Radio line -ups: As you know radio stations are changing their line-ups and there have been a few surprises some that you know of already.
Gareth Cliff has left 5FM – shocking. No word to where he is headed but if we can speculate it might be Highveld, what other station would be a match to Gareth? Power FM?
Bonang also said goodbye to YFM. With her hustle on a 100 we are surprised she stayed that long. This IT girl knows how to get jobs. Pearl who? The still “unconfirmed” rumour that she is replacing Siphokazi January on Metro FM from the 1st of April which is today will be put to bed. We will all be tuning in to find out. Siphokazi will be making her way to the midday slot.
Another YFM personalities out are Tumi Vorster and DJ Warras. Reports say Tumi was let go. Whether it’s let go -let go, or fired it’s unknown. Warras apparently was let go after a contract dispute.
Flava in the morning show was restructured and is now the “Rise N Tap with DJ Ankle Tap”. Mo Flava took on a bigger slot. We all know what that means, drive time show The Freeway with MoFlava which will also feature former morning slot co-host Khutso Theledi.
Some other great news for Khutso is her slot as the presenter for R&B Tuesdays at 9am – 10am & again from 9pm to 10pm. This could be the rise of another IT girl, a gusheshe spinning one. Congrats.
Power Hour’s Chris Vick also bid farewell to Power FM. No word on his replacement yet.
We will be keeping you up with the line-up updates from other stations.
In non-radio news:
Rolene Strauss was crowned as the news Miss South Africa over the weekend in that dress we fail to understand. We are also getting used to “palesa” aka the crown. Goodluck to her. Kahle kahle who was the last Miss SA before her? What did she do because she has been a non-factor Miss SA throughout her reign.
Judith Sephuma lost her baby girl last week. The little girl was laid to rest on thursday. Nothing is as sad as the loss of an innocent child. Our deepest sympathy to the family and loved ones.
The Muffinz will be the opening act to British soul singer Joss Stone’s show at Carnival City tomorrow. If you are going please do share the experience.
Fake interpreter, Thamsanqa Jantjie is a woman beater. TJO. Another papgeld case. Amadoda.
