Molax, and social media users are convinced it was a subtle but pointed response to the drama.
In the clip, Lebo taps Thembi on the shoulder, only for her to glance at him from head to toe and continue posing.
She then taps him back, appearing to question why he approached her in the first place.
The moment ends with both giving each other exaggerated once-overs, a clear recreation of the now-viral cold shoulder moment that sparked online backlash.
Captioned, “Action speaks louder than words🤫 how we talk when we don’t talk ❤️”, the skit had fans reading between the lines, suggesting Thembi was addressing the perceived disrespect without uttering a single word.
Zee Nxumalo and Cici both responded to the backlash on their respective social media platforms, but it’s Thembi’s silent statement that has people talking, and rallying behind her.
In the comments, supporters praised the iconic entertainer not only for her composure but also for her age-defying looks and enduring relevance in the industry.
One fan wrote, “Zee Nxumalo and Cici don’t stand a chance, they’re just wannabes 🤣” while another gushed, “South Africa loves you, Thembi. Don’t ever doubt that. Stay beautiful and humble, Sisi 🥰🥰.”
More reactions poured in, with one user declaring, “Our legend, our elegant queen, our Boom Shaka. We love you and we will always have your back, we won’t stand anybody disrespecting you ❤️❤️❤️.”
Another added, “To think a wannabe celeb was in her presence and decided to act like a diva 😩 We won’t forget.”
