It’s a new week, and that’s a step closer to 2016. Hope your weekend was a good one.
Topical issue lately has been Oscar Pistorius. I have never been so unnecessarily confused in my life. Am I allowed to blame Judge Masipa for all this mess? Don’t get me wrong, I’m happy with the new verdict. I just don’t understand why and how things turned out the way they did from the beginning. We are supposed to be done with this by now. SMH! #JusticeForReeva
Trust the Cartoonists to make fun out of this. I laughed when someone said Judge Masipa is the Thamsanqa Jantjie of the Judges. Lol
Sunday Sun
This weekend Uhuru made healines for all the wrong reasons. I know their names but I have no idea who is who? Apparently the group has split and things got heated at an event where they were booked to perform. 2 of the band members where performing Uhuru songs then the other 2 showed up and caused a scene asking why they are performing Uhuru songs. The confrontation got so ugly that Xeli ended up clapping Maphorisa. Like I said; I wish I knew whose who in all of this. Even Google doesn’t help. Sigh!
More stage drama happened to TV/Radio personality Chriselda Kananda who was booked to be the Moderator at the Joburg Summit of the Forum on China-Africa Co-operation. SS reports that Chriselda was shown the door at the 11th hour because she can’t speak French. This made the 1st Lady Thobeka Zuma very angry. She ordered that they reinstate Chriselda whether they like it or not, and thank goodness they did. Yazi kudlaliwe ngaye? Such disrespect? What’s French got to do with anything? What’s so special about it? I remember I was watching the news on Friday and there were a lot of Head of States. Presidents Jacob Zuma and Robert Mugabe made their speeches in English, and the Chinese President made his in Chinese. I found myself annoyed and wishing Msholozi had used Zulu and Bob should have used Shona too. Why are we stressing ourselves with this English when people from other countries (who are also supposed to know English) aren’t even trying? Sigh!
TJO, bathi Unathi is worried because she hasn’t been asked to sign a contract for the next season of Idols SA. It’s reported that other judges have been offered contracts already but Unathi is still in the dark. What does this mean? O_o
The sad part about being a celeb is that, whatever happens in your family/friends’ lives always ends up being about you. Mbali Mlotshwa’s mum Bongi Mlotshwa is said to be at war with Masechaba Mlotshwa over a house that belonged to their grandfather. Apparently Bongi has been trying to kick Masechaba out of the house, but Masechaba won’t budge. Bathi she even said she doesn’t know why Mbali and Black Coffee don’t buy her a house so that she can stay away from her. Mbali’s mum also happens to work for Generations The Legacy.
Wendy Parker is back in the news, and this time it’s about her non existent pregnancy. Remember that time when Wendy fought with Nonhle Ndala? It was the time when Nonhle was pregnant, and Wendy also said she was pregnant. Months later, Wendy’s pregnancy remains a mystery.
Lol @ her response to SS. Kwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
TJO! It’s reported that Minnie Dlamini angered a crowd where she was supposed to give a motivational speech. Apparently she started talking about her riches and how loaded she is. This is strange. Why would Minnie do something like that? I’m so lost.
Just when I thought I had seen all the strange things for 2015, Don Mlangeni aka Zeb Matabane shocks me. I think I’m gonna blame Uzalo for this shem. I don’t remember ever reading negative stuff about Ntate Matabane from his Isidingo days. He joins Uzalo, and all of a sudden he’s in the mix of things. Keep in mind, we read about Uzalo’s cast members and its drama almost every week. It’s one actor after the other, this week ke Ntate Don.
There is a lady that sent this picture to SS, telling them that Don was acting out of character and he was busy touching her. She had asked for a picture with Don, but he apparently took things way to far. When asked about these allegations Don denied and said he’s too grown for such. I think he didn’t know gore there was a picture of him in action. Hehehe
*in other News* Actress Lerato Mvelase is now a Sangoma. She’s been posting a lot about it on social media. She’s ready, she’s loving it and she’s embracing it.
Sunday World
We’ve already discussed Uhuru so let’s skip that. Hopefully they resolve their issues. I mean, it’s way too early for them to be splitting over some petty drama.
Tata must be turning in his grave because Mbuso Mandela stru. SW reports that Mbuso left the Hospital he was sent to for observation just so he can go drinking with his friends. When the hospital called Makaziwe Mandela, he made it clear to Mbuso that if he doesn’t go back to that hospital, then they will disown him. Thatha Maki.
Honestly the drama surrounding Soccer players never stops. Lantshene Phalane who plays for Bloemfontein Celtic is in trouble after some chic posted a nude video of him on line. He says his phone got stolen at a pool party and the next day he was being blackmailed. Apparently the chic said he must post a picture of her on FB telling the world that she’s his girlfriend otherwise she’s leaking them nudes. Lantshena didn’t do that and now his nude video is all over. He says he had recorded the video for his girlfriend Reneilwe. It was her birthday present when she was in France. Lol, kwanzima!
There is a story about a lady called Sheila Mashigo being stalked by Andrew White and it’s really creepy. She says she met Andrew on the net, they dated for 2 weeks but she could pick up that something wasn’t right with him. She ended the relationship after 4 dates but Andrew didn’t want to accept it, so he started stalking her and threatening her.
Shame, this lady says she’s been to the cops plenty of times but the cases end up in the air because di dockets keep disappearing. Wow! Let’s hope now that she has involved the media, the cops will finally do their job.
Move
Former Generations Actress Winnie aka Khethiwe seems to be at a better space in life as far as the situation with her ex hubby Thabo is concerned. Remember things turned rough for them and Winnie even told the world that ‘Hugs and kisses don’t pay bills’. Now she’s been posting pics of Thabo. Mmmmmh! Move also reports that her Royalty Soapie Awards are struggling with sponsorship. I rolled my eyes when I read the part about Winnie and Sophie working on a new soapie to compete with Generations The Legacy. Are they serious? Why can’t they just work on a soapie? Why does it have to be about Generations? Can we move one tu.
I’m at a point where I don’t know whether I’m coming or going stru. What is Mshoza doing these days? Is she still singing? Is she still a celeb? Why are we reading about Mshoza every second week? Does she pay Move to write about her or what? I demand answers. Why are we still talking about Mshoza and her relationships?
I didn’t know Lucille Gumbi manages her hubby Trevor. Anyway, it’s been said that Trevor Gumbi will be replacing DJ Sbu on Friends Like These. Sbu is leaving because he wants to push his business ventures. Lucille told Move that her hubby is in talks with the SABC about that job.
We end things here for today. Please feel free to share more news with us.
Have a great week ahead.
