Situations and Opinions are parallel partners

Artist are humans just like me and you. But we always want to judge them and some how expect them not to do mistakes. However, we are at times cornered to do so. We recently read about Jub Jub's recent accident where school children died. This was an unfortunate event for most fans, friends and families of the children that died. We are still shocked and forced to have a voice around this situation.

 Ntombi Khumalo Dlomo)

There is no better excuse to the pain he cause to the families of the children. However, I believe that it is a curve of his life. It meant to happen and for him to learn and change for good though it is up to him. 

The misuse of social media

No one deserves cyber bullying. On 16 Sep 2011 Zenoyise Madikwa reported that there are three people who opened a Facebook account using Sonia Sedibe's name. Sonia Sedibe the former actor in generations known as Ntombi Khumalo Dlomo says that she has never opened a Facebook account in her life read more

The article reads that those people are swearing at their friends on Facebook. She said that she has hired a private investagator to get to the bottom of this. I think Sonia value her image and the relationship that she has built with the public as she took an action to save her reputation as she said that this people just have a goal to damage her reputation.

She is not the only one who is experiencing this. Some celebritues include stars like Wright Ngubeni, Minnie Dlamini and Thabiso Mokhethi.

Do we really want to see them being bad to us or what do we really want from them? Earn your view to be heard.

THEY ARE ALSO INVOLVED IN COMMUNITY ACTIVITIES

Artists always remember where they come from. They always make time to address social issues through their foundations. Celebrities are involved in projects such a bushfire which are bringing musicians together around the globe (read more) and in a campaign to help stop police killings here in South Africa (SA).

They tirelessly give back to the community. Some of these stars entertain and motivated during public events through their talents . They help communities to fight against social challenges. Such efforts are proof enough that they have the public's interests at heart.


On Monday, 01 August 2011 Sowetan newspaper reported that South African actor Sello Maake KaNcube called South Africans to help stop the killing of police officers. (read more). I think we all have to meet the government half by stopping the killing of police men. The country needs their services and cannot afford to loose any of them through killings.
