One of the most popular It Girls of the early-to mid-2000s, Minnie Dlamini was dubbed South Africa’s Diamond. She will now not only be known as a media personality, MC, businesswoman and model, she will also hold the title of being the second Black African woman to be roasted, after Khanyi Mbau.
Being the talk of the town is nothing new for Minnie. With her roast around the corner, her name will once again be on the lips of many. But this time around, it will be on her terms.
“This is a moment for me to turn lemons into lemonade,” says Minnie.“This is a moment for me to see and hear a lot of the things that people have been saying about me [which were cruel and mean] and turn what was said into something light and fun. In addition to that, this is a celebration of myself and my career. So my roast will surely be a good day at the office – what a way to get paid!”
