Uncle Waffles

This star was the greatest highlight of all. She rise to fame when a video of her her mixing and dancing to Kabza de Small and Young Stunna’s international hit song Adiwele went viral, so much so that even Drake was in awe of her.

Uncle Vinny

Slik Talk

Slik Talk who is a YouTuber got into trouble after he dragged so many celebrities on his show.

From body shaming Kamo Mphela to calling Dj Maphorisa a simp, there are probably at least 5 people in Mzansi who would like to square things with him. Which is why many celebrities were quite excited to see Cassper Nyovest beat the daylights out of him in a boxing match they had recently.

Young Stunna
