One of the trending videos right now features none other than Gogo Skhotheni and trust, people can’t stop talking!
Born Tumi Motsoeneng-Shange, Gogo Skhotheni made a name for herself in South Africa as a bold and outspoken sangoma, reality TV star, and businesswoman. From her unique spiritual journey to her controversial lifestyle (yes, including that polyandrous marriage), she has always kept social media buzzing.
But things took a dramatic turn in April 2025.
In a move that shocked many, she publicly announced that she was leaving behind her ancestral practices, describing them as the “dark side,” and embracing Christianity. The transition instantly divided opinions—some applauded her, while others questioned the shift.
Despite stepping away from traditional healing, Gogo Skhotheni made it clear she’s not disappearing anytime soon. She’s still holding on to her brand name and is now stepping into new lanes—hosting prayer sessions, podcasting, and even DJing.
From launching her spiritual product line Dlozi Lami to now preaching biblical teachings, her journey has been nothing short of a complete rebrand.
Love her or question her, one thing is certain Gogo Skhotheni knows how to stay relevan
