Discover the transformative power of Belly Dance at the Women's Wellness Experience
Aphrodite Belly Dance Studio will showcase the transformative power of belly dance at the upcoming Women's Wellness Experience on 30 August 2025 in Cape Town. Image: Supplied Aphrodite Belly Dance Studio will showcase the transformative power of belly dance at the upcoming Women's Wellness Experience on 30 August 2025 in Cape Town. This event is designed to empower women of all shapes and sizes, demonstrating that belly dance is more than just performance; it is a practice of self-love, confidence, and community. Often misunderstood or overly sexualised, belly dance at Aphrodite challenges stereotypes by focusing on emotional healing and self-acceptance. 'It's about expressing yourself, not impressing others,' says Stephanie Singh, co-founder and choreographer, who has recently returned from an inspiring trek up Mt Kilimanjaro. 'Many women believe they're 'too old' or 'too unfit' to dance, but belly dance embraces all bodies. It helps women reconnect with their confidence and joy.' Women new to belly dance often arrive hesitant, but quickly find comfort and camaraderie. 'They start by hiding behind oversized clothes and dancing away from mirrors, but as they grow in confidence, they laugh more freely, share stories, and celebrate their bodies,' Singh explains. Sensual movement is a vital element of the wellness experience, helping participants release trauma and stress while fostering self-acceptance. 'Movement reconnects the body and mind,' Singh notes. 'With every breath and shimmy, women let go of pain and reclaim their worth.' Video Player is loading.

AI-generated influencers are here and they look real — are we falling for it?
She's got icy blue eyes, flawless skin and a fashion feed that would make any influencer jealous. But Mia Zelu, the Instagram star who recently 'attended' Wimbledon, isn't real. She's an AI-generated character with 169,000 followers and counting. Zelu sent social media into a spin after she shared courtside snaps at Wimbledon asking fans: 'Which Wimbledon match was your fave?' The post racked up more than 16,000 likes and 500 comments with many swooning over her 'natural beauty'. The catch? Mia Zelu is 100% artificial, designed to look human, act relatable, and rack up influence. The virtual influencer was introduced to the world in March 2025 by her 'sister' Ana Zelu, another AI-generated persona who has been active since early 2024. Ana captioned their first joint photo: '[Mia] finally decided to open up her Instagram, so show her some love!' Mia's debut solo post followed a day later with a cosy picture of her in a hoodie with a kitten on her lap and the caption: 'I believe coffee tastes better in cute cafés, and I live for cosy hoodies and deep conversations.'

Crowning change: Lee-Ann Naidoo breaks barriers as Global Mrs Supranational Tourism Queen 2025
Lee-Ann Naidoo is the first Indian South African to grasp the prestigious Global Mrs Supranational Tourism Queen Ambassador Worldwide 2025 title. Image: Facebook. Former Durbanite, Lee-Ann Naidoo, recently made history after being crowned Global Mrs Supranational Tourism Queen Ambassador Worldwide 2025 in a dazzling ceremony held in Yangon, Myanmar. This triumph marks a significant cultural moment as Naidoo becomes the first Indian South African to hold this prestigious title, designed to celebrate married women from every corner of the globe. Naidoo's journey began with her victory at the Mrs Supranational SA pageant earlier this year. The Mrs Supranational competition is part of the broader Supranational pageant family, which also includes Miss and Mister Supranational events, focusing on evaluating participants through public speaking, community engagement and overall presentation skills. "I am a proud mother of three and a professionally trained chef,' Naidoo shared, reflecting on her diverse life journey that transitioned from kitchen artistry to pageantry. "My journey has taken me from the kitchen to the crown … A baker turned beauty queen. I am also a survivor of gender-based violence, a role that fuels my advocacy and purpose," shared Naidoo.

Next Stay Close ✕ Lee-Ann Naidoo. Image: Facebook. "My experience in pageantry runs deep; in 2023, I was crowned Mrs Grand South Africa ... Beyond the stage, I am a pageant coach and a committed advocate for women's empowerment. I am passionate about philanthropy and community service, particularly in addressing period poverty and combating gender-based violence." Her resilience and commitment were undeniably shaped by her South African heritage, fostering a belief in her responsibility to represent her community on the global stage. "Growing up, opportunities for Indian women to enter the world of international pageantry were few and far between. But we saw them, admired the glamour and dreamed quietly. They always felt distant, like something meant for someone else. "For an Indian girl in a close-knit Indian community, global stage pageantry felt just out of reach," she said. For Naidoo, the journey to this moment was one filled with preparation, enthusiasm and a forceful drive to challenge herself. 'I never imagined competing at an international level,' she confessed, crediting her father's dreams and teachings of etiquette and poise as pivotal in her early life. "From a young age, he immersed me in the world of modelling and pageantry ... Though I often resisted, he remained firm in his belief that his daughters were destined for the world stage. 'At 42, I finally stepped into the dream he had planted decades earlier. Winning Mrs Grand South Africa in 2023 and going on to represent my country internationally was more than a personal victory; it was the fulfilment of my father's dream. "Bringing home the title was a moment of immense pride, not just for me, but for South Africa. It was a win for every dream he quietly nurtured, and I am deeply grateful to have honoured him and my country in that way. Preparing for the pageant required immense discipline and commitment, pushing Naidoo to new heights physically, mentally and emotionally. 'I overcame doubts and challenges, including securing sponsorships and managing my family responsibilities. Ultimately, I drew strength from my husband and my sister queens, reminding myself that I was not alone in this fight for excellence.' Lee-Ann Naidoo being crowned at the pageant. Image: Facebook. The preparation process included training in essential skills such as posture, public speaking and even an energetic talent performance of Shakira's "Waka Waka", which Naidoo selected for its themes of unity and empowerment. Her every move was aimed not just at winning but to represent South Africa with dignity and pride. Competing against over 60 talented women from around the world, Naidoo spoke of the "sisterhood" that developed during the competition. "The sisterhood among the international queens was something extraordinary. Though we were competitors, we laughed together, cried together and shared moments that have created lifelong bonds." When the moment arrived for the announcement of the winner, Naidoo described feeling surreal and overwhelmed. "Honestly, it took me about six hours before the reality of my win truly sank in. I didn't fully grasp the magnitude of my title until it was thoroughly explained by the directorship. "It was an incredible moment, one I still find hard to believe, a genuine pinch-me experience." Since stepping off that stage, life has begun to transform dramatically for Naidoo, with opportunities for fashion week in Milan and Paris already on the horizon. "I'm excited to see how my year unfolds and what doors are opened as I embark on a queen's journey holding the crown for South Africa." Lee-Ann Naidoo. Image: Facebook. Naidoo's message to other aspiring Indian South African women is to dream big and embrace their unique paths. "Seek knowledge, master your craft and greatness will follow. Lead with an open heart, filled with love and acceptance and inspire others by example. "Remember, we rise stronger as a collective ... Stay true to yourself, lead with honour and integrity, and embrace your authentic self fully ... The human spirit triumphs over adversity when we believe in our own strength and capacity. Fight for your dreams, live with purpose and serve others generously."
