The Miss South Africa 2022 pageant on 13 August was a glamorous affair as Limpopo's Ndavi Noreki walked away with the crown. Some of Mzansi's chart-topping artists including Makhadzi and hip-hop star Rouge all performed, but it seems one performance missed the mark Tweeps dragged R&B star, Elaine, after she took the Miss SA stage at the SunBet Arena in Pretoria. The 23-year-old performed her hit song, You're The One from her debut EP, Elements.

TWEEPS DRAG ELAINE Tweeps were certainly not impressed by Elaine's performance. One tweep criticised the singer for not singing on key .
Elaine decided to sing off key? What WAS THAT? wrote one tweep.
Someone said Elaine can't sing and she's not proving that statement wrong after that performance, wrote another tweep.
I suffer from second-hand embarrassment guys and Elaine isn't doing me any justice.
Elaine avoiding all the high notes because even she doesn't believe she can hit them.
