However, loyal Rhythm City viewers have come to Mabaso’s defence, highlighting the versatility of his acting skills and the dedication he brings to each role. They argue that his ability to embody different characters is a testament to his talent.

Comparisons were drawn to American actors who undergo similar transformations, with fans pointing out that in South Africa, such changes are often met with skepticism, while in Hollywood, they are celebrated as a sign of an actor’s range and commitment to their craft.

Mabaso’s fans were quick to remind everyone that his appearance in Queendom is simply a reflection of his new character and should not be mistaken for any personal issues he may be facing.

They praised his performance as Mgedeza on DiepCity, where he also underwent a dramatic physical transformation for a prison storyline.
