Mamkhize: The queen of New York

Shawun ‘Mamkhize’ Mkhize is a super proud mom after Andile Mpisane appeared on a billboard in Times Square, New York.


Shauwn ‘Mamkhize’ Mkhize is one proud mother, and the businesswoman has taken full advantage of her trip to New York recently accompanying her son Andile Mpsiane for his opening act of The Street Tour in America.

Andile’s set appearance even bagged him a Times Square billboard, as part of the promotion of the concert.

Andile was scheduled to perform on 21 February and his solo act went without a hitch.

He posted a roundup video of the show and a glimpse of his performance, adding that he is prepared to do the tour once again in April.

He is currently promoting his latest single Ubala, which he performed in the US for the first time. The Royal AM chairperson says the track will be “coming out soon”.

Mamkhize was proud of Andile and the Times Square billboard, and as always the fashionista had the perfect outfit to capture the special moment.

“I’m truly at a loss for words. Seeing my prince @andilempisane10 on a billboard in Times Square has been the highlight of this trip.

“I made sure I rocked my black and orange to support him. This trip has certainly brought us closer together. Witnessing him spread his wings and fly has been a beautiful moment. I’ll forever cherish these memories, they are entrenched in my heart.”

This video is no longer available.

The reality star and controversial celeb posted pictures of herself in an over-the-top carriage with purple finishings and just like a royal, her hand wave fitted the decorum.
