IT’S THE MET PEOPLE. . . MAKE AN EFFORT, BATHONG!
MADI would like to express her heartfelt condolences to gospel singer Lundi’s family.
Madi prays their hearts will find solace and peace.
Madi would like to ask Mzansi why it is that we never let sleeping dogs lie? I mean everyone seems to have a theory of sorts about “the real story” behind Lundi’s death.
Madi thinks gossiping about circumstances surrounding someone’s death is distasteful. Stop it, guys, please.
Let’s move along swiftly. Madi loves being in places where celebrities would never expect her to be in.
Such was the case this past weekend when Madi just so happened to be in Panyaza in Soweto, where DJ Tira was a “special guest”. Madi is not a fan, and finds his music insipid, so she really couldn’t be bothered. All she saw was Tira in a frumpy T-shirt and the worldfamous gap in his mouth. What Madi found more interesting was reality star Felicia Modise – Teko Modise’s ex-wife – who went on to feature on Madi spotted her in the VIP area. Madi did a double take.
Felicia, what on earth? She was dancing away like she had no care in the world, completely forgetting to suck in her stomach. She looked deplorable in a black dress Madi would only use to wipe her feet on.
Let’s move along. So this weekend was all about the Sun Met in Cape Town.
Madi could not attend as she had better things to do, but an eager beaver sent Madi a few celeb pictures and asked me for my honest opinion. So here goes: Thando Thabethe: Madi did not like Thando’s look at all. She reminded me so much of Brenda Fassie in the 1980s singing at a “Free Mandela” concert. Also, baby-girl, you know you have a forehead. Why on earth would you expose it with the little ponytail? Basetsana Kumalo: Is it just me or does Basetsana look like an aunt who is hungover from Johannesburg beer at her nephew’s wedding? She’s a very elegant woman and could have done better. Dineo Moeketsi: Here’s another one with forehead issues. Gosh. And that dress, baby-girl. Amanda Du Pont: She was a breath of fresh air. Madi was apprehensive about the floral fabric, but she pulled it off, and looked very radiant. Sinazo Yolwa: A mess. Sinazo, please don’t wear what your grandmother would wear to a funeral when you go to the Met. Khanyi Mbau: The look almost got there. It boarded the Gautrain to Pretoria and got off in Rosebank, and it’s because of the strappy shoes. The fit was also not so perfect. Khanyi has an amazing body, and that dress did nothing to show it off.
