ZANDIE to Kelly: “They didn’t know we were sisters.”
Singer and dancer Zandie Khumalo-Gumede reminisce about her days with her sister, Kelly Khumalo.
The musician shared that they used to confuse a lot of people and they didn’t know that they are siblings.
The 29-year-old choreographer said they used to enter the same competition and people wouldn’t even recognise that they are from the same family.
On Saturday, 20 August she said this was during the auditions for the Crux Gospel Star Search.
The singer from Vosloorus, Ekurhuleni, said they had their best days together as they would be in the same finale of the competition. Despite their fallout, Zandie still shared how incredible they used to be and how lovely they’d look when doing something together.

Zandie wrote on Instagram: “One day I will tell you guys my story about how we both entered Crux Gospel Star Search when I was 12 years old. We auditioned in different days and they didn’t know we were sisters until our mother brought us both for the next round the next day at the Crux offices.”
The singer said they even remained in the top five of the competition, with her sister Kelly being on position three of the Crux Gospel Star Search.
“After the whole competition, I became number 5 and she got number 3, basically sehlulwa goes but Je akunalutho anongikhumbuza nginixoxele,” she wrote.
Her post inspired many people and they shared how much they love them as a team, not rivals.
This also touched legendary kwaito artist Arthur Mafokate, and he showed some love to the Khumalos.
Bandy K said they are best friends and soulmates.
“Omg, I love this. Thank you for posting Zandie. While you both are necessary with different paths, but nothing exceeds sisterhood. I miss you both,” Davido Texas said.
Minto said she loves them so dearly.
“My sisters. I love you guys,” Tele Khumalo said.
