Kelly Khumalo clapped in response to a video showing a group of students singing hateful slurs at her. The singer reacted and responded in a very cheeky manner, saying that these children’s futures are being destroyed.
The video shows a group of young children singing some derogatory and hateful words about Kelly Khumalo. The kids are singing in unison about how much they despise the reality star and how she is a wh*re from Johannesburg.
It begins with a boy child reciting what appears to be a Zulu song, with the others joining in. Following that, another girl child leads the rest of the children in singing some derogatory lyrics about Kelly.
The words translate to, “I hate Kelly Khumalo, she is a wh*re from Johannesburg,” and the rest is inaudible.
While some found this amusing, many called the kids and the teacher out, assuming she or he was the one recording them. In addition to the parents.
Kelly Khumalo clapped back at the children as well, but she mostly targeted their parents and the education system. She stated, “Nithi niqeda Mina kanti niqeda Ikusasa lezingane zenu. Ezami izingane. Klibhi.” This translates to, “Y’all think y’all are trying to finish me, but you are actually destroying the future of your children. Look at my kids,” she wrote showing off her daughter Thingo who is reading a book.
Her video received much praise from her followers who also disagreed with the hateful video.
Kelly has always been vocal about how social media is not a nice place, “Aah Mfundisi this app was not built for such, there’s lots of brokenness and bitterness, these streets are run by the enemy himself. The best way is to detach and vibrate higher,” she said responding to a post.
Ntsiki also slammed the people who taught the kids that.
Reacting to the video, her manager Kelly’s manager Kgothatso Tsotetsi told Daily Sun that the issue here is with the department of education and has nothing to do with Kelly Khumalo.
“This is nothing to do with Kelly Khumalo, but an educational issue. It shows the level of maturity that teachers invent to these kids. I’m sure even their parents are not aware that these kids are uttering such words in class. The department is the problem here.”
The department also weighed in on the video and said they are disappointed and will look into it, “It is indeed disappointing. The details are yet to be established and the matter is under investigation.” – ZAlebs
