Taking to her social media, DJ Zinhle made no secret of her excitement over Brown being in the city, describing the situation as “unbearable.”
“Guys, Christopher has arrived, and I’m not OK,” she posted. “He’s here in Joburg and could literally be staying 20 or 30 minutes away from me, and I won’t be able to see him. I’m honestly not OK.”

Work Commitments Keep Zinhle Away
Unfortunately for Zinhle, her busy schedule meant she wouldn’t be able to attend Brown’s concert.
“I won’t be able to go to his show because I’ll be working,” she lamented. “What will I be if Chris Brown goes back to his country without [me] seeing him?”
Adding to the humor, she jokingly warned her followers not to post about seeing Brown in public if they spotted him outside the concert.
“If anyone sees him outside the concert and posts about him, I’ll block you,” she quipped.
Social Media Reacts
While many fans found her posts endearing and relatable, not everyone was amused. A wave of criticism emerged, with some social media users questioning her enthusiasm for Brown given that she’s a married woman. Critics accused her of crossing boundaries, despite the lighthearted tone of her comments.
