‘Guys, I’m alive’

During her time at Power FM, the broadcaster would trend for her images that the station posted on its social media to promote her midday show.
Social media users would body-shame her for having shed some kilos, and others even claimed that the station’s social media admin was setting her up for ridicule.
“I thought being body-shamed, I thought being number six on the best-dressed list and worst-dressed list in the same year, that’s fu*ken weird. Like a lot of sh*t’s happened to me, but I think this might be the weirdest. Guys, I’m alive,” she said as she sarcastically laughed off the rumours.
“I’m very much alive October the 20th 2025, I’m alive.”
Life after Power FM
After some listeners wondered about Moloi’s absence from the airwaves on the lunchtime show Power Lunch, the broadcaster in August confirmed her departure from Power FM, saying she had resigned.
“Ms Pabi Moloi tendered her resignation on 31 July 2025, which we duly accepted,” Power FM told The Citizen at the time.

“Hey friends, I resigned from Power FM last month. I look forward to this new chapter,” shared Moloi on her social media accounts.
The broadcaster has been with Power FM for more than a decade, with her voice heard in one of the trademark jingles on the station.
The Citizen reached out to Moloi on various platforms at the time for comment, but she never responded.
Moloi recently launched her podcast, the Pabi Moloi Podcast.
In one episode on the podcast, she interviewed her mother, Nana Moloi, who is a former actress who played the character of Angel in the 1994 film Ipi Tombi.
