On Wednesday and Thursday viewers of Behind The Story with Pearl Thusi had mixed reactions after Pearl Thusi dismally failed to look behind the story when interviewing Enhle Mbali Mlotshwa. She was indeed armed and alert!
Basically, the show is about getting personal accounts behind the story and viewers get to see Pearl Thusi sitting down with a gifted personality to have a heartfelt conversation, that will unveil the mask of celebrities we thought we knew. So far, it’s not about any thoughts but it has been unveiled that Enhle Mbali doesn’t talk about her private affairs at all.
Let’s be frank here, Pearl Thusi’s main question was about the reports that Enhle Mbali and DJ Black Coffee are divorced!
Instead Pearl Thusi as a host kept on beating around the bush as if she was a sock puppet of some sort, which in turn disappointed all those who wanted to hear the tea of what is really happening in Black Coffee’s mansion.
It was really hard for Pearl Thusi to ask the ‘it’ question to a point she even asked if she’s no longer wearing her wedding ring – she was met with a rather mild answer that she has not been wearing it since the hijacking incident.
We have to admit though, Enhle Mbali was hard to crack-open because she knew why she went to the show from the first place – to promote her own show and she did just that. She commanded her presence to a point that Pearl Thusi really looked scared to even question her further about the cheating allegations that have been rocking her house for like ever.
Here’s what we have for you Sis’ Pearl Thusi:
When you already know your guest is already late for the show, obviously the environment will be hostile akere? So, you should have asked her this: There have been reports in the media that you and hubby have split, is it true that you’re no longer with Black Coffee, yes or no?
If she chooses to duck that question, at least as a host you would have served your purpose. I mean, that’s the BIGGEST question everyone wanted to be uncovered.
How do you allow Enhle Mbali to control the content of your own show like that? How do you allow her to act as if she doesn’t even remember any media reports about her private life? How can you Pearl Thusi?
If Pearl Thusi cracked Enhle Mbali we could have been celebrating how she’s a good host today and not writing these kinds of educational articles. Next time, do consult with Journalists on how to nail an interview subject if you know you won’t be able to do that. You were at work, and you didn’t have to be friends with her, but frank with her in a polite way that will dish to the viewer what you always do when having other big names.
We could’ve expanded but that’s all. We also stan on how Enhle Mbali behaved for her children and brand’s sake. She’s the boss! The whole show turned into a MEME!
Catch Behind The Story SE3 on BET Channel 129 every Wednesday.
