Dear, oh dear. We don't like fights, scraps or altercations (Considering our stream of journalism we understand why this will be hard to believe, but there you have it). We like them even less when they involve two of our favorite local celebs- in this instance, Khanyi Mbau and Dineo Ranaka. The two got feisty at last week's Comedy Central Roasting of Kenny Kunene. Although the general feeling is that anything should be allowed to go at a Comedy Central roast, it seems as if some lines were crossed. Let's find out exactly what happened.
It's important to remember that both Khanyi and Dineo were members of the roasting panel and both ladies had their turn to step up and roast Kenny, as well as other members of the roasting panel. Every topic was seemingly fair game with fellow roasters not being hesitant to mention Khanyi's punani. The charming Ms Mbau rolled with the punches, however, and was able to shrug the jabs off with ease declaring "Ya, ne. My punani. It has stage presence"
When it was her (Khanyi's) turn to step up to the oven- er, sorry, the stage- she did not hold back, even going so far as to touch on Dineo Ranaka's previous problems with drugs. The radio and television personality, however, was having none of it and her face immediately screwed up into a sour frown. Peewu!
Dineo then confronted Khanyi Mbau during a break and although we could not hear exactly what they were saying, the two ladies' body language was more than enough for us to see that things were not "fun and games". It seems as if Dineo was suggesting that Khanyi had gone too far by mentioning the drug problems. Although we find it funny that nobody had a problem when everyone was lashing into Mbau's sexual history.

Anyways, the two continued to thrash it out until they sat at the table and started conversing with other people; Khanyi had no problem with this and continued to socialise with the other members of the panel. Dineo, in an attempt to forget everything and bury the hatchet, seemed to try and talk to Khanyi and share a joke as if nothing had happened. Khanyi was having absolutely none of it, however, and nearly elbowed her as she shrugged her attempts off. Ouch! The nearly-elbow did not look deliberate, however.
We don't know how things have been since that night but we don't imagine that Khanyi will be inviting Dineo anywhere to hang out anytime soon! We do hope the two ladies manage to resolve things so that there's no awkwardness the next time they bump into each other!
