Zuwena, the lead video vixen in Diamond Platnumz’s music video for the song “Zuwena,” gained widespread attention when she disclosed the substantial payment she received for her role. Positioned as the central figure, the video’s narrative revolved around her lifestyle.
According to Zuwena, Diamond Platnumz compensated her with $705, equivalent to approximately Tsh.1.6 Million. However, she created a stir by asserting it was Tsh.17 Million, a claim that drew online criticism for its alleged exaggeration. Despite the backlash, Zuwena’s primary objective was achieved—she successfully garnered significant attention, topping trends on both Tanzanian and Kenyan Twitter.
During a recent interview, Zuwena highlighted her substantial investment in maintaining her appearance. She shared that her makeup expenses alone amount to Tsh.500,000, translating to Ksh.25,000. This figure is noteworthy, considering that typical makeup costs range between Ksh.10,000 and 20,000.
Expressing gratitude, Zuwena acknowledged Diamond Platnumz for realizing her dreams and transforming her life. She attributed her newfound fame to the feature in his song, expressing confidence that this exposure would open doors for her to feature as a vixen in the music videos of other prominent musicians.
