Flymotion is beefing with Felix Hlophe

Flymotion has threatened to dish all the deets on Felix.

“He mustn't talk about me as if I'm nothing, he mustn't push it. Soon I am going to talk about him from his childhood until now. I'm going to go 'Katt Williams' on him. He must continue but the gloves are off and people will be shocked. He must respect me, that's all,” he told TshisaLIVE.

“Beef is healthy but this one isn't. Felix has got a serious vendetta against me. I'd host a comedy show and he'd end up hosting his comedy show on the same night, splitting the audience just to spite me. [That is] humiliation at its best. I am going to tell everybody about him soon, that he must be on the lookout for.”

LaConco gets real about her past relationship with Jacob Zuma

Nonkanyiso “LaConco” Conco got candid about her relationship with former president Zuma, which the couple managed to keep private for two years before the public found out about it.

In a series of Instagram stories, the reality TV star and media personality recounted memories they shared together, from lobola negotiations to the end of their love story.

LaConco recalled how her life in 2016 comprised trips to the airport and hotels every week where she would sometimes see Zuma for 30 minutes.

Gugu Gumede reveals the secret behind her weight loss.

The actress and director made a comeback on her YouTube channel on Monday, saying she underwent vertical sleeve gastrectomy surgery on January 29.

“After losing 30kg in four months, I'm sharing my experience with weight loss surgery,” she said.

In the video, Gugu reflected on gaining weight after she stopped breastfeeding and could not control her intake which put her health at risk.

“I got to this place where I was unhappy. I was unhappy with the weight and with how I felt physically. I didn't feel good, my feet would hurt. I would go to bed at night and my heart would be pounding so much, and I was scared because I had high blood pressure. I knew I was at high risk of becoming a chronic patient,” she said.

Leeroy denies making amends with ex-girlfriend Mihlali

Businessman Leeroy Sidambe refuses to comment on reports of him rekindling his relationship with influencer Mihlali Ndamase.

A picture of the former couple, with the caption “Forever Yena! Mihlali allegedly goes back to Leeroy Sidambe”, circulated on social media.  

Speaking to TshisaLIVE, Leeroy poured water on the speculation.

“My relationship reports always dent my business and it's unfair to my children and family,” he told TshisaLIVE.

“Guys, can we at least stop reporting on my love life? You know every time you guys don't give me a breather it's not OK. I am not dating Mihlali nor are we back together.”
