Singer and reality TV star Kelly Khumalo did not take loosing kindly the past weekend when she did not scoop a single award out of the two awards she was nominated for at this year’s SAMA’s the past weekend.
The SAMA’s took place at Sunbet Arena, Time Square in Pretoria on Saturday 18th November where artist’s such as Kabza de Smallz, K.O, Morda and Ntokozo Mbambo scored big.
Kelly was nominated with Ntokozo in the Best Female Artist of the Year category, where the gospel singer came out victorious, in turn scooping a total of three awards for the night.

Such pride can be your greatest downfall as an artist. Pride will make you fall and people will forget you even existed. Ntokozo has pipes for days. She’s an icon and her voice speaks for her, she doesn’t have to prove anything with a tweet. Be motivated, not intimidated 💀💀💀
