Thuli Phongolo has been mocked for a tweet she posted about the elections on Wednesday, 29 May.
The actress and DJ was grilled over a spelling error in the tweet she has since deleted.
South Africans -including celebrities – took to the polls to cast their votes.
THULI PHONGOLO’S ELECTIONS TWEET FLOPS
In the tweet, Thuli Phongolo posted: “Complementing on taking my mic to the voting station.”
The DJ’s followers were quick to notice that Thuli had used the wrong word – instead of “contemplating,” she had tweeted “complementing.”
Thuli was likely referring to the viral microphone that has taken over social media.
Although Thuli deleted the tweet, a screenshot of it had tweeps amused.
Here’s what a few had to say…
@Domineer_: “The effects of the 30% pass mark.”
@Thapz__: “This gang of BBLs is good for nothing.”
@Sbo19DarkBeauty: “Do they remove your brain cells during surgery in Turkey?”
Despite the cringe moment, Thuli Phongolo – who is dating DJ Maphorisa – laughed at the criticism, which continued on TikTok.
She tweeted: “There’s no comment section as hilarious as TikTok! I mean, who are these people?”
CYAN BOUJEE PLANS TO VOTE NEXT YEAR
Thuli Phongolo isn’t the only female DJ who took an “L” for her laughable social media post about the elections.
Cyan Boujee – who has undergone her third BBL in Turkey – had the public howling at her faux pas.
her Instagram Stories this week, the hitmaker tweeted an advert from Krispy Kreme that was giving away a free donut to anyone who had cast their vote on election day.
Cyan – who was on a liquid diet – posted: “This was the only reason I was going to vote. But one more weeks until I can eat LOL.”.
She hilariously added: “Maybe next year”.
On the X platform, tweeps dragged the 22-year-old for her grammar and lack of knowledge that general elections and voting occur every five years.

According to TshisaLive, Cyan has bragged about getting a gastric sleeve weight loss surgery.
She said: “My goal is 60kg. I know it’s crazy, or at least 65kg, but that is my goal. I don’t want to be around 80kg; I don’t want to be around 90kg. I have tried to lose weight by doing every kind of thing. It didn’t work. I keep gaining.”
