Mzansi reacts to Lasizwe allegedly being dumped by DStv
In similar Podcast and DSTV news, Briefly News reported that Mzansi erupted with reactions after trailblazing YouTuber Lasizwe Dambuza was allegedly dumped DStv months after signing a content deal for his popular Awkward Dates series to air on Mzansi Magic.
This made Dambuza the second content creator out of the eight who partnered with MultiChoice, to leave the broadcaster after Macgyver ‘MacG’ Mukwevho was dropped for his nasty comments about media personality Minnie Dlamini on Podcast and Chill.
It is unclear who pulled the plug first between Lasizwe and MultiChoice. According to a report by City Press, one source claims the Awkward Dates host chose to leave citing his mental health. Another source claims MultiChoice decided to end their partnership with Lasizwe after some past guests demanded to be paid. Regardless of who you ask, the matter boils down to money.
On Monday 30 June 2025, City Press took to X and broke the news that Lasizwe and MultiChoice had severed ties. The post was captioned:
"Controversy forces Lasizwe Dambuza and MultiChoice to split and take Awkward Dates off air.”
