Lasizwe dreams big: Tyla and Bonang Matheba top his 'Awkward Dates' guest list

Lasizwe is entering his dream guest era. With his YouTube show "Awkward Dates" becoming a fan favourite for its messy moments, flirtatious chaos, and painfully funny silences, the content creator is now manifesting his ultimate celebrity line-up, and Mzansi is eating it up.

The YouTuber and content creator recently took to Instagram to share the famous faces he dreams of having across the table from him.

Among the names are TV personality Bonang Matheba, Grammy winner Tyla, viral sensation Uncle Waffles, "Shaka iLembe" lead Thembinkosi Mthembu, and former Miss Universe, Zozibini Tunzi.

“Manifesting to go on an 'Awkward Date' with them! Who else should I ask to go on a date with?” he wrote, tagging the stars in the post.

The comment section was flooded with suggestions from fans, who threw in names like Babes Wodumo, Nomzamo Mbatha and even more unexpected picks, proving that Mzansi loves the mix of charm, cringe and randomness that the show delivers.

And we get to see a different side of these celebs as they are put in these unpleasant situations.

Since launching in 2022, "Awkward Dates" has become known for its unfiltered, sometimes uncomfortable questions.

From his date with Pamela Mtanga where things got steamy and uncomfortable, to the episode with Nolo Seabi that had everyone choosing sides on social media – each guest brings something new to the awkward dining table.

One moment it’s cute flirting, the next you’re nursing secondhand embarrassment.

Fans have praised the show for its humour and unpredictability, a refreshing break from overly scripted content. Lasizwe keeps it real, asking the questions most wouldn’t dare and somehow still making it charming.

Reaching a million subscribers shows just how far he’s come, from comedy skits in a pink robe to rubbing shoulders with the country’s most talked-about stars.

With the way things are going, seeing Tyla or Uncle Waffles across the table is not far-fetched.

One fan wrote, "Bonang, she’s really so funny and I feel like she will give us so many quotable 😭"

Another commented, "@siyakolisi Please 🥹🥹🥹, we want our head boy please 😂"

While another suggested, "I just thought about it now. Lawrence Maleka would be dope as well yoh 😭😭😭"

I guess we're going to have to wait and see who makes the cut.
