South African singer Kelly Khumalo has spoken out about her spiritual beliefs and addressed misunderstandings around her being a sangoma.
In a recent interview, Khumalo explained that spirituality is an important part of her life, but she said people often confuse her spiritual practices with assumptions about being a traditional healer. She clarified that her spirituality is personal and not defined by stereotypes or misconceptions.
Khumalo said she respects cultural traditions but wants people to understand that being spiritual does not automatically make someone a sangoma.
She emphasised that each person’s spiritual journey is unique and should not be judged based on labels.
She also spoke about how rumours and misconceptions can affect people emotionally and professionally, especially public figures.
