Despite denying the romance rumours between her and DJ Maphorisa countless times, Thuli phongolo still gets linked to the Amapiano star. She got spoiled with a bouquet of red roses and many of her followers immediately thought of DJ Maphorisa.
Thuli Phongolo got spoiled this past week as she celebrated her birthday. The celebrations continued on to the weekend and she got presented with gifts throughout.
On Sunday, she got spoiled with the most common gesture of love, a bouquet of stunning red roses. She shared the flowers on her social media and as expected, fans speculated that Maphorisa has something to do with it.
Responding to a curious fan, Thuli gave a very cryptic one as it did not reveal much about whether or not she and Phori are an item.
Fans wanted to know whether it was Phori who sent her the flowers. One said, "Maphorisa wa bereka Shem," which translates to "Maphorisa works overtime shame." Thuli laughed and told the fan, "don’t bore me!"
Another said, "And it's his love language flowers! I love it for you. It has that gangster feel type of love," to which Thuli responded and asked, "b*tch! WHO?"
For Thuli, the best birthday present was the hard work and dedication she put in throughout. She thanked every person who played a role in her continued success.
"The best birthday gift I gave to myself was to make myself proud! I’m so proud of the woman I am and the effort I constantly put in to be better and do better! I love me! Thank you GOD, my family, my friends and my team for everything!"
When videos of them went viral, people were adamant that they are an item but soon afterwards, a snap of her and JazziQ went viral and people thought that the two of them are dating. Videos of Maphorisa "visibly hurt" soon trending making people think that he was heartbroken about Thuli.
In an interview with The Journalist DJ on his YouTube channel, JazziQ debunked the rumours and said “This past week I posted a picture with Thuli P and like it was going crazy you know? Now there is a story about me having beef with Phori (DJ Maphorisa) like no one has time for beef bro. It was just a picture and me and Thuli are just mates,” he told the Journalist DJ.
DJ Maphorisa is dealing with some problems of his own as he and Mlindo Da Vocalist have mended their working relationship. This weekend he exposed the singer and told the story of how he was backstabbed by him.
"It’s so crazy how people will backstab you," started off Maphorisa. "I had to get him (Mlindo Da Vocalist) a road manager, cool I asked Nyiko to help Mlindo. At that time Nyiko was super broke but cool hard working guy so I gave him a chance not knowing [he was] the devil.
"Contractually he is still my artist, I still love him, he is my boy we all make mistakes and yes we gonna make the next project. But what hurts me most is that you give people food and they sh*t on you with the same food you gave them," he vented.
"I'm not mad because I have built a big room for disappointment, I have seen people come and go in my life a lot. Loyalty is key guys, it unlocks especially the ones who do the most for you, don't bewitch them," he advised.
