Dineo Moeketsi allegedly threatens to beat up YFM DJ
TV presenter Dineo Moeketsi allegedly lost her cool when she saw a celebrity cosying up to her rapper boyfriend, Zothile “Solo” Langa. According to Sunday World reports, Moeketsi had to be restrained when she “threatened” to beat up YFM DJ Yvette Mhlauli after she spotted the radio DJ chatting to Langa at the Back to the City music festival in Johannesburg in April.
Sunday World quoted Mhlauli saying: “It was an innocent chat because I know Solo and we had not hooked up in a while. Nothing suggested we were being cosy or something. Then, when Dineo suddenly appeared and saw us together, she lost her cool.
“She pushed her face into mine and threatened to beat me up, but was restrained by Solo, who begged her to stop shouting at me.”
Moeketsi however denies the incident. “What are you talking about? Where did you get your information from?” Moeketsi asked Sunday World. “I’m busy shooting. I don’t know the person you are talking about. The only DJs I know at YFM are Sammy [Sosa] and Thembi [Thabethe],” she told the Sunday paper.
