DJ Maphorisa cleans his kitchen after some Twitter pressure

Not everybody was convinced that the DJ cleaned his own kitchen, and some had a lot to say about a certain brand of appliances.


DJ Maphorisa and the brand SMEG can’t catch a break. The DJ posted a picture of himself cooking, and Twitter dragged him for his “unclean” kitchen after seeing unwashed dishes.

Maphorisa responded to the haters and posted a picture of his kitchen that was cleaned this time: “Well… Ke tla reng mara.

Tweeps were quick to notice that the picture also featured a certain kitchen appliance brand that they see all too often.

With mixed reactions, some said they were fed up with seeing SMEG on their timelines repeatedly, while others weren’t convinced that the DJ cleaned his own kitchen.


However there was still some SMEG appreciation, it doesn’t help that celebs and social media users are feeding into the free publicity of the much-praised and some say overrated appliance brand.
