Warriors have always stuck to the traditional yellow/gold, white and green colours, throughout the years, our white kit has been kept to an almost plain colour with no excessive detail.
Before the Warriors took on Cameroon last night in a match that ended one all, Warriors forwards Tendai Ndoro and Mathew Rusike provided us with a full picture of the new kit after the two players posted their respective shirts on Twitter.

Up until now, the new jersey was just a subject of speculation after the association dumped the Spanish sports clothing manufacturer Joma in favour of the Singapore-based sportswear maker Mafro.
Well, the effort isn’t that bad, after all, it’s tough to go wrong with a white shirt..and the Warriors have long rocked the colour.
The new addition to the Jerseys is the dash of red.
It would have been weird had the manufacturer chose the stripped design, something that we might never get used to seeing, glad the new makers kept it to one dominating solid colour.

The palin white jersey gives for a good accommodation of another red colour from our national flag, i would say the designers managed to keep the red to a minimum and it blended well with the white.
Mafro did well with a small splash of the red, although they decided to show it more on the back of the shirts through the numbering.
Zimbabweans hold their beloved soccer team to their hearts so much so that even a wrong kit design would trigger massive outrage.
Come to think of this, how would the team look in an all black kit…after all its a befitting intimidating colour for a Warrior (Hahaha won’t happen)
I really don’t know what inspired Queen Vee to pen the song Nobody, I went to town and back trying to find answers yet the true meaning was staring me in the pants, the queen just wanna have sex!!!
And the song cover……..
Nobody is not one of those songs you innocently hum to without taking notice of the lyrics, this is a song that goes straight to your panty-dropping playlist.
Here is a song that tests your resolve to see if you can go through the entire 4 minutes of it without calling timeout.
Well, the chorus can be blissfully sung by anyone as it can pass for another catchy pop line, but once she gets into the verse and she tells her man “perfect night and I’m feeling your vibe ….you make me wanna ride” then your mood changes.
She even equates her man to a “bedroom bully like Shabba” now if you are reading this and you are wondering who Shabba Ranks is, then you might have indulged too early.
Queen Vee has always been one to drop those sexy, thirsty songs but on this track, she goes all out as she gives a graphic description of how she wants it…. In the songs she evens gives a warning that “I’m about to get fffffff in this mother ffffffff…”
Did we mention how the producer, gT Beats managed to capture all that raunchiness in a finely produced song on a classic sample of Marvin Gaye’s Sexual Healing?
So much for the words listen to the song below and find out for yourself. The song was released on Saturday 7 January
Young and passionate Zimbabwean fashion designer David Alford continues to break the mold.
David Alford
The Award winning designer will join other chic guests on the 9th of February in New York as they will be showcasing their winter 2017 fashion collection.
New york fashion week will be hosted at the rooftop venue in Manhattan (Studio 450) and David will showcase his collection on the 11th at around 5 pm.
The event will be David’s first time for his brand David Alford to be showcased at the New York fashion week.
David believes that this is an opportunity for his collection which he hasn’t named yet, to step in another world of fashion.
“This is the first time we are showcasing at New York Fashion Week and it will be our biggest show to date,” he said.
“New york was has endless possibilities for designers who showcase at Fashion Week, already I feel like I am stepping into another world of fashion and business.”
David further informed Zimbuzz that the collection that will be showcased in New York, will be from their forthcoming winter 2017 collection.
He also hopes to get connections not only in New york but also in the American region.
“I suppose the ultimate goal would be starting conversations with department stores, boutiques and magazines based not just in New York but America itself.
David Alford and his team last year showcased their designs in Accra, Paris and Nairobi Fashion Runways.
However, he said he has learnt a lot in the previous runways but New York is a different ball game compared to other shows.
Okay so I think it’s safe to come out from behind our phones and we can stop juicing up our bundles cause we think another Live video might just drop.
Our favorite reality show Keeping up with the Chidemes might just be coming to an end and like all good reality shows this one has that Sit down and Breakdown of the thoughts and feelings of the main “actors” and in this case our favorite Media Lady, Ruvheneko is having a sit down with The Award Winning rapper Stunner Da Des a.k.a Desmond Chideme on Monday LIVE on Facebook at 1600hrs today.
Our Editor Michael Shoko managed to speak to Ruvheneko about the groundbreaking interview as well as what this new phenomenon of new media means for the broadcast industry.
“Broadcast media has few boundaries now, the only thing restricting us may be the institutions we work for…and perhaps Constitutions and International Laws,” said Ruvheneko.
“Otherwise New Media has taken over and we’d be foolish not to take advantage of this exciting wave. Our generation can have so much fun with this and move from a national journalist to international in a heartbeat,” she added.
She also said as media we just should not abuse this and make sure we remain professional since our mandate is always to educate, inform and entertain.
Ruvheneko said the interview will probably last for an hour.
Now we all know that Ruvheneko is a hard nut when it comes to getting the truth and asking the questions that no one else will ask.
Bride-to-be Olinda Chapel-Chideme who is set to wed Hip-hop genius Stunner might have given us a hint of what to expect in her future nuptials.

And she got the style.
Writing on her facebook page this past week, she posted a picture of what we think is her choice for the special day, but she decided to be modest about it.
She wrote:
“When you find the perfect dress and it’s 14k, then you remember you only wear it once in your life. My mother taught me no matter how much you get, doesn’t mean you have to waste. Enough people starving in this world . .”
The post was accompanied by this picture:
Although she said the dress was expensive, it seems her preference was one detail she found irresistible to share and she just gave it all away in one facebook post.
The lovely bride seems to be avoiding the traditional meringue-style gown and opting for this showstopping modern style.

With a touch of glitz and glamour, DStv’s Zambezi Magic channel officially launched its hosting of The Arthur Evans Show, a Zimbabwean magazine show now appearing on the channel for a continental audience.

The launch event took place in Bulawayo in the build-up to Christmas, featuring song and dance and a series of endorsements of the show, which gives additional Zimbabwean content to a channel designed to focus on film and television material produced in Southern Africa.
Speaking at the event, MultiChoice Zimbabwe publicity and public relations manager Liz Dziva was enthusiastic about reaction to the show since it started a 13-week run on Zambezi Magic in November.
She said that Zambezi Magic was launched to provide a meaningful platform for content from Southern Africa including Zimbabwe, and had already showcased a selection of leading films and television productions from local producers.
The inclusion of the Arthur Evans show had added a new dimension, giving exposure to a range of Zimbabwean people who were guests on the show during its run.
“We are excited about this show and about the great things it is doing for Zimbabwe on the African television scene, and we hope this will be the first of many series to be aired on Zambezi Magic,” he said.

Guests appearing include Oliver Mtukudzi, Ammara Brown, Sandra Ndebele, Carl Joshua Ncube, Jeys Marabini, Munya Chidzonga and many others.
“Zambezi Magic is a channel that would like to focus on content from Zimbabwe and the introduction of shows like this reinforce its mission to do so,” said Ms Dziva.
Zimbabwean content in the recent past includes shows like Wedding Diaries, Makosi Today, Celebrate Life, Tonight With Zororo, Wine and Dine With Tumi and Zambezi News, among others.

The Miss Zimbabwe Circus and the Glamourous Miss Tourism Zimbabwe
The pageant was initially pencilled for April and was later pushed to July leading to the cancellation of the contest. The decision was reached after the Trust did not get the sufficient number of ladies during the scouting process.
We later learnt that Miss Zimbabwe Trust Chairperson Mrs Mary Chiwenga said that they failed to find beautiful girls to represent the country.

Skimbo and Lady Squanda
Skimbo
A pitiful and stunning video of Lady Squanda forcing comedian Skimbo to lick her feet became a web sensation in July. The casualty described to Zimbuzz how he was allegedly taken from his home after Squanda said she wanted to do a collaboration with him.
The video forced the organisers of a UK gig to remove Squanda from the tour and later replaced her with Skimbo as a show of pity.
Morgan Heritage finally performed in Zimbabwe
Grammy award-winning ensemble Morgan Heritage finally came to Zimbabwe but through a new promoter, 2Kings Entertainment.
The group had for a long time been pencilled to perform in Harare in December of 2015 but the show was cancelled. However, in October, they performed before a full house at the HICC.
