Here's a glimpse at some of the stories:

Kefilwe Mabote back at it

Kefilwe has shot up trends lists again after burning another luxury item. 

She took to her Instagram stories to share a video of her setting fire to her Christian Dior tote bag.

“That moment you realise the 'gift' was a gateway, a soul tie sitting pretty in your wardrobe. Burnt it like the altar of Baal. I refuse to carry spiritual baggage dressed as sentiment. If it wasn't sealed in covenant it has no place in my life.”

Love is in the air

Metro FM's Mpumi Mlambo has confirmed she is in a relationship with club DJ Fistaz Mixwell and is over the moon.

Rumours have been doing the rounds that the two are romantically linked after they spent Christmas together in December.

Minnie Dlamini responds to MacG's apology

Minnie responded to MacG's apology on his podcast. She also revealed she received an apology from the Podcast and Chill legal team. 

The media personality said she is exploring her options to take legal action against him for his derogatory comments about her.  

“Over the past few weeks, I have watched in disbelief and deep pain as my name, body and dignity were dragged through the mud of public discourse, triggered by the vile, humiliating and inexcusable comments made by Mukwevho on his podcast.

“This is not about ego, this is about systemic misogyny. While I have chosen not to dignify the specifics with a response, I must emphasise there is nothing entertaining or provocative about weaponising a woman's body for clout, commentary or so-called content. What occurred was not banter, it was a grotesque and deeply harmful violation of my dignity, humanity and constitutional rights as a woman.”

Lebo M's grand piano allegedly sold second-hand

Internationally acclaimed composer Lebo M is said to be devastated at the second-hand price for his grand piano.

It is alleged Lebo M was shocked to discover his estranged wife Pretty Samuels sold his multimillion-rand piano for R15,000 to a second-hand buyer.
