These men are the latest heartthrobs of South Africa. They are attractive and talented and have every quality that an alpha man should have. But if we use a little help of Photoshop and see how they would look if we turned them into females, we will know if we can be alpha women too.
Since it’s Women’s Month and we live in a diverse country, we thought it would be great to recreate some of these memories from last year when our local male celebs were enhanced to make them look feminine.
The likes of A-Reece, Cassper Nyovest, Emtee, DJ Maphorisa, AKA, Riky Rick and many others had the female version of their faces and it cracked lots of ribs.
L-Tido and AKA saw the photos and poked fun as themselves. Knowing the issue between Supa Mega and Cassper, AKA picked out Cass’ photo and mocked him, calling him “Mama Jack”.

THIS HERE IS NOT PHOTOSHOP, IT’S SIVANNA
Drag is all together another conversation. While it’s typically and historically an art practiced mostly by queer persons, many are in favour of drag becoming a more generally practised art form even outside of the LGBTQ+ community. Yet, with that being said, there’s something very discomforting about the fact that Siv Ngesi’s drag persona is one of the latest seeded influencers of adidas SA’s ICY PARK campaign. Sivanna – the actor’s persona – showcasing the collection, despite only having been a drag queen in existence for a little over a month. Ngesi argues that as someone in a close business relationship with Adidas, they sent him clothes for both himself and Sivanna. Prominent local drag queen Manilla von Teez argues in his defence that he is a great supporter of the workers in the industry and an ally to the queer community at large. With that being said, we could give him the benefit of the doubt that this was not an ill intended act.
