Julius Malema’s face photoshopped on Lerato Kganyago’s True Love cover

SOUTH AFRICA – In the midst of a social media storm over Lerato Kganyago’s True Love cover some social media users thought it funny to take the mickey out of the situation, by photoshopping EFF leader Julius Malema’s head onto her body.

Hundreds of Twitter users took to the site on Monday to complain about Lerato Kganyago’s latest cover, saying that it had been photoshopped to the point where she was unrecognisable.

As messages of support from both fans and celebs, flooded in for Lerato, some decided to produce their own touched up cover replacing Lerato’s head with Julius Malema’s.

“Nick Boulton is one the most amazing photographers in the country. He captured me beautifully, it must be disheartening even for him to have his work continuously retouched (PhotoShopped) to a point of no recognition. I had an amazing shoot though and the article beautifully captured @phila.tyekana”Great article, had a lot to share, and that’s all that matters! Get your copy now!!! ❤️

Even Lerato saw the funny side of the cover, posting a picture of the meme on her Instagram account.

“You guys are going to hell, no short cuts! Love my brother Julius to death, but not on my body! This country must shut down! Slay Queen Julius Slay!,” she wrote. TMG Entertainment
