Contrary to rumours, Kenny Kunene is not living in a friend’s garden cottage. The club-owner and so-called Sushi King made quite a show for the City Press newspaper, which printed a look into life at the “Kunene mansion”. Kunene, infamous for his antics at his ZAR clubs, seems to have a liking of the lifestyle led by Playboy founder Hugh Hefner, sporting not only his own embroidered jackets, but also a group of young females who live with him.

According to the City Press, Kunene claims he has up to fifteen women sharing his house, but most were away on the shoot as it is a university holiday period. The five or so ladies who did show up for the article and photoshoot say they love being with Kunene because he’s exciting and never dull. They also don’t mind sharing him and apparently use a voting system to get rid of girls who do not fit into Kunene’s ‘harem’.

“He just pushes everything to the limit,” said one girl, named Desiree. “You never restrict yourself."

"You can never get frustrated with Kenny. He's never boring. There's nothing negative to say, really. He respects all the girls the same way, all the time," said another girl called Fortunate.

Kunene apparently makes sure they stick to their studies - fail and you are kicked out of his mansion - and he also insists on regular HIV tests.

“I don't want to hear anyone saying: 'She failed because she was with Kenny',” said the lothario. “I'm very strict. When we go out, I don't want anything to happen to them because I'll get the blame.”
