In a surprising turn of events, South African reality TV star and DJ, Zinhle, has temporarily shut down her ERA by DJ Zinhle store at Menlyn Mall.
The news was first revealed by the ever-controversial blogger and gossipmonger, Musa Khawula. As expected, this sparked a wildfire of reactions on social media.

DJ Zinhle, already a popular figure for her musical talents and reality TV presence, has once again found herself at the centre of social media buzz.
Her recent comments about the youth being ‘unemployable’ had already stirred the pot, and now the closure of her store has added more fuel to the fire. Fans and critics alike had a lot to say about the store’s ‘temporary’ closure.
The reactions ranged from sympathetic to downright sarcastic. One user, @ori_rsa, noted, “Now she will see that we are all unemployable but in different angles and levels.” Another, @tmnlmnkrl, pointed out, “Plus she talks too much.”
The general consensus seemed to be that the store was perpetually empty, with @oumaliciousm stating, “The store was forever empty, but when we said it, we were asked if we don’t know ‘online shopping’.”

According to DJ Zinhle, the temporary shutdown is because they’re planning to move to a larger store. However, Musa Khawula threw shade on this claim, suggesting that the store wasn’t profitable. “Truth is, ERA by DJ Zinhle as a store isn’t profitable,” he tweeted.
