Nevertheless, leading up to the recently concluded elections, a number of well-known personalities made appearances at rallies, openly showing their support for their respective political parties. Nevertheless, celebrity endorsements have quickly become a worldwide standard.
In the days leading up to the elections, LootLove made quite a splash in the headlines by throwing her support behind the ANC at their final rally, Siyanqoba, held at the Soccer City in Johannesburg. Reports indicate that the party swiftly removed the post from certain social media platforms following a wave of criticism.
According to The South African, the ANC posted, “Award-winning TV and Radio broadcaster LootLove endorses the ANC and encourages people to #VoteANC2024.” The ANC posted LootLove’s endorsement, which received backlash from several politicians, including Mmusi Maimane.
In a clever twist, the president of X Build One South Africa took to social media to point out that LootLove has endorsed a party that seems to have a fondness for looting.During her endorsement speech, LootLove cleverly encouraged her supporters to exercise their rights and make the right choice at the polls. Metro FM has not officially confirmed the news, but it seems that DJ Lamiez Holworthy and LootLove have garnered some support from Mzansi.
