Grammy Award winner Tyla Seethal has responded to rumours that she snubbed Minister Zizi Kodwa during her hero’s welcome at OR Tambo International Airport on Saturday, 30 March.

However, this seems not to be the case. All this comes after the Water hitmaker was seen in a viral video seemingly snubbing the Minister of Sports, Arts, and Culture recently.
Tyla finally returned to her home soil for the first time since December. Earlier this year, she made history in the United States by becoming the youngest African to ever win a Grammy Award.
