On Monday, on his Podcast, MacG showed his other side, a man who accepts when he makes mistakes.
He apologises and invites Minnie to join the podcast to clarify their differences.
'I want to apologise, first and foremost, to all the female chillers, and women in general in SA, I might have offended with that comment. That was not the intention. We never say things to offend people.' MacG apologised.
'I want to extend an invite to Minnie Dlamini to the show. You are more than welcome to come. This started on the podcast; let's end it there. She said some things, I said some things. Let's squash it once and for all,' he finished, inviting Minnie.
They left fans talking after Maphepha Ndaba shared the news of MacG's apology to Minnie Dlamini.
@sibalkhulu__asande: 'You guys are worried about MacG's apology, but you are not concerned about how Minnies' case made it to Parliament officials and had more potential of being addressed before CweCwes.'
@Mowele Shai 'The apologies we've been getting today are just take it or leave it'
@Nozipho Lusekho Jantjies 'I hope it's the last time you mention her name.'
@MamaKa Mbali 'We believe you, MacG, and we hope Minnie does come through .. She also said some bad things; we can't turn a blind eye to that. So they need to talk and move on.'

Friends and colleagues pay tribute to TV-film star Presley Chweneyagae
PRETORIA - The passing of Oscar-winning actor Presley Chweneyagae has left a void in the South African entertainment industry and among fans worldwide. The 40-year-old actor, affectionately known as "Cobra", died unexpectedly last week. A wave of tributes and memories followed on social media. A formal memorial service at the State Theatre in Pretoria brought together friends, family, colleagues, and industry insiders to honour Chweneyagae and his legacy. Attendees shared heartfelt memories, emotional tributes and stirring performances that celebrated Presley's impactful career. Actress Terry Pheto, who starred alongside Presley in her debut film, Tsotsi, recounted their early days working together. 'We were just kids back then, full of dreams,' she said. 'Presley carried the weight of our story with an intensity that took everyone's breath away. His brilliance propelled my career to unimaginable heights. Being part of Tsotsi opened doors I didn't even know existed. I'll never forget during the Oscar press tour when a journalist asked Presley if he would consider changing his name to make it easier for Hollywood, without hesitation, he said, 'If Hollywood can say Arnold Schwarzenegger, they can say Presley Chweneyagae.'' Renowned film director Gavin Hood praised Chweneyagae's dignity, decency, and humanity. 'Presley showcased South African talent to the world,' Hood said. 'He walked into darkness and found light, demonstrating what South Africans can do when they collaborate. He embodied the spirit of resilience and excellence. Rest in peace, Presley.' Hood emphasised how the actor's performances reflected the potential of South African storytelling. 'He showed the world not only what our cinema could be but what we as a nation are capable of when we unite.' The memorial served as a testament to Presley Chweneyagae's impact and the deep admiration he garnered among his peers. As the industry and fans mourn the loss, his legacy lives on through his unforgettable performances and the doors he opened for future generations of South African artists. By Tshenolo Khaile

Carte Blanche is a South African investigative journalism television series that airs on M-Net every Sunday at 19:00. Its first episode aired on 21 August 1988 and over the last 34-plus years has earned credibility among South African viewers for its investigation into corruption, consumer issues, and current events.

Next Stay Close ✕ The weight of the season's events has profoundly impacted her. 'While I cannot say much right now, I do want to set the record straight about one thing: the graphic sexual photo surrounding the events in Episode 5. That photo was not me,' she asserted, creating a ripple of confusion and concern among fans and cast alike. Eady clarified that she had only recently seen the controversial image and expressed her shock upon realising it did not feature her. 'I was made aware of the photo being presented at the event, and based on what I was told, I assumed that it was somehow a photo of me - which is why I reacted in the way that I did,' she explained. This revelation not only sheds new light on her dramatic reaction but also inadvertently shifts some focus back to Moore, whose departure from the series has left a significant void. I'm disappointed to not be a part of the #RHOA 16 reunion taping today. Please know I take full accountability for my actions and deeply apologize to all those affected including Brittney, the cast, crew, guests and viewers. I look forward to seeing you all back on Bravo soon. — KENYA MOORE (@KenyaMoore) June 5, 2025
