It looks like it’s a case of when one door closes another opens for actress Katlego Danke, who has revealed that she’s set to play the lead role in a new Mzansi Magic show, Gomora.

The news comes just days after she bid farewell to Isidingo.

Industry colleagues and Katlego’s fans were super excited for the actress, who said she was deeply grateful to be part of such a stellar cast and production.

“Deeply grateful to be part of this amazing new production. I’m honoured to be working with a stellar cast and crew and I can’t wait for you all to see it. New journey, new stories to be told. Let’s go!” Katlego said.

Earlier this week, she wrote a brief but heartfelt note bidding goodbye to Isidingo.

“Its time to say goodbye. Not easy but here we are! We have had quite a journey, met lovely characters that have made homes in our hearts. But it’s time to let go and say goodbye,” she said.

The drama’s cast is star-studded with some of the very best Mzansi has to offer in terms of talent, like Connie Chiume, Themba Ndaba, Thembi Seete and Zolisa Xaluva.

It looks like Mzansi is in for an entertaining ride. Gomora will start on Mzansi Magic on March 31.

Here’s How Much Sarah Langa Allegedly Got From Estranged Husband Who Dumped Her Over Instagram Obsession
Here’s How Much Sarah Langa Allegedly Got From Estranged Husband Who Dumped Her Over Instagram Obsession! In the past few months we’ve seen Sarah Langa serving traveling goals with her girlfriends making people wonder of all was well in her marriage.

It turns out according to Sunday World, the social media influencer reportedly split from millionaire husband Jehan Mackay. The publication reports that it was Mackay who dumped Langa in September 2019, only two years and 10 months after getting married.

A close source to the former couple told Sunday World that Mackay reportedly called it quits because of Sarah’s obsession with social media. They had allegedly tried couple’s therapy for four months before pulling the plug. The estranged husband reportedly moved out of their marital house in Bryanston, Joburg, in September and gave Sarah until December to move out, which she did. She reportedly moved into a place just around the corner from the marital home.

“The marriage relationship between the parties has reached such a state of disintegration that there is no reasonable prospect of their marriage being restored and their marriage has accordingly irretrievably broken down in that the parties are incompatible and share no common interests,” reads the summons as seen by Sunday World which also states constant disharmony and a lack of communication between them as another reason for the divorce.

According to the publication, the couple was married out of community of property but Mackay offered Langa R1-million for each year of their marriage within six months of the finalization of their divorce. Since their marriage only existed for two years and 10 months, he would only pay Langa R2,833,33.00

Meanwhile Sarah has continued living her best influencer life posting her male friends now that she’s a single lady.

A collision that occurred on the N4 toll road in Hectorspruit between a truck and a minibus taxi has left seven people dead on Tuesday at around 23:30.

It is suspected that the driver of the taxi may have lost control before crashing into the side of the truck.

Eight more people were seriously injured.

Various ambulance services responded to the scene and the injured were rushed to nearby Shongwe and Tonga hospitals as well as Mediclinic Nelspruit where they are receiving attention.

The injured include the driver of the truck.

The taxi was reportedly travelling from Johannesburg to Mozambique when the crash took place.

The victims were all from the taxi and they include the driver. The deceased are four women and three men.

The cause of the crash is still unknown and the investigation is under way.

According to Mpumalanga Community Safety, Security and Liaison spokesperson Moeti Mmusi, MEC Gabisile Shabalala was deeply saddened by this latest crash and appealed on motorists to use the road safely.

“Transportation of goods and people is the backbone of our economy and therefore more caution should be applied by the drivers at all times so that deadly crashes are drastically reduced,” Shabalala said.

She added that the crashes were afflicting unbearable pain and untold suffering to many families. Therefore, motorists should play their part and always obey the rules, Shabalala said.

The MEC also bemoaned the enormous cost that these crashes, which are mostly avoidable, were costing the economy.

“Billlions of rand [are] lost annually to deal with the aftermath of these deadly crashes which are mostly preventable,” she said.

She wished those who were injured a speedy recovery.

The Road Traffic Management Corporation’s (RTMC) State of Road Safety Report: Calendar for 2018 found that minibuses accounted for 9% of crashes, and most collisions happened on Saturdays (25%) and Sundays (22%).

The RTMC calculated the total collision cost at R142.95bn.

Being a father to two daughters, veteran actor Menzi Ngubane has revealed that he makes sure he gives them the right guidance so they make the right life decisions. Menzi shared how he is raising his daughters, Siya, 22, and Ziyanda, 11, during a recent motivational talk in Tweeling, Free State.

The former Isibaya actor shared a video of his motivational speech on Instagram, highlighting that, “as a parent, I hide nothing from them. I tell them about the phases they will go through. He also touched on how he makes sure he teaches his girls to have high standards when it comes to men.

I always tell my girls to look at what I do in this house. Look at the places I take you, because I don’t want a boy to promise to take you to Sun City as if you’ve never been.

“I take my girls to Sun City, Durban and Cape Town because if there’s a boy who comes and promises to take them there, they will tell them that my dad took me there. So, come up with something new.

Speaking to young boys, Menzi said it is important for them to choose what they want to be . This thing of ‘the following suit’ because of the kind of people you look [up to], who are doing wrong, will only leave you lost. You need to choose what you want to be in life.

As a public figure, it will really be a good thing if you let those who look up to you get to know a bit more about who you are, like, your true self behind that famous Name of yours. Whether it’s direct to her fans through social media or in an interview, Ntando Duma is an open book. Surprisingly there still are many things we don’t know about her.

The multi-talented star recently took to social media sharing ten fun facts about her that she has never shared before and we’ve to say some of them are surprising.

Check out these things you might not have known about the beauty:

1. She doesn’t drink alcohol (never have)
2. She’s the last born child
3. She’s got an obsession over a good set of teeth
4. She dislike her freckles but learning to embrace them
5. She’s obsessed with her forehead
6. She has matching birthmarks with her daughter on both their backs and faces
7. She did Media studies at Boston Media House
8. She looooooooves flowers and roses
9. She sleeps naked
10. She loves being in her space (home) when not working or occupied.

A lot of her fans have for a long time been waiting for such content because they were curious of whether if she is sealed or open, Lol!

Mihlali Ndamase took a trip down memory lane and gave the people what they wanted when she got candid about losing her v!rginity.

The popular vlogger and influencer shared the story of her first time with her inquisitive fans in the latest vid on her YouTube channel.

“One time I flew to Durban to go visit him and uh it happened. I don’t how or what to say about how I felt. It was really sore, it was painful as f***. Also, this guy was really tall, he was huge, so it was like… big.

“And I also feel like, during the whole thing there wasn’t necessarily any attempt to help me feel comfortable. So it was obvious the experience was very painful, it was excruciating.”

Mihlali said everything was tense because she wasn’t really comfortable but she “sucked it up” because the dude was her man and he’d previously spoken about how he wasn’t trying to be in a relationship that didn’t have “intimacy” or s.e.xual intercourse.

She said in retrospect, she realised she was “under pressure” because she liked the guy so much, but she will make sure to tell her children never to succumb to that kind of pressure for anyone.

“This is something that will also help me one day when I have kids to have a conversation with my daughter to say ‘don’t compromise yourself to cater to somebody else’s needs.’ Not to put herself in a situation where she isn’t necessarily comfortable.”

Watch the video below:

Since announcing that she and husband Khulu Skenjana were separating, actress Mona Monyane has revealed she was choosing her wellbeing over anything. After four years of marriage to her actor husband, Mona announced over the weekend that she and Khulu had parted ways. Taking fans by surprise, Mona urged the public to respect them during this testing time. Respect was not the only thing Mona asked for as she also reflected on the sacrifices women made which led to them not putting themselves first.

In a series of tweets, Mona wrote: “As women we need to stop negotiating whether we deserve to put ourselves first, to not tolerate nonsense, to centre our happiness. The joy of the man you choose to love should not take priority over your own wellbeing. You are equally entitled to live your best life. Touching on women not putting themselves first, the actress added that men, on the other hand, had the capabilities to care for their wives and children but could only do so if they chose to.

“Men are nurturing, caring and gentle naturally. Look at how they care for their cars, shoes and accessories. Look at how they care for their male friends. If they could simply redirect that same energy and commitment to their wives and children they would realise this too.”

As women we need to stop negotiating whether or not we deserve to put ourselves first, to not tolerate nonsense, to centre our happiness. The joy of the man you choose to love should not take priority over your own wellbeing. You are equally entitled to live YOUR best life.
