Tino Chinyani Dragged For ‘Ridiculous’ Booking Fees
Actor and media personality may not have been that famous before dating actress and singer Simz Ngema. Their relationship may not have worked out but at least they have a baby to show for it and we love to see it.
Just recently, however, it seems Tino has ruffled the wrong feathers after it was discovered how much he charges just to book him to make a performance.
As reported by entertainment blogger Musa Khawula on Twitter, in order to book Tino for a gig, you have to pay a whooping R15 000. The news has come as a shock to many who are still wondering what exactly Tino does that would warrant such an expensive charge rate.

And while some of the reactions are a bit hilarious, most if not all of the tweeps reacting are quite literally mopping the floor  with Tino. According to most of them, Tino is only charging this much because he is an ex to Simz and now feels famous enough to quote such a price.


If that is not enough, many have gone to make a guess at what exactly he does because he surely cannot be charging 15k just to see him model on stage is he? To answer that question, tweeps have uncovered one of his music videos with many surprised that Tino even sings in the first place. 

One thing is for sure, tweeps are simply not taking this news as pleasantly as had been expected.

That aside however, Tino just recently took to his Instagram to share cute father and son moments and we have to agree that these two make one adorable duo. Both father and son just recently featured on their first magazine cover together that stole the hearts of many in Mzansi.

One thing that’s for sure is that Tino is all about living it big and we love to see it. He just recently awarded himself with a luxurious whip that had tongues wagging. Tino has always been living it soft and so to see him show off his brand new Bentley. 

And judging by the extravagant life the TV star has set for himself, it is no wonder that he has to charge that much money just for him to show up and perform. Who even knew he can sing?
