BET award for prancing half naked?
Madi is seriously starting to get irritated at how talentless twits are constantly in our faces.
Just when we thought we’d seen the last of Chomee and her gyrations, or Thembi Seete and her inaudible voice, another mediocre performer has been hailed as the big kahuna. Babes Wodumo, Nkosi yam! Madi’s jaw dropped to the ground when it was announced that she has been nominated for a BET award! Worse, for the best international act!
Firstly, what “act” exactly? Prancing around half naked on stage converting oxygen to carbon dioxide? Hai khona!
Okay, so the nominations were held in Melrose Arch recently, and Madi, of course, put on her chinchilla coat to check out what the big fuss was about.
The little conference room we were crammed into almost reminded me of the one she once saw Hlaudi Motsoeneng holding forth in. But unlike Hlaudi’s rant, the BET event turned out to be a blast.
Nandi Madida was the host, and Madi found the glittering dress just okay, nothing to write home about unless you have ink to waste. The only thing that pleased Madi was that she wasn’t wearing the same old Masai neckpiece that she loves. At least no giraffe will be filing a lawsuit this week.
Madi’s eyes of course rolled into the back of her head when she saw Babes, Miss Carbon Dioxide herself, in her pink hair glory, dressed like she was about to board a taxi to Tembisa, with a huge military jacket that looked like she was hiking in Antarctica. Love, it wasn’t snowing. Khaya Mthethwa was his holy self, yapping to anyone who cared to listen about his new gospel show that’s coming up on BET. Yawn.
Madi finds it so hilarious how all the failed pop artists run to the gospel genre.
Madi left early but she will say this: Beyoncé and Babes Wodumo mentioned in the same award show is the worst tragedy since Jessica Nkosi’s stint on Our Perfect Wedding. Ridiculous!
