New target in Nonhle's Twitter tirade

Cape Town - Nonhle Thema's got it in for Minnie Dlamini.

The former vuzu.tv presenter tweeted furiously on Thursday and Friday, claiming Dlamini is a drunk and she is "just a presenter".

Dlamini won a presenter search in 2010 and became the new face on SABC1's music show Live!.

JustCurious.co.za reports that Dlamini claims she was hit in the face at Johannesburg nightclub Hush by one of the club's patrons in the VIP area.

A heated debate as to who was responsible ensued, with the PR teams for Dlamini and Hush both issuing statements as to the accuracy of the facts presented.

It is thought that's Thema's tweets are referring to this incident.

At approximately 08:00 on Friday Thema posted the following update on her Twitter page: "lay off the BOOZE @minnie STOP it youre a DRUNK dont blame it on Hush club.i go there all the time neva had i had a BEAT DOWN u were DRUNK (sic)"

Many similar tweets followed, including: "acting like a VICTIM .ow please DRUNK girl @minniedllamini STOP IT (sic)"

This isn't the first time Thema has lashed out at another personality. Earlier this year she and radio DJ Dineo Ranaka were engaged in a bitter Twitter battle.
