South African rapper Fifi Cooper has found herself in the spotlight once again, following allegations by singer Naledi Aphiwe that she stole her iPhone. The situation took a new turn when Fifi Cooper was spotted seemingly purchasing a new device at an Apple store, fueling fresh waves of speculation online.
Fifi Cooper Defends Herself Against Theft Allegations
The controversy began when “Truth or Dare” hitmaker Fifi Cooper was accused by rising star Naledi Aphiwe of stealing her iPhone, valued at around R19,000. In response, Fifi passionately defended herself against the accusations, firmly denying any involvement in the alleged theft.
Despite her denials, the incident left a lingering cloud over her reputation, and online discussions about the feud between the two musicians remained heated.
Fifi Cooper’s Apple Store Visit Raises Eyebrows
In a video shared by @MDNnewss on social media, Fifi Cooper was seen at an iStore talking to a sales assistant. The footage appeared to show her inspecting and possibly purchasing a new iPhone. This visit came just weeks after Naledi’s accusations, causing many online users to link the two events.
Some commenters speculated whether Fifi Cooper had bought the phone to replace the one she was accused of taking, while others suggested she may have traded in an older device. The timing, for many, seemed suspicious.
One user, @AlfredZNcube, joked, “She sold the one she stole from Naledi and bought a new one,” while another, @I_am_Bucie, pointed out, “Her buying a new iPhone after being suspected makes her look even more guilty.”
Divided Reactions from Fans
Reactions on social media were mixed. While many were quick to pass judgment, others came to Fifi Cooper’s defense. Some, like @Black_Is_Queen, expressed disbelief that Fifi would steal a cellphone, saying, “I still don’t believe Fifi would stoop that low.”
Others were less forgiving, suggesting that the public nature of her purchase – recording and sharing the moment – appeared calculated to counter the accusations but only raised more questions.
Naledi Aphiwe Moves On with New Success
Meanwhile, Naledi Aphiwe seems to be moving forward positively. After the theft incident, she celebrated getting a brand-new iPhone and continues to thrive in her music career. Recently, Naledi’s hit single “Ngiyabonga” was certified platinum, cementing her place as one of South Africa’s fast-rising stars.
Her rise to fame has been impressive, particularly after being featured on Chris Brown’s song “Shooter” and meeting him during his visit to South Africa. Naledi has since released a series of successful tracks, winning more fans with each release.
Final Thoughts
As speculation around Fifi Cooper’s recent iPhone purchase continues, the rapper remains silent on the latest chatter. Whether intentional or not, her visit to the Apple store has reignited debates about her alleged involvement in Naledi Aphiwe’s missing phone. Meanwhile, both stars seem determined to focus on their music careers, leaving the final verdict up to public opinion.
