‘I have nothing to hide' – Her Majesty ahead of The Mommy Club reunion

News2420-05-2025

We've seen the drama.
We've seen the explosive conversations.
We've witnessed friendships form and break.
And we've judged the mommies of Joburg.
Now it's time for them to face each other and for us to sip on some tea.
Hosted by Ntombee Ngcobo-Mzobe, the reunion promises to answer all the burning questions and get to the bottom of every storyline that happened on and off the screen.
The first part of the reunion will premiere on 17 May and the second part on 24 May, exclusively on Showmax.
Ahead of The Mommy Club reunion, here's how the cast is feeling.
Hermajesty:
'I'm stepping into this reunion with nothing to hide. It's time to put everything on the table, the truths, the tension, and every unspoken word. There's a lot that needs to be unpacked.'
Mrs J:
'I would like to use the reunion as an opportunity to address what needs to be addressed fully. I couldn't believe some of the comments made behind my back. As mothers, I hope we can iron out our differences and see if there's a way forward.'
Mrs Sande:
'I'm genuinely looking forward to this reunion. The streets want answers: why was I so spicy? Well, I'm here to give them. This season, I found my voice, and I have no regrets. I'm coming with an open heart and an open mind but I'm not holding back.'
Noksie:
'There's a calmness in me I didn't expect because I know my truth. I've been painted a certain way, but now, I'm taking my power back. Some people owe me apologies, and while I'm ready to own my part, I won't ignore the intentional hurt that was sent my way. I feel stronger, more grounded and ready for anything.'
Vuyi:
'I'm walking into this reunion with clarity and conviction. I'm in good spirits, but I'm not here to sugar-coat anything. My goal is to hold myself accountable and expect the same from everyone else. There's been too much deflecting. It's time we all own the roles we played in the chaos.'

Transgender advocate and celeb traditional healer Gogo Manzini has died

Gogo Manzini, real name Tyra Sindane, has died. According to a statement, she died on Thursday after a short illness. After making headlines for her transformative surgeries earlier this year, she celebrated self-expression and empowered others. Celebrity traditional healer and socialite Gogo Manzini, real name Tyra Sindane, has died. According to a statement shared with News24, Manzini died Thursday, 5 June, after a short illness. 'Tyra was a cherished friend, colleague, family member, public figure and mom whose presence touched the lives of so many,' the statement read. 'Tyra will be remembered for her passion for healing others, unwavering kindness, dedication to her community and the joy she brought to everyone around her.' 'At this time, we ask for privacy and respect as her family and loved ones navigate this incredibly difficult moment.' Further information about Manzini's memorial and funeral service details will be shared 'in due course.' Earlier in the year, Manzini underwent several transformative surgeries, including a Brazilian butt lift, tummy tuck, liposuction, rhinoplasty, fox eye left and breast augmentation, in Turkey. Speaking to News24 in January, she said: 'Gym was not working for me and my shape – or I'm too lazy. I love clothes and fashion, but I found that clothes were just not sitting right on me. So, I decided if the body won't come to me, I need to fetch it. Everyone has something they wish to fix or adjust, but they are not brave enough. I am brave enough.' She also spoke about how proudly and boldly living as a transgender woman. 'I share my story and journey with people as I know there is someone out there who can relate to my struggles. I want to say that if you are uncomfortable with a certain body type, change it,' Manzini said. 'God has given you the authority to change what you don't like, whether body, sexuality, gender or even a job. This is not just a procedure for me, but a statement.'

J.K. Simmons to Lead MGM+ Period Crime Drama THE WESTIES — GeekTyrant

J.K. Simmons is heading back into the dark and dangerous world of crime, this time as the lead in MGM+'s new period drama The Westies , and it sounds like a perfect fit. Known for playing characters with unshakable presence and intensity in projects like Whiplash , Oz , and Invincible , Simmons will take on the role of Eamon Sweeney, a brutal yet charismatic boss of a Hell's Kitchen crime gang in the early 1980s. The Westies is co-created by Chris Brancato ( Narcos , Godfather of Harlem ) and Michael Panes, and it drops viewers into a volatile era when the Jacob Javitz Convention Center was rising, and so were the criminal opportunities. The Irish-American gang known as the Westies might've been dwarfed in size by the Italian mafia, but they compensated with brutality and street smarts, carving out a dangerous slice of Manhattan's underworld. Simmons' character, Eamon, is described as having "old-school charm and neighborhood loyalty" that barely conceal "fierce criminal ambition and calculated brutality." It sounds like a tailor-made role for an actor who can flip from warmth to menace in a heartbeat. 'J.K. Simmons is one of the finest actors working today,' said Michael Wright, head of MGM+. 'His authenticity and intensity bring an invaluable quality to this complex and exhilarating story, and we can't wait to see him bring this unforgettable character to life.' Brancato echoed that excitement, adding, 'J.K. Simmons doesn't just play authority — he radiates it. We're lucky to have an actor who brings the gravitas and danger that this world demands.' Production on the eight-episode series kicks off in July in Toronto. No word yet on a premiere date, but The Westies is shaping up to be a must-watch for fans of gritty, character-driven crime dramas. Source: Deadline
