Last night, we made our way to the Zar nightclub to witness Kenny Kunene's launch of his new reality show - So What. The premiere was topped with the preview of the first episode of the reality show.
The Sushi King served us unlimited Sushi as was expected and eish, it was a problem for some of us who are not fans of this "in food." Fortunately there were a couple of platters with "normal" people's food and for that I was thankful.
You know how the Sushi King rolls - he goes big all the way. We were met with complimentary drinks which the host re-iterated were EXPENSIVE. sifelani Oookay...
There was an open bar for most of the event, well... until the club was "opened to the public." It was a black tie event afterall so if you weren't dressed to the nines, you were gonna pay for your drinks. lol. Funny I should say that because I didn't read the invite and came in jeans. I really felt like a typical darkie. The shame **hides**
THE ANNOUNCEMENT
Gayton McKenzie, who's Kenny Kunene's BFF and jail buddy, opened up the program of the day and handed over to the man of the moment, Sushi King. Tjo, Mr Sushi was speaking words of wisdom, which was rather odd coming from him and Kuli Roberts was in the background finishing off his sentences. Oookay
As much as the show will focus on Kenny Kunene's life, he has a cast which includes Gayton McKenzie, Moloko McKenzie (no one was prepared to explain how the two are related. Moloko also spotted a wedding ring. I wonder...) also Kieran Lindeque and Riaan Jonker.
King of Sushi told us the show is for those women who stop him at traffic lights and thank him for inspiring them to allow their husbands to eat Sushi of their bodies. He said the show was strictly not for party animals but for party human beings because party animals are violent. Hehehe...
SO WHAT'S FIRST EPISODE PREVIEW
I captured some moments from the show:
The show was nothing like I expected. I seriously thought it was going to be over the top but we were all pleasantly surprised.
From the first episode it looks like this will be the first Mzansi show that's not scripted, unless the cast are professional actors.
Moloko works in the Zar empire offices. I also spotted Dj Fistaz Mizwell and the original Sunday World Shashwi, Sonia.
A huge part of the episode focuses on Jacob Zuma's daughter, Duduzile's wedding
Aaaaaw... There's such a hilarious scene showing some little girl losing her mind over this car. Kenny and Gayton also stock up booze worth R250 000 and load it into this fine machine. Yep, you read correctly. It's a quarter of a million worth of booze.
Kenny Kunene and his date for Dudu's wedding. She's late for the wedding and Kenny doesn't mince his words telling her off. Poor girl had to rush and Kenny even went into the room whilst she was dressing up. Ya ne...
This show is a definite must watch...
SPOTTED AT THE "SO WHAT" PREMIERE
Mirriam Ngomane. It's the first time I've seen her up close and she looks good.
The queen of fashion Uyanda Mbuli with Linda Moeketsi
Aaaaw... Bab' Khapela. What a wonderful man. We were chatting like we knew each other and he was so fun to chat to. I have great respect for him.
The stunning Basetsana Khumalo preferred to take the picture with me instead of having it all by herself. What an amazing and humble woman.
Maybe I didn't get the memo, but Nonhle Thema also insisted on taking the photo with me. Surprise! Surprise! She reads TVSA and she knows how critical yall are. Hehehe... I had to keep a straight face!
She was nothing like her crazy alter ego on Twitter. She was actually very nice but unfortunately... I will be publishing an article that relates to her next week and I refuse to edit it. lol. Seen here with Zar Online blogger
The night's main and only performer Ms Khanyi Mbau. She's got a stunning body #NoHomo. She spoke about the fact that she's still standing after her relationships with the madalas, Mandla and Theunis Crous.
And Guess what?????
He was there with the beautiful wifey, Primrose. I didn't know that Primrose was so sweet. We were in the lift with her going to the event and coincidentally, we left in the same lift. She's a really nice girl shame!
KHANYI MBAU'S PERFORMANCE
Man of the moment Kenny Kunene is a huge Biggie fan. He was dancing to his track here and doing the robot dance. In 2011 nogal.
Khanyi Mbau's performance. Shame she stole the spotlight from Kenny. She's such a great performer but I don't know about her vocal ability.
Just when I thought I was going to leave with no drama (Like really, Mzansi's Drama Kings and Queens were in one roo)...
THIS HAPPENED...
It all started with Kenny popping the champagne and pouring it all over Khanyi's body, then Khanyi screaming "Lick it off". The next thing she was on the floor and Kenny followed and touched her in places that ... eish, I can't even finish off.
Great event Kenny and e.tv!!!
