Lusanda Mbane Slammed After Turning Zahara’s Grave Visit Into ‘Photoshoot’

Lusanda Mbane recently stirred up quite the controversy by sharing a photo at Zahara’s grave. She’d gone there to commemorate Zahara’s birthday, which is a lovely gesture, but yoh! The way she chose to do it has left many of us scratching our heads.

A Touch of Insensitivity?

Taking to Instagram Lusanda Mbane captioned her post: “Happy heavenly birthday masithathu wam. You are forever loved and missed”. Lusanda was seen sitting on the tombstone, flashing in a nice poise like she was posing for a magazine cover. Seriously? Like, who does that?

Instead of just paying her respects, the 45-year-old actress made it look like a full-blown photoshoot at a graveyard! South Africans are not here for it. One user even said, “onale bo main character – I never get her!” and honestly, we feel that!

Netizens wasted no time dragging Lusanda for her so-called tribute. Comments flooded in, calling her an attention seeker and asking why she’s even taking selfies at a grave.

One user commented, “she so old for such”, another added, “so we take pics at graveyards now?” Chilling, right? It’s clear that many believe her actions were disrespectful.

One comment hit home: “This is disrespectful, visiting graves should exclusively be for family”. Why post such a personal moment for the world to see? Yhu, Lusanda, what were you thinking? The mention of “clout chasing” is real!

People kept voicing their frustration, with another user saying it doesn’t need to be a trend to visit graves or even take pictures. Can we not just pay our respects and keep it moving? Seems like Lusanda missed that memo!

At the end of the day, our hearts go out to Zahara, whose legacy deserves to be honoured with grace and respect, not through these antics. So, SurgeZirc SA fam, what’s your take? Was Lusanda’s post a sweet tribute or just plain disrespectful? Let us know in the comments!
