HThey all complain about the attacks and that it's unfair the way we write about them in newspapers. But what do we do when we all hear things like Hlomla: another baby, Brickz: another baby (twins nogal) and so on. When you become a public figure your life and the only private space you have is in your house because outside you have to behave and set an example for anyone and everyone who looks up to you.

HTake for example Zola7, who has done so well for himself and other people. He's extremely influential and the next thing you hear is another girl claims she's pregnant by him. He knew he was not the father but what message does it send to everyone else? "He's not condomising ... " What does that mean? Half a million fans will probably do the same and not see anything wrong with it.

HI've never had a problem with Pabi Moloi. I think she's hot and after all those articles about her weight she did something about it. She has lost a few and looks even hotter.

HSo the camera shows your face and everyone says you are in the picture. We publish the story and you deny it. It damages your profile and given that it might not have been you in the car having sex at a club, there should be other ways of proving your innocence. Remember Sphiwe Mtshali and that scandal?

HSo Mandoza gets into a fight with everyone and in all of it he is never wrong. He's always acting in self defence, court case after court case. What are we trying to say? Are we saying Mandoza is never wrong? Okay. Let's apologise. Sorry Godoba, it wasn't your fault. He started it and you just won the fight.

HKamogelo Mampe goes on about her break-up with hip-hop star Bongani Fassie and that she's seeing someone else now. We all know about your fight with some girl at a club over SuperSport United's Sboniso Gaxa. What we really want to know is which of the Bicker Boys from Pretoria are you dating?

HIt's good to hear Dineo Ranaka back on air with her partner in crime Chilli M after a very long leave. What refreshment babes, we missed you. Chilli M have you paid the papgeld?

HOur deepest condolences go to Noni Gasa and her family for the loss of their two-year-old niece.

HTime flies but memories never fade. Today would have been the late diva Lebo Mathosa's, left, birthday. Happy birthday, we miss you and your innocence and vitality.
