In our third quarterly IOL Entertainment magazine, we look at the world of celebrities as they find themselves embroiled in controversies and, in some cases, faced the very real possibility of being cancelled or are clawing their way out of the doghouse, so to speak.
When it comes to celebrities, public rows are par for the course. But the adulation of fans, and the industry, by and large, has a ceiling. In this era of #MeToo and GBV-awareness, celebrities are held accountable for what they say and do.
And it doesn’t matter how much clout you have in the industry, if you cross a line, you could very well be crossed off everyone’s list.
This issue looks at Somizi Mhlongo going from media darling to outcast, why Bujy Bikwa’s physical altercation with Boity Thulo wasn’t an LGBTQI+ issue, it was a man issue, Bonang Matheba’s beef with her former management agency, and more.
