The buzz on the beat

H It seems that Arthur is not fighting Somizi only, but has now become involved in a fight with DJ Cleo and I can already imagine what's going to come out of that.

H It seems that Arthur is not fighting Somizi only, but has now become involved in a fight with DJ Cleo and I can already imagine what's going to come out of that.

We are talking about stubborn people here.

I have a feeling this will go to the streets because, according to our 999 source, Arthur has recorded a song that's meant to insult Cleo.

So I wonder what Cleo is up to in the studio right now.

H I have to say that Muvhango really means business when it says that if your performance is not up to scratch you're fired.

Getting rid of people who don't perform well has never been the answer.

The show holds workshops for its cast so I'm sure it can do some training for these poor amateur actors. Look at Diopelo Maphathe. Since the Muvhango saga what is she doing? Nothing.

Another one to bite the dust is the actress who played Agnes. She has been fired because she couldn't improve her Tshivenda. Ouch, I wonder who's next.

H I'm afraid of writing anything about Mara Louw because one might just be sued. But someone needs to tell her that Louis Vuitton doesn't make caps, as far as my fashion knowledge stretches. And she needs to get rid of the one she's always wearing. It really sends the wrong message to everyone else wearing one. Let's not promote fakes, unless hers was specially designed by Louis Vuitton.

H Speaking of court cases, the country's star, the Oscar winner, the one who made South Africa proud, is the same person who was arrested for driving with a fake licence - Presley Chueneyagae. The question is, should we still be idolising these fraudulent celebrities?

Why did Presley succumb to pressure to get a fake licence? Was he not patient enough to be like the rest of us and get the proper thing? I've secured my driver's test and chances are I'm going to get my licence before he does. Haha. H I was watching YoTv and I remembered that there was once a group of presenters consisting of Mandisa Nakana, Sphiwe Mtshali, Carly and Sypfo, who now all have children, except for Sphiwe. People grow old very quickly. Word has it that Sade is also leaving the kids' show soon. I think it's time for her to venture into something else. Oh yes, and whatever happened to Byron? H What has happened to Wright Ngubeni's case? He was arrested in connection with a criminal act. Does anyone know the latest on the case?H Thandeka of Generations fame threw a dinner party last week to celebrate her birthday. After she left the popular soapie it seemed that M-Net was going to pay her well. I looked around for her BMW X3 and didn't see it. Could she have been lying to us? Where's the flashy townhouse in Melrose?H The SABC might be faced with the challenge of replacing its prominent faces on the new news channel that is set to take off in March this year. Already four of its news anchors have resigned, including John Perlman and Nikiwe Bikitsha. The grape- vine says Siki Mgabadeli is also leaving.
