#Boityreactions that made us laugh

Boity Thulo appearing in Marie Claire's 'Naked Issue' has given the internet plenty of material to produce a variety of amusing memes, videos and even spoof-ads. Here are some of our favourites.


The actress and TV presenter created a stir on Monday after she tweeted a nude photo of herself alongside radio DJs Catherine Grenfell and Zama Dube.

In the annual Naked Edition 36 celebrities bared skin to aid The Lunchbox Fund, a non-profit organisation dedicated to providing a daily meal for orphaned or vulnerable school children in disadvantaged areas around South Africa. Thulo said that far beyond the opportunity to be featured in the naked edition, she was honoured to be helping others through creating awareness.

#BoityReaction trended locally – and even internationally – after news of the edition spread. Here are just some of the funny #BoityReactions we stumbled across.

Another Nando’s spoof…or is it?

You’d be forgiven for thinking this was another spoof from SA’s cheeky chicken brand but Kagiso Digital’s Multimedia designer, Zole Moloi decided to beat them to it with a spoof of a Nando’s spoof about the #BoityReaction. Still not convinced? Take a closer look at the logo at the bottom of the ad.
