The social media streets can be very brutal sometimes Yoh!. Just when we are trying to re-group and take a deep breath after #SomhaleWhiteWedding yesterday which caused some havoc. Twitter is lit again today.
This follows after Radio star and entrepreneur Tbo Touch jetted off to the Los Angeles in the United States and during his stay decided to pay tribute to Legendary NBA player Kobe Bryant at his memorial which was held at the Staples Center.

But this left many in stitches. Tweeps have been roasting the star for flying off to the states to pay his respect to Kobe Bryant.
Some even said he should have been stopped because he said he represents South Africa.

But some have defended him and said he loved and respected the legends and besides he flew with his own money.
