Babes Wodumo and her co-accused appeared at the Durban Magistrate's Court on Wednesday morning.
Their appearance, however, was short-lived as Wodumo, her sister Nondumiso Simelane and artist Tipcee’s pre-trail for common assault was postponed until May 30 due to an apparent confusion of dates.
Wodumo, who donned a red wig to the proceedings, broke out into a vosho dance at the news.

She and her co-accused face charges over the alleged assault of businesswoman Nelisiwe Zondi in March. Zondi claims that she was ambushed at a party in Glenwood, Durban, by the trio who accused her of working for Mampinstha after she tried to record them with her cellphone.
According to Mampinsha's manager, Lindo Buthelezi, the gqom artist and Wodumo have since reconciled following their domestic abuse incident that was live-streamed on Instagram. Mampinsha has also reportedly withdrawn his assault counter-charge against Wodumo.
Earlier this week, Wodumo posted shared a picture of herself in the same red wig on Instagram, and captioned it :"Night ❤️❤️😍😘".
