George Lebese responds to social media frenzy

Johannesburg - George Lebese has found himself publicly defending his sexuality today after trending on Twitter.

It comes after a Twitter user, who uses the hashtag @KaraboNYC apparently Tweeted the soccer star.

All tweets have since been deleted, including pictures that Karabo apparently posted online.

However, The Juice has been able to find one snap, which Karabo claims is a conversation between himself and George. 

It is important to note that there is absolutely no proof that this is a conversation between George and Karabo. (We know how easy it is to fake Twitter accounts, just ask AKA)

Soon George became a fast talking point, with some fans applauding his decision to 'come out' (He hasn't) while others expressed their disappointment that he is now off the market for them. (He isn't)

George took matters into his own hands, after seeing all of the talk and tweeted this...
