T-Pain’s performance at South Africa’s annual Macufe African Cultural Festival has been lambasted by local artists for the star’s alleged elitist and disrespectful behavior.

Several artists have reported that they were kicked out of the backstage changing area because T-Pain refused to share space with them.

Others stated they were hara**ed simply for attempting to watch the American star’s set from the vicinity of the stage.

Artist Thembi Seete verified that she had a confrontation with security guards, and feels that the U.S. artists look down on their peers from other countries.

“I want to thank Macufe organizers for allowing me to perform there, but what happened to me was unacceptable,” she explained to the Sunday World. “I wasn’t allowed to stand next to the stage when T-Pain was performing. It is sad that these U.S. artists think they are all that and [can] treat local artists the way they treated us.”

Seete’s manager Kgomo Modise said these issues are nothing new, and happen every time an international star makes their way to the country.

“My artist was seated next to the stage waiting to perform when local security guards came and ordered us to leave the vicinity,” Modise explained to Sunday World. “We asked him why because we had ‘all access’ cards and artists tags but he insisted we leave the place. It was only when we threatened to expose them in the media that they left us alone. It is bad that local artists are treated like this every time an international artist is here.”

Festival organizer Joe Chakela vehemently denied the accusations, but conceded there was a policy in place to make sure no artists remained on stage after a performance.

“People must not come with their own stories. Nobody was manhandled or chased away from the stage,” he stated. “The policy was that artists who had finished performing must not go on stage or near it to watch T-Pain perform.”

T-Pain is working on a new album, tentatively titled Revolver.

Even media wasn't allowed near the backstage area when he came on, but we were for everyone else's performances, including the O'Jays.

Dude lip synched through his entire bullshit set and then got off stage and drove straight to the airport where a plane was waiting to fly him back to Jo'burg, because he didn't wanna spend the night in a "small town".

He also didn't show for his sound check before the show and arrived a few minutes before, cos he stayed in Jo'burg till the last minute and had to be flown in by chartered plane.

One would think he is actually a talented artist the way he acts.

it's hardly news. local support acts are rarely allowed anywhere near the headliner.

D, they were'nt just not allowed near him, they had to vacate the backstage area completely. They couldn't even chill in the VIP tent when he was there.

Anyway, check Oprah taking a ten minute leak

These guys are worth over $10 million + have International fame, of course they will feel physically threatened being around ppl who aren't on their level. I don't think its fair but money talks.

Yeah. The same thing happens every year, and the local artists cry every year about the same shit.

Shit ain't gon change, these international artist put that shit in their contracts that backstage should be cleared for them and other rediculous demands, it's all in black and white.
Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote.

He wasn't walking the streets you f***ing idiot. He was backstage at a concert in the VIP tent with Thembi Seete, Fistaz Mixwell, DJ Lebo, Presss, Chomee & Arthur and the like. Do you think they would just try to jump him cos he is T-Pain?

Chomee can be a little scary sometimes though. I understand.

And f*** him for not wanting to spend any more time in Bloem that to "perform" his shitty little songs, but he is willing to take Bloem people's money.
