The offensive comment was met with immediate outrage across social media platforms, with users condemning Mac G for what many described as misogynistic and disrespectful behavior.
Moja Love strongly criticized the statement, branding it inappropriate and unacceptable.
ANC MP Khusela Diko also weighed in, calling for more robust regulation of podcasting platforms to prevent the normalization of degrading commentary.
Industry figures didn’t hold back either - Media veteran Penny Lebyane and Dr Monaisa both publicly denounced Mac G and his co-host Sol Phenduka, accusing them of perpetuating harmful narratives that demean women.
While Dlamini did not address the insult directly, she posted on TikTok and X with a clear message about her autonomy, implying she refuses to be defined by relationships or public speculation.
This incident has reignited longstanding criticism of Podcast and Chill, a show that has repeatedly drawn fire for disparaging comments made about several high-profile women, including Amanda du Pont and Nkosazana Daughter.
As calls to cancel the show gain momentum, Mac G has doubled down rather than offering an apology — using his platform to promote his book, Uncancelable, on X, further fueling the controversy.
