Zahara can't seem to catch a break on these Twitter streets as trolls bring up her alcohol abuse allegations. The musician always faces these rumours yearly even after an innocent video of her having fun, goes viral.
MacG asked her about a video of her singing with a group of men and she said she only had 1 bottle of wine, and it knocked her out, that's it. She then realised that she had to stop drinking alcohol that night as she was too drunk. Mac G then told her that she must not leave him behind because he loves alcohol, but Zahara who started drinking alcohol at the age of 24 said, "Don't involve me, it doesn't work for me. Only God works for me."
The reason for drinking alcohol was because of stress but she has no regrets, "Whoever robbed me, and how many mistakes I made and everything, I don't regret the kindof young woman I am now, it has grown on me and today I know which steps to take or not. It does not mean I am not going to have challenges, I am still going to have problems," she said.
"I did not turn to alcohol, you guys turned me to alcohol. Let me tell you something, you don't even have a picture of me in the club with a glass [in my hand]. They always say 'sources say' so I want to ask who is that source." she said. "What I do in my house, it's not your business...your business is my music. Don't talk about alcohol if I want to drink champagne I will drink it today if I want, it's not your business."
DJ Sbu threw Zahara under the bus and revealed that she developed a liver problem as a result of her alleged drinking problem, "When I met her [Zahara] she was an up and coming artist, nobody knew her. She remembers those two Christmases when nobody was by her side whereby the second time...she was going through the most, nobody was there for her.
"She was in hospital, she was going through a liver problem and the doctors said she was drinking alcohol. These are the things I have been quiet about, I don't wanna share, don't want to speak about because it puts her in a bad light. But I have to say them because these things that are being perpetuated [against me] it's unfair," he cries.
