According to Twitter (or X) user @zweli_thixo, Tyrese Seethal is reportedly charging up to R9,000 for a single photo with him. Yes, you read that right. Imagine shelling out that kind of money for a snapshot!
Apparently, Tyrese has become somewhat of a mini-celebrity himself, notably arranging a meet-and-greet event where attendees could see and—perhaps more importantly—snap a photo with Tyla’s Grammy award.
In an amusing turn of events, Tyla herself reacted to these allegations through a meme, throwing a playful but ambiguous light on the situation. Meanwhile, netizens commented on Tyrese’s entrepreneurial spirit with a mixture of admiration and humour.
