South African Amapiano sensation, Pabi Cooper has bagged a new gig!
The young musician will now be able to add “Sports Presenter” to her resume.
Pabi Cooper will be presenting for the Good Morning Qatar show on SABC 1.
Pabi made this announcement on Tuesday morning and teased a few pictures of herself on set.
Despite being knowledgeable of the sport and being a soccer referee by profession, many have taken to social media to question the validity and credibility of the Amapiano star’s appointment. Some have even gone to the extent of displaying blatant sexism.
One Twitter user completely denied Pabi’s appointment and insinuated that other women could be more knowledgeable about soccer than Pabi.
“Don’t footy ladies get such opportunities, there’s probably ladies around FT who are more knowledgeable than Pabi”, he said.
To which Pabi replied: “…been playing football for 4 years & I’m a referee by profession”.
Abutaka ake ngwana 😊 been playing football for 4 years & im a referee by profession 🫵🏼⚽️ https://t.co/minl8JqKrC pic.twitter.com/9f2teOZ3G4
