A SOUTH AFRICAN beauty, who was hoping to enter the 2020 Miss South Africa pageantry, has been forced to pull out following public pressure to dump the competition for racist comments she made via social media when she was a teenager.

Bianca Schoombee, now 21, began trending on Twitter as a favourite potential finalist among the public after posting photos of herself as part of her Miss SA entry.

The love quickly turned into disappointment and outrage, however, on Wednesday when offensive tweets posted by her over six years ago were dug up and widely shared.

Schoombee apologised for the tweets, stating that they were shared when she was still a teenager and that she had since changed.

However, social media users could not buy it.

Bianca said she’s ready to be #MissSA2020 & Black Twitter went back as far as 2013 just to prove that once tweeted racists tweets & she’s been body shaming others therefore #BiancaMustFall hai this App. #MissSA2020 #Bianca #BiancaSchoombee pic.twitter.com/9rKJ6CC7sD

Veteran former ZBC Radio 3 (now PowerFM) disc jockey, Peter John’s has died.

The Radio Driver, as he was affectionately known, died in the United Kingdom on Monday evening.

Arguably one of the most popular radio DJs of his time, Peter Johns hosted the Midday Jam on the then Radio 3 in Zimbabwe.

The entertainer, who died in a UK hospital, had been unwell for some time.

He left the station in 2002.

He was now based in the United Kingdom at the time of his death where he continued as club DJ, internet radio broadcaster and host at many functions, especially those involving Zimbabweans in the diaspora.

Peter’s health has been failing. According to Mark, his eldest son: “Peter was in a South London hospital after succumbing to three strokes and a heart attack.

This was not the first time Peter was hospitalised. In 2010 he suffered a mild cardiac arrest and was operated on.
