Updated | By The Drive with Rob & Roz
It looks like South Africans are not the only ones left in the dark. The billionaire Kylie Jenner recently experienced a power outage at her house while doing her makeup.
South Africans are currently dealing with the worst load shedding ever.

Eskom CEO André de Ryter has come under immense pressure amid some of the worst load shedding the country has experienced to date.
On Tuesday, Public Enterprises Minister Pravin Gordhan said a new board will be announced soon.

Some political parties, such as the EFF, and energy experts have been calling for De Ruyter’s head, saying he is unfit to lead the struggling power utility.
Jacaranda FM spoke to political analyst Theo Venter, and he believes De Ruyter is unlikely to follow some of the board members out the door.
“André de Ruyter is not an engineer; he is a specialist manager of a large number of people. He got his training at Sasol, which had the same amount of people employed as Eskom, so he knows how to manage people."

The current load shedding has caused immense frustration, but a recent video by Kylie Jenner has made South Africans laugh as they can relate.
In the viral video, the billionaire and makeup mogul was doing her makeup when she suddenly experienced a power outage.
Her daughter asked her, "what happened to the TV" and she responded, "we have a power outage."
