Makhadzi’s Former Dancer Rush Mabanana Takes Aim at Her in Viral Instagram Rant
The South African entertainment industry has once again been rocked by drama, and this time, it involves popular Venda star Makhadzi and her former dancer, Rush Mabanana. In a recent Instagram Live session, Rush made some explosive claims that have left fans buzzing. His most shocking statement? “Makhadzi, whatever you started, you are not gonna finish it. Just know that I am working on you, and you gonna suffer.” These harsh words have caused a stir on social media, with many weighing in on the fallout between the two former collaborators.
So, what’s the story behind these accusations? According to Rush, his time with Makhadzi was filled with feelings of underappreciation and unfair treatment. He claimed that despite juggling multiple roles as both a dancer and a driver for Makhadzi, he was paid significantly less than another dancer, Limpopo Boy. This disparity in pay, despite his hard work, left him feeling undervalued. “I worked my butt off while others were making more money,” he lamented, voicing frustration over what he believes was an unfair situation.
But the drama doesn’t stop there. Rush recounted a specific incident that took place during a trip to Botswana, where he claimed he had to take the blame for Makhadzi in a near-arrest situation. Although the details of the incident were not fully revealed, the stress and pressure of the moment were evident in Rush’s recounting. This situation only seemed to deepen the rift between him and the singer. Now, Rush has moved on and is living in Australia, where he continues to dance, conduct tours, and teach. However, it’s clear that the unresolved issues with Makhadzi still weigh heavily on him

Adding more fuel to the fire, Limpopo Boy, who was also mentioned in Rush’s allegations, chimed in during a recent interview on the *Limpopo Podcast*. According to Limpopo Boy, he and Rush are not on good terms, and their rivalry extends beyond just money. Both dancers sport similar uppercut hairstyles with blonde dye, which has led to confusion in the industry. Limpopo Boy even mentioned that some people have used his name to get closer to Makhadzi and secure dance gigs, sparking even more tension between the two.
Unsurprisingly, social media has been ablaze with opinions on Rush’s claims. One user commented, “Where there’s smoke, there’s fire. For everyone involved, I hope they get fairly treated. This guy sounds hurt. May he be compensated for whatever he is owed.” This sentiment echoes the feelings of many who believe that the entertainment industry can be cutthroat and often unfair to the artists behind the scenes.
However, not everyone is sympathetic to Rush’s plight. Another commenter questioned his approach, writing, “But why is he insulting Makhadzi? It says a lot about him.” This perspective highlights the debate over how grievances should be aired, especially in a public forum where personal attacks can damage both parties’ reputations.
As the drama continues to unfold, it serves as a reminder that the entertainment industry is not always as glamorous as it seems. Behind the dazzling performances and catchy tunes are real people with real struggles, and issues like fair compensation and respect can’t be overlooked. For Makhadzi, this situation is a stark reminder of the importance of treating everyone fairly and maintaining professional relationships, especially in an industry where reputation is everything.
For now, fans and observers alike will be watching closely to see how this saga unfolds. Will Rush and Makhadzi resolve their differences, or will the tensions continue to escalate? Only time will tell. Let us know what you think—does Rush have valid claims, or is he simply airing dirty laundry?
