Since Thembinkosi Lorch left our girl she has never been the same shame! And now Natasha Thahane has forgotten her ‘classy lady’ image and dared to tackle the dance floor. Her unexpected dance clip, which recently hit social media platform X, has left many South Africans cringing.
Posted by @mlu__n7 with the caption, “that nazoooooooooke and get down. Natasha Thahane, I wasn’t familiar with your a-game,” this video showcases Natasha’s MC duties but also some rather unremarkable dance moves.

The internet is not known for its patience, and netizens were quick to criticize Natasha’s so-called dance energy. From remarks like “private school girls tryna fit in the hood” to blunt statements such as “she is such a classy woman to be doing this,” the sentiment was clear: this wasn’t the Natasha they knew and loved.
Sadly, her attempt at dancing to Sista Bettina, a song often dubbed the ‘real’ South African national anthem, was met largely with disapproval.
Critics argue that Natasha Thahane, known for her poised and sophisticated aura, fell short trying to embrace a more casual, ‘hood’ persona.

Users like @mnfanomnyama attributed the change to her football player acquaintances, while others lamented the image shift from a polished actress to someone straining to keep up with more relatable trends. @merc_05 commented, “i cringed watching her. she is such a classy woman to be doing this.”
Given SA’s current climate, where even personalities like Pearl Thusi are diversifying their careers by DJ-ing, Natasha’s dance video might not be the most shocking act. But still, one must wonder if this is what we should expect from our so-called ‘classy’ celebs going forward. As @xtrapolitics put it: “she has to graaph. cyril’s economy is tough on everyone.” Let’s hope Natasha finds a better way to cope with the pressures of celebrity life.
