Gogo Maweni, the vibrant and unapologetic sangoma and reality TV star, is once again proving that supporting fellow celebrities doesn’t have to be loud—it can simply be stylish. The bold media personality recently took to social media to share her latest fashion moment, stepping out in a chic and vibrant tracksuit from Somizi Mhlongo’s ever-growing fashion label, Sompire.
Dressed head-to-toe in the eye-catching outfit, Maweni captioned her Instagram post with, “Out here having a Sompire day ,” showcasing both her love for local brands and her support for the multi-talented entertainer Somizi.
A Fashionable Nod to Somizi
The post didn’t go unnoticed. Somizi Mhlongo, known for his flair in both the entertainment and fashion worlds, responded with visible excitement and appreciation. The TV star and entrepreneur has been working diligently to grow Sompire, and seeing a fellow celebrity of Maweni’s caliber embrace his designs was clearly a proud moment.
Somizi reshared Maweni’s post and responded with heart emojis and thanks—proof that even in the fast-paced world of celebrity life, moments of mutual admiration still mean something.
Fellow Celebs Show Love
The admiration didn’t end there. Inno Morolong, another media personality known for her bold presence, also took to social media to shower Maweni with praise. In a comment under the post, Inno applauded Maweni for her constant support of local creatives, writing, “You always show up and stand out. We see you!”
This support from other celebrities fueled an outpouring of positivity in the comments section. Fans of both Maweni and Somizi flooded the post with heart emojis, compliments on the outfit, and messages celebrating unity in the South African entertainment scene.
A Consistent Supporter of Local Talent
This isn’t the first time Gogo Maweni has turned heads with her fashion choices or used her platform to uplift others. The star is known not only for her mystical persona and spiritual influence but also for her vibrant fashion sense, which she often uses to highlight up-and-coming designers or local brands. Her endorsement of Sompire is another example of her deep commitment to building and celebrating community in the industry.
By supporting Somizi’s brand so publicly, Maweni sends a powerful message: local stars can and should support each other—and doing so can be fun, fabulous, and fashion-forward.
The Rise of Sompire
Somizi’s Sompire fashion line has had a unique evolution. Initially launched as a kidswear brand, Sompire quickly grew beyond its niche beginnings. Today, it’s a full-fledged lifestyle brand, offering bold, inclusive, and stylish pieces that reflect Somizi’s own larger-than-life personality.
The brand has been embraced by a host of South African celebrities, including DJ Zinhle, Nonku Williams, and now, Gogo Maweni. Its growth highlights not only Somizi’s business acumen but also a growing appetite among South Africans for homegrown fashion that doesn’t compromise on quality or flair.
More Than Just Clothes
For both Maweni and Somizi, the Sompire moment was about more than just fashion—it was about solidarity. In an industry often marked by competition, public feuds, and clout chasing, it’s refreshing to see celebrities come together simply to support and uplift each other.
Gogo Maweni continues to live out her philosophy of authenticity and boldness, and with her recent fashion statement, she’s reminded her fans that showing up for each other can be as simple as putting on a tracksuit and wearing it with pride.
