Somizi Mhlongo, Skhumba, and J’Something will be the judges of a new TV show, The Masked Singer SA.

Phil Mphela confirmed the names of the stars, “Somizi, Skhumba and J something to be the “judges” … or appropriate lingo for the show … the investigators, on The Masked Singer South Africa,” he wrote.

The show will air on SABC 3.

However, the news garnered mixed feelings as a few lamented on how SA producers adopt international shows, while others talked about how Som keeps securing the bag even at 50.

Reactions be like:

“I knew SA was gonna adopt this show..Love Nick Cannon’s original..As for Somizi everywhere achiiiiii..Ashifa Shabba would me suitable.”

“I’m glad Skhumba has scored himself another gig…after critics made him loose the metro FM breakfast show gig..”

“I really don’t wanna see Somizi on any screen.”

“Somgaga has someone nudes at SABC.”
