Miss South Africa Twitter typo causes a buzz on social media

Was Miss South Africa rigged?

On Tuesday night South African Twitter was an entertainment fest, with Buhle Mkhize going off on Norma Gigaba.

Just as we were picking up our jaws from Buhle Mkhize’s revelations the Miss South Africa Twitter account gave social media something more to talk about.

In what we would consider as an innocent typo, the official Miss South Africa Twitter account mistakenly tweeted a sexual innuendo. 

Instead of tweeting that Miss South Africa, Demi-Leigh Nel-Peters was going to blow us away with her dress at the Glamour SA event held on Tuesday night the Twitter account mentioned that our Miss South Africa would blow everyone at the event.

When Twitter users saw the typo they had a field day with it. 

After realizing the mistake, the tweet was deleted, but little did they know that these Twitter streets are quick and before they knew it the screenshot of the typo was all over Twitter.

Even Bonang Matheba had a bit of fun with the tweet and considering the great number of followers she has, the tweet just went haywire!
