Somizi Mhlongo is excited about being one of the Masked Singer show panelists.
The radio personality will be detectives on the new show alongside, Sithelo Shozi, J’Something, and Skhumba.
Speaking at the press conference for the new show, Somizi reacts to those slamming him for being a “judge” on the new show.
“The first thing when the news goes out, people are going to say ‘Ah Somizi again judging’ and we are not judging, I think they’ll get a pleasant surprise to understand that this is not a singing competition like any other. We are not judges, we are panellists, we are exactly what the audience is, we are just given the voices. But we are exactly what the audience experience,” he said.
Mhlongo says he’s been himself and he isn’t going to change anything.
“I’ve been myself from day one, and I would never change anything for anything or for anyone, so if you are tired of me, then switch. What makes me to be where I am today is my authenticity. I find it very sad for people to always adjust based on where they are. I am not a chameleon. Somizi has always been this, you’ll see Somizi at a different show but he will still be Somizi.”
