Zandie Khumalo-Gumede Shuns Talks of Netflix’s R22M Deal

South African singer Zandie Khumalo responds to Netflix deal allegations.

The commotion began when Twitter user Joy Zelda tweeted that the Khumalo sisters landed an R22 Million deal with Netflix. The contract was for them to produce a docu-series about the night of Senzwo Meyiwa’s murder.

“Kelly Kumalo and Zandile Khumalo Gumede have signed a R22 million deal with Netflix to produce a docu-series about the events that took place in the house the day Senzo Meyiwa was Killed,” reads the tweet.

This news simply caused an uproar amongst Mzansis as they clearly stated the news didn’t sit well with them.

“Khumalo sisters are fraud, money comes first not truth ……we’ve been waiting 9years for Truth but in 9dsys they can remember and confess to Netflix?? NETFLIX WILL LOSSE SUBSCRIBERS THIS WAY coz the sisters will be biased and they will lie more about dilutional Robbery,” a tweep wrote.

Some netizens even went as far as canceling their Netflix subscriptions to show their grievances.

Late on Sunday, Zandie Khumalo released a statement to dismiss the allegations.

Kelly Khumalo vs Cancel Culture

Before these allegations made it out to the public, Zandie and her sister Kelly faced the cancel culture. The court allegedly found out that Kelly had conversations with one of the suspects in the murder trial Senzo Meyiwa.

The court is yet to sue the singer. However, people have speculated she has something to do with her ex-lover’s death.
