Popular Zimbabwean comedian, Madam Boss, has shared multiple photos of herself meeting popular American celebrities in the USA.
At the 2025 ceremony, Madam Boss dazzled on the red carpet and attended exclusive events, including an after-party hosted by comedian and musician Jamie Foxx. She was seen capturing treasured moments with A-list celebrities such as Tyler Perry and the Fresh Prince himself, Will Smith, who debuted a gospel song at the event. Other notable stars she interacted with include Usher Raymond, continuing his legacy after receiving a lifetime achievement award the previous year, and South African star Tyla.
Her invitation to the BET Awards was facilitated by Shaleen Nullens (Ms Shally), a US-based Zimbabwean and influential PR manager who works closely with BET International to bridge American and international cultures. Ms Shally emphasized that Madam Boss was chosen due to her massive social media influence and ability to represent Zimbabwe with elegance and authenticity.
Despite some criticism from Zimbabwean netizens questioning her attendance, cultural curator Plot Mhako defended Madam Boss, highlighting the difficulty of gaining access to such a high-profile event and urging support for her achievements.
