Listeners unhappy about Tina's horrific laughter on Radio!

EVER-SINCE ACTRESS Tina Jaxa joined SABC’s uMhlobo Wenene FM breakfast show – the one they call iBreakfast Eyondlayo “Evimbayo” Ekuseni, or “BEE”.

But not everyone is thrilled by her performance on the airwaves, alongside former Kaizer Chiefs public relations officer, Putco Mafani, who got the bullet from victorious Amakhosi in 2005.

Listeners have been complaining to the station and on social networks. One of them wrote:

Personally to me she’s stale and she’s just another Mgqomeni of the airwaves who woke up from the dead!

Another listener said: “Umhlobo Wenene lost its magic and creativity by using household names like Putco – and Tina just laughs ridiculously at nothing.”

Yet another unhappy radio fan wrote: Even in acting she’s boring and I don’t know what she doing on radio.

Another mocking listener said: "She laughs like she's in a horror movie or something, it's just so irritating."

A well-placed broadcasting source who knows the station well told the GoXtra News: “Now they choose to be like all the other stations that use Celebrities by using these frozen so-called celebrities.

“They should hire people who can add value to the station. Tina adds no value – and she’s better on Madam and Eve.

“I don’t even know why she was even hired by the station, they should have just taken on someone from a community station and train that particular person,” said the source.

Another listener who had a different view said: “People must not be bitter, they must accept change because radio changes with time,”

Added the source, “Tina must be given a change, yes she might not have experience on radio but she can learn and there’s always a first time for everything.”

When the GoXtra News tried to get a comment from Tina Jaxa, she told us: “I’m sorry, but I don’t do interviews on the phone, you’ll have to email me.”

Tina Jaxa promised to call GoXtra News back with the details of her email address, but she failed to do so.
