LIFE ’ S SO BUSY IN THE DIZZY SOCIAL WHIRL
MADITABA is very cantankerous this week! What’s with this mud-wrestling match between Sophie Ndaba and Keith Harrington? No guys, this is not right!
I mean Madi was just minding her own Close Corporation having an espresso, when she bumped into a ghastly picture of a toothless Sophie with dentures in hand!
This was followed by some nasty comment from Keith about how she’s trying to ruin his life and he’s firing back, and that ’ s why he published the pic.
Really, Keith, how very childish. So what if sis Sophie wears
dentures? She’s been around forever, and was probably Shaka’s wedding planner ... Surely she can’t be expected to still have the same teeth? We love
sis Sophie,
and no horrific picture will change that.
Okay, moving on ... Madi attended the first episode of
Strictly Come Dancing at the SABC studios recently. Eish, she doesn’t do the sitting in an audience thing too well. Needed the bathroom when some pot-bellied director oompie commanded: “Sit!”
Yoh! Ever heard of powdering one’s nose, sir? Anyway, let me give you my predictions of who’s hot, who’s not, and who should be chucked out like a bucket of wee!
My favourite horse-faced girl, Connie Ferguson, was absolutely stunning. Just wish she’d relax a bit, which was understandable because she went first.
But miss rigid chicken judge Tebogo Kgobokoe gave her grief. But the ironing-board stiff look is not hot. Relax, girl. Madi will give you one more chance.
Kuli Roberts was piping hot, but was given hell about her footwork not being on point. Oh, get over it, judges. Personality over footwork. Isn’t that
how plus-sized HHP took home the title?
Speaking of plus-sized, L’Vovo needs to go, geez! I mean if this was some random cheap music video featuring skanky Chomee, I’d understand. This is Strictly
Come Dancing, darling. Sorry. Lalla Hirayama was gorgeous. Just wish she’d spared me the Japanese gabbing with judge Michael Wentink. Sounded like a scene from
Memoirs of a Geisha.
Lalla’s dirty boyfriend must have been wondering if they were exchanging phone numbers. Madi bumped into fashion designer Gert Johan Coetzee who I expected to exclaim: “Please sir, can I have some more?” with his Oliver Twist look.
He so desperately wanted to have a picture taken with presenter Pabi Moloi, who he dressed for the evening, and was fuming when he found out that she had left already. Pabi dear, the man gave you a gorgeous dress. The least you could do is give him some cred, ungrateful diva!
Madi swallowed a sequin, and that’s when she knew it was time to leave!
The busy bee attended another event: e.tv’s Ekasi and Mzansi love stories launch held at Moyo at Zoo Lake. The host for the evening was the gorgeous Khanyi Mbau, who looked absolutely stunning. Kind of reminiscent of an Egyptian mail order bride, but I loved the look.
Madi was starting to wonder if Ms Mbau had been reduced to a Mzansi bank account holder after bumping into her previously looking like a cheap bridesmaid, but she completely redeemed herself. She did an amazing job as MC.
Saw a dashing Zone 14 ’ s Carol Behane, sporting a gorgeous leather wrap-around dress. Very Sharon Stone in
Basic Instinct. She’s stunning. Just wish she’d move out of her mother’s back room in Diepkloof, or fix the house at least. The BMW parked in front of it is embarrassing love.
Also saw Xoli Zondi, who played the rural psycho in
Generations . She’s told Madi how it’s been hard for her to get laid since she played Zodwa and she’s relieved to soon be playing a demure, calm girl in Mzansi love stories. Demure and rural go very well together love.
Also bumped into Leroy Gopal.So cute! I’d marry him but my mother won’t accept lobolo in Zim dollars...
