Maditaba: red carpet hits and misses
MADI started her week irritated. Why on earth is the Mandla and Lexi reality show back on our screens? It’s not like much has improved. Lexi is still irrelevant and jobless, and poor Mandla is still giggling through it all. Can someone please circulate a petition to have this show put on ice? It’s just plain ridiculous. Speaking of all things ridiculous, Madi had the pleasure of attending the Ridiculousness Africa launch in Monte Casino last week. Yes, it’s another show that we stole from overseas. The event itself was very well organised. Madi was impressed. The presenters will be the not-so-funny Thomas Gumede and miss “That’s not my vagina”, Boity Thulo. This should be interesting. Everyone knows that Boity can’t really do anything, so Madi can’t wait to see how she tackles this show. Good luck guys.
The talk of the weekend was the YOU Spectacular Awards held at Emperors Palace on Saturday.
Madi was of course there to bring you the red carpet juice on who looked stunning, and who should perhaps fire their osteoporosis-striken seamstress. Let’s delve right in. The first person who caught Madi’s eye was the talentless but sexy Thembi Seete.
Poor Thembi looked 15 years older in that outfit.
Sis Thembi, that dress is something that Shado Twala herself would look at and say: “I’ll save it for my 95th birthday next month.” It was too old for you, love. The make-up and hair was deplorable too; very Mercy Phakela. Sexy girl, bad stylist.
Madi never thought she would say this, but Dineo Moeketsi blew me away. Absolutely stunning! She looked like Beyoncé arriving for some gala dinner in Vegas. Absolute perfection.
You have earned a “most improved” award from Madi, girl. Keep it up.
Gosh, Boity rocked up wearing some orange mess. She always seems to get it wrong on the red carpet, it doesn’t matter when or where!
Madi is tired of her red carpet sewerage couture, honestly. Girl, hire a stylist, I beg you.
Jessica Nkosi, who walked away with the best actress award, was also her usual self: boring.
Minnie Dlamini, we need to talk. Firstly, congratulations on your sexiest woman award. Please be glad Madi was not on the judging panel.
Secondly, girl, what on earth were you wearing? That short black and gold number was ill-fitting and made you look bigger than you already are. A little tailoring here and there, (or holding your stomach in) would have made a huge difference. Plus, the black lip did not do you justice. Girl, that look was a miss. Bathong, did Madi see a bit of weight gain on Thapelo Mokoena? Abuti Thapelo, Madi is so glad you recovered well after your accident, but I’m sure you can eat solids now, so let’s go easy on the “lesheleshele” porridge hle. We want our sexy Thapelo back. AKA and Bonang completely knocked it out of the park. They looked so amazing, Madi had to ask one of the cleaners for a mop to wipe her drool off the floor. Bonang looked ethereal, like the angel Gabriel’s PA or something! You guys definitely deserved the favourite couple award.
Madi is so tired of Emtee. Once again, he rocked up looking like he was selling vegetables at Bree Street taxi rank. Abuti, please make an effort.
You may have won the rising star award, but can your fashion sense also rise?
