Kelly Khumalo unfazed as bodyguard kicks flying can off stage during her show
Kelly Khumalo experienced a dramatic weekend performance as the crowd assaulted her while on stage.
The singer took the stage at the Dundee July event in KwaZulu-Natal, where a video of her performing a popular gospel song with a bodyguard by her side quickly went viral.
The clip captured a tense moment when someone from the crowd hurled a can of alcohol at her mid-performance.
Unshaken, Kelly continued singing while her bodyguard kicked the can back into the crowd, remaining close to her for protection.
Two additional bodyguards could also be seen on stage ensuring her safety throughout the set.

The incident came just days after disbarred advocate Malesela Teffo reignited controversy with explosive claims during an episode of Podcast and Chill.
Teffo alleged that Kelly unintentionally killed her then-boyfriend, footballer Senzo Meyiwa, while attempting to hand him a firearm.
Senzo was fatally shot in October 2014 at the Khumalo family home in Vosloorus.
At the time, Kelly, her sister Zandie, their mother Ntombi, her son Christian, and three of Senzo’s friends were present in the house.
In a direct and unapologetic video shared on social media, Kelly slammed the ongoing narrative and rejected Teffo’s accusations outright.
“Enough is enough. It stops here and it stops today,” she declared.
“I’m not going to be diplomatic about this. I’m not going to release press statements, I’m not going to waste my money hiring lawyers to speak on my behalf.”
Challenging the allegations, she added, “If you strongly believe I am capable of what you are accusing me of, very simple, come and get me. I’m not above the law.”
“The stupid humiliation rituals you have been performing using me over the years, enough. If you feel I am the woman you are coming after, come and get me. I fear no man. Until then, back off,” she added.
