Since then, she continued to have many challenges in life as nothing became easy for her while growing up. Without a mother at such an early age, she learned to stand up for herself very early in life.<\/p>\n<p>Her father, however, was not in the picture, but good enough for her, she had her grandmother, Maureen Ndaba, who would spend years looking after her until she decided to go out, work and make ends meet. More so, she has kept all info about having any siblings personal.<\/p>\n<p>In terms of education, Zodwa failed to pass her 12th grade (matric) exam and has put only a little history out to the public. When she was 16, the controversial dancer left home to start making a life for herself. She stayed with her friend for a while as she continued to hustle her way through. The first job she took was as a bar lady in The Rock, a club that has since shut down.<\/p>\n<p>She continued to push herself until she became widely known for her talent. That however does not stop her from having a life outside of her media personality and dancing jobs.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>She Started Dancing as a Way Out of Poverty<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Zodwa would live life every day as it offered itself to her while growing up. Hunger took its rage on her and made her fight to survive. This fight for survival led her to leave home at the age of 16 to start doing several odd jobs, including dancing. In the midst of these, she landed herself a job at a debt collection company but continued to entertain as a dancer in several clubs in Durban. Fame reached her after pictures and videos of her dance at the Eyadina lounge made waves on social media.<\/p>\n<p>From dancing at clubs in Durban, she earned the \u2018Vosho Queen\u2019 title because of her popular Vosho dance move. She further had herself watched keenly by admirers, other clubs, and at many other events. She has earned the spot of the leading dance lady of the Eyadina lounge, found in uMlazi and Kwazulu-Natal. At the moment, she has been signed to DJ Tira&#8217;s record label and is been managed by DJ Tira.<\/p>\n<p>Equally important, Wabantu\u2019s dance has been described differently by different people from sexy, not so appropriate for under-aged people, off-limits, and talented amidst other descriptions. While dancing, she enjoys wearing revealing clothes, dancing with just underwear, and in many cases, she dances without wearing underpants. It is, for this reason, she has claimed the name of \u2018Pantyless dancer\u2019 among others.<\/p>\n<p>Also for her sense of dressing, she was banned from dancing in Zimbabwe in 2017, and the then-president Mugabe also vented his anger towards her for not being \u2018decent\u2019. Furthermore, she does not shy away from doing a lot of crazy things when she takes charge of the stage with her skills. In 2019 while dancing on stage, she removed her underpants and flagged it off for fans. Even though she has been heavily criticized for her extreme behavior on and off stage, the dancer seems to enjoy doing her thing her own way.<\/p>\n<p>Aside from the above-mentioned, she is further popular for the many other controversies surrounding her. Among them include saying she\u2019ll have her husband adopt her name after marriage; proposing to her then 24-year-old boyfriend in 2019, showing off her private parts on social media, alleged preying on young men for the said flirty comments she makes to young stars on social media, getting married to herself, and for many other reasons.<\/p>\n<p>In her career, she has been recognized and an award was given to her for her drama in 2017 by the Feathers Awards. In fact, the award ceremony gave many a lot to talk about, especially regarding her dressing where she decided to show off her cloth with a bear underneath. As memorable as it was for her, The Feathers Awards and Thami Dish Foundation ripped her off the award in 2019 for making what was viewed as \u201cinsensitive comments about the LGBTQI+ community\u201d on DSTV Moja Love channel in an episode of Zodwa Wabantu: Uncensored.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Zodwa Wabantu&#8217;s House and Cars Show her Successes<\/strong><\/h2>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">life comes to those who believe <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/VqipJI966n\">pic.twitter.com\/VqipJI966n<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Zodwa Wabantu (@wabantu_zodwa) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/wabantu_zodwa\/status\/1012437485501210625?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 28, 2018<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>As aforementioned, she has gathered both fame and wealth over the course of years with the dance.
