AKA, Pearl Thusi and Zahara make headlines

We know sometimes you have too much going on over the weekend; weddings, funerals and other things, we have compiled a summary of the entertainment news you might have missed.


Robert Marawa and Pearl Thusi’s relationship flourishing

According to reports, Robert Marawa has introduced his radio presenter girlfriend Pearl Thusi to his family. Apparently, Marawa intends to pay lobola and has put a ring on it. A source close to the couple told the Daily Sun Marawa’s parents like Thusi. We are happy for the couple, Marawa deserves some good news in his life after the baby mama drama accusations earlier this year. We hope everything goes well and they finally tie the knot.

AKA wins big in Dallas

In the past few weeks, it seemed the world was crumbling for outspoken and controversial AKA after affair allegations with Bonang, Anatii’s beat on Composure. To top it off, Cassper Nyovest released a diss track, with AKA as the subject of course. AKA went quiet on Twitter for some time, only coming online to tweet about his nominations at the AFRIMMAs. In the end, hard work paid off; AKA bagged two awards for Best Male and Best Collaboration. He tweeted that this was a moment for only his fans. Congratulations AKA! You deserve it.

JR slams claims on being AKA’s ghost writer

Still on AKA, Nyovest in his diss track Dust to Dust implied that Hip hop star and producer, JR, is AKA’s ghost writer. JR has however rubbished the claims that it was him who wrote Congratulate. The Make the Circle Bigger hit maker took to Twitter to have his say on the implications made by Nyovest. He pointed out that AKA wrote the majority of the track.

Zahara is not pregnant

So, rumour had it that Zahara was pregnant. This is the most recent allegation, apart from the alcohol and house repossession one. Zahara has however denied the rumours on CliffCentral, saying she isn’t pregnant. We wonder when the rumour mill will leave Zahara alone, she has just released her new album Country Girl, which is doing well by the way as it apparently went platinum in less than 24 hours.

Gigaba’s wife in alleged Instagram feud

Home Affairs Minister Malusi Gigaba’s wife, Noma, is alleged to have had a heated Instagram fight with Buhle Mkize, a fashionista, who claims Gigiba has been pursuing her. According to screenshots of the conversation, it appears that an Instagram account allegedly belonging to Gigaba’s wife under the name “Mrs Gigabyte” accused Mkhize of going after Gigaba, and things escalated when she called Buhle a “prostitute”. Whether Mr Gigaba really pursued Buhle, we will never know. We can only hope things get sorted out soon.

Rapulana Seiphemo in assault allegations

Rapulana Seiphemo, Generations: The Legacy actor allegedly gave a fan, Pfarelo Masindi, a giant wack after he asked for a picture with him.
Masindi confirmed to Sunday World that Seiphemo allegedly clapped him at News Cafe last Saturday. He also added that he didn’t open a case against the accomplished actor because one of Seiphemo’s friends apologised on his behalf. Assault allegations seem to follow the actor everywhere he goes. We can only hope they don’t land him in prison as it would be a real loss to the entertainment industry.
