Johannesburg- It is a mixed bag of emotions in celebville after President Cyril Ramaphosa announced that the country will be placed under alert level 1 lockdown, during his address to the nation on Thursday evening.
The announcement means it’s back to business for most artists.
One would expect celebrities to be happy about this, especially after their industry was hit hard by the harsh lockdown regulations that were in place in the country.
The restrictions directly affected their pockets because the Department of Arts and Culture didn’t show up with the grant that it was supposed to give to them.
Instead, they all have different takes as to why the country has been put on level 1.
