Is Zwai Bala homophobic?

Written by Cheesa from the blog Cheesa Chat on 02 Apr 2012
Favourite this post


I read this lil article in DRUM about the drama between Bala Brothers. Apparently the group has broken up, Bala Brothers is no more as a group. Zwai only performs with Loyiso after Phelo left the group because Zwai does not approve of his homosexuality!

Phelo has since left Joburg to live in the Eastern Cape with his family. He had no choice but to leave coz he couldn't afford his rent as he was no longer performing. Apparently he also hung around with much older gay guys with whom he did all sorts of things that left him broke, DRUM reports.

Apparently Zwai knew that Phelo is gay but Phelo was too scared to admit it. Shem it could be because he knew how Zwai would react if he broke it down to him. Loyiso is said to be more supportive of his younger brother.

Hayi uZwai if he kicked Phelo out of the group because of his homosexuality that's very low and so homophobic of him!!! I mean his own brother??? Anyway it doesn’t matter even if it was not his brother.

I mean really, with so many homosexuals in the entertainment industry that he's in, he's still homophobic?! Or homophobia starts showing when homosexuality is close to home??

That's so disappointing of Zwai. Poor lil Phelo but Drum also reports that Lindelani Mkhize has taken him under his wing as part of Joyous 16.

I just hope they solve this matter as a family and wish Phelo all the best with his music career shem I hope he bounces back and pursues his music.

Ja, I expected better from Zwai. He should know better because this may cost him his career especially in a country like SA where people are encouraged to embrace their sexual orientation and do away with all sorts of descrimination.

That's so disappointing of Zwai. Poor lil Phelo but drum also reports that Lindelani Mkhize has taken him under his wing as part of Joyous 16.
Lindelani just redeemed himself here after the sex scandal that hit the group. I give him the props but how will abazlwane react knowing a homo guy is in JC?

I just hope they solve this matter as a family and wishing Phelo all the best with his music career shem I hope he bounces back and pursue his music career.
Ja, they should resolve their issues and kaloku naye uPhelo needs to be responsible and not waste money on older gay guys.

I think Drum may have missed something.. I mean, Phelo is his brother. Maybe Zwai's problem is not the gayness but his lil brother being iresponsible with money and being these older gays' sugar daddies... I think that could be the issue here but any way, until Zwai opens up about the matter, we may never know the real truth.

If Zwai is indeed homophobic, then hai, he needs a serious reality check on life

My thoughts are that Phelo is the most talented of these Bala brothers, it was unfair of Zwai to do that - if he did do it i think he needs to sit down, being homophobic doesn't solve any problem, in fact it creates more, and neither does it boost the economy, he must ask Mugabe...

Lindelani just redeemed himself here after the sex scandal that hit the group. I give him the props but how will abazlwane react knowing a homo guy is in JC?

LOL tru Taz there are alot of Lundis in Joyous so Phelo wont be the first one, I mean really they must be blind if them Joyous people dont see that. 


True Makisto - maybe Zwai's problem is his brother irresponsibility and not his homosexuality. Kana gays are spontaneous one minute they are in one town the next they are flying somewhere etc LOLest maybe it could be that too!! Maybe he was also afraid of de scandals that might come out of him hanging with much older gay boys phela de gay can be wild hey. Maybe that is one of the things Zwai decided ukumtrokha u poor lil Phelo. 

Hayi bo, but Nomakula Roberts (headlines) said "u Phelo uyamithisa nje everwhere" he ipregnanted too many gals, then this gay thing whn did it starts???? hayi wethu qaks kuli was being kuli wayegeza nje.

@impondokazi,
if anyone like Lundi can deny he is gay in the public then ANYONE anywhere can deny it and get away with it, that includes drag queens!
and JC cant fire some members because Bazalwane are unhappy about who they shag...wait, are JC members allowed to have sex before marriage?

Tough love shem. if my lil sister was hanging out with older guys and basicaly s'ferbing, i'd ship her back to the rurals nami.

This gayness is becoming fashionable....or is it coming out that's so rife. Seems the fish in the sea is either gay or married. No hope for us single women.

Ey Tox say that again yoh there are so many gays out there. They are coming out everyday its scary like sizoshada bani bakithi yoh! 7/10 guys are gay! 

Shem I hope the Arthur junior boy aint gay. Wait until you hear gays tell us that he is gay phela they see a member of their family miles away! 

Hayi shem hayikabi but most guys in JC are gay look at those big guys singing there you will def spot them gays.

I also saw something dodgey about this article(situation). Obviously to sell it as "Zwai Hates Gays" would get more attention than how the brother is broke because of his careless behaviour.

Maybe Zwai's problem is not the gayness but his lil brother being iresponsible with money and being these older gays' sugar daddies

And u said it well Maki.

Phelo can't afford rent...?? Didn't he release an album not too long ago... ¯\_(-_-')_/¯.... Or did it flop...?? And why is Zwai mad... They all gay anyway...

02 Apr 2012 21:51

No man. Lets be honest. Drum did not do its homework they just chase the gay thing because it sounds more dramatic that Zwai has an issue because Phelo is gay. There is a bigger story here that this lazy writers left out. Phil Mphela wrote last year about Phelo being out of control. The article was really calling him to order because he was doing things that were really out of hand. Maybe Zwai is homophobic but I dont think that that is the whole story.

03 Apr 2012 08:20

Mpondokazi, I did see KC and Lundi on Selimathunzi that day hayi sana they were so jelling and they are so alike in terms of their personality. I laughed through out their segment. I love them both yazi too much!

Karabo, Phelo did release an album sana but it didnt go anywhere. It just never took off. I only saw people throwing compliments of how Phelo is talented and all not talking about getting his album. 

Shem yazi I saw his video the other day on LIVE I think, the song is about a girl I think, and so ke there is this girl with Phelo in the video. I could see that the boy shem does not know how to act oh so lovingly around a girl. It is just awkward. Shem ooZwai badlalile ngo Phelo! 

Thato, please provide me with the link to the article Phil wrote about Phelo please wethu phela we also wanna read thle. The DRUM article made it seem like Zwai is homophobic coz they said he disapproves of Phelo's homosexuality not his lifestyle. So ke asazi thina until Zwai or anyone else sheds light.

@ Mbulela - its different to ask someone if he is gay or not. 

its because society has not accepted gays. i am still shocked that Lindelina is gay because i couldnt see it myself and the only way to get the correct answer is to ask.

@babye, the issue is how does the answer improve you as a person? I personally have my personal views about same sex relationships but i really do not have an interest discovering the gender of who others sleep with as long as they are not attempting to sleep with me and they are not the person i am sleeping with.

asking is just asking to know. clearly you do ask question just to know.
