Diski Divas Wendy and Kat fired!

WAGs Wendy Parker and Kat Mohoadube have been axed from Mzansi Magic's reality low Diski Divas after the smackdown with fellow cast member Nonhle Ndala on Friday.

The catfight erupted during an interview on Kaya FM when they got into an argument over who deserves a place on the show. According to reports, the slapfest started after Wendy told Nonhle that she shouldn't be on the show because she's not a spouse to her famous man Andile Jali.

The slapping erupted, the DJs called for an emergency ad break and Nonhle laid assault charges against Wendy afterwards, saying Wendy smacked first. Wendy says it was the other way round.

And today Wendy and Kat discovered that they've slapped themselves out of a job. They've both been fired by the show's production company Connect TV and Mzansi Magic has released a statement saying how much the channel agrees with the decision. This from the statement:

Mzansi Magic confirms that whilst Diski Divas is an unscripted reality series, any unacceptable behaviour of cast members will not be tolerated.  We extend our appreciation to Kaya FM for their swift action and apologise that this incident occurred on their premises during what should have been a routine interview.

Wendy and Kat will appear in two more episodes while Nonhle will continue on.

We've asked Mzansi Magic for comment on why Wendy and Kat have been fired but not Nonhle and we've asked for an account of exactly what happened between them.

We've also asked about the rumours that Nonhle's been told to act to create drama for the show. We're waiting for their response - will keep you posted when we hear.

We'll ask them Mantoa_M

This response to our questions just in from Mzansi Magic...

“From our understanding of the events, the altercation between the three cast members resulted in Nonhle Ndala being physically struck and verbally abused by both parties. Ndala did not respond with violence and left the scene of the incident soon thereafter. Katlego Mohoaduba was on standby for the interview in case one of the ladies did not arrive on time. As the argument continued off air, Mohoaduba is said to have been involved.”

Mzansi Magic confirms that Diski Divas is an unscripted reality series."

(In response to our query about Nonhle being told to act. There's a big difference between a show being scripted and someone being told to act!)

@Mantoa_M This is all Mzansi Magic will say about it ...

"We will communicate new developments once finalised."

We've tried to ask Connect TV too but there's no-one available - we'll try again.

Extract from The Times:
Two 'Diski Divas' have been dropped from the television show after public outrage over a “staged fight”.

Diski Divas - a reality show about the wives‚ girlfriends and former girlfriends of local soccer players - was labelled fake after Bernard Parker’s wife‚ and Nonhle Ndala‚ Andile Jali’s girlfriend‚ were escorted from Kaya FM' s premises in Rosebank last week during their interview on Home Straight.

The Times today quoted radio show co-host and television personality Kuli Roberts as saying that the two pregnant WAGs‚ Parker and Ndala‚ had set up the incident because they were "desperate for content".

"They staged it all. Make-up artists‚ camera in studio‚ should have been a give-away, but to hurt my colleague is sick and demented, you talentless freaks." "I don't care what you Diski Divas do, don't include my mates.  Sotho was slapped repeatedly while trying to help Nonhle" tweeted Roberts.

Pleja!

We've just spoken to Connect TV about re-casting Kat and Wendy and they couldn't tell us anything more unfortunately:

"No decision has been made on the issue - it's something we'll have to come to a decision with the broadcaster on."

Could be they're terrified of divas now and feel safer if there are only three.
