Last week, Hofmeyr shared a video on Facebook of himself driving over his decoder and throwing his dish off his roof. He promised R10 000 reward to anyone who did the same before 1 June and posted a video on Facebook.

Although some fans did what Hofmeyr asked, many social media users said it was stupid. Desire Pretorius joked on Facebook that she would destroy her decoder and buy a new one after getting the R10 000. Lerato Masilela said she did not understand the drama.
