A true performer puts their all into their craft, and that is exactly what the late singer Zahara did in her last performance.
A video uploaded on social media by Zahara’s friend and media contributor, Asandiswa Mhlauli, showing the multi-award-winning artist wiping away her tears during her final performance has gone viral, touching the hearts of many.
Asandiswa wrote the following:
“I had an opportunity to witness your last performance and it was so different, so emotional and so heavy. I cried my heart out – you told me you were not feeling too well and we rushed to the hotel. We cancelled the plans for the rest of the evening because you wanted to take a nap. I will always love you @ZaharaSA.”
