“It boosts my confidence,” Nomfundo Moh on her Metro Awards nominations
Having received two nominations for the Metro FM Awards 2023, Nomfundo Moh is overjoyed. The singer tells ZiMoja that she is appreciative and that it means a lot to her.
“This means a lot to me. It boosts my confidence because it means that my music is being recognised and appreciated by the right ears,” Nomfundo tells the publication.
“My team and I put a lot of effort to make my brand work. It means my efforts are being recognised and I just want to keep on pushing so that good things can come my way.”

Furthermore, Nomfundo Moh has responded to those who make fun of her appearance and label her ugly. The singer asked listeners to pay attention to her music rather than her face or body while speaking to ZiMoja.
Nomfundo Moh asserts that she is powerless to alter her appearance or body type.
“I have overcome a lot of challenges, one of them being bullying, social media hate almost broke me,” she says.
“I received a lot of hate from people calling me ugly, some criticising my size and petite body type. People criticise things that I have no control over,” she adds.
“That hits differently compared to something that I have control over. Had they been judging my make-up or hair, then I would understand because I can change a hairstyle or fix the makeup and move on but when I get criticised for something I can’t change, it hurts. That shattered me a lot. I sat down and wrote a song titled Ndabazabantu to encourage myself and to tell people that, being the way I look doesn’t mean I am happy.”
