Torrid tales of sleaze - Khanyi spills all in new bio
THE biography is cheekily titled Bitch Please, I'm Khanyi Mbau.
And though it leaves some stones unturned, you are sure to get your money's worth if you are into sleaze.
Author and journalist Leslie Mofokeng sat for hours listening to Mbau telling him her bedroom secrets and about her lifestyle in the fast lane.
Among hair-raising anecdotes Mbau shares with readers is that her high-flying ex-hubby Mandla Mthembu "loved anal sex" and that one of her former lovers, businessman Theunis Crous, enjoyed talking to her "more than the sex" as his wife Primrose is "not that sharp".
"She's not Joburg smart. English is not her strong point," we are told.
She says: "Mandla loved anal sex. I didn't. I remember breaking nails clutching the headboard in pain. My gay friends encouraged me to keep at it, promising I would eventually get used to it."
On suitors and friends in between Mandla and Theunis, Mbau mentions Landile Shembe kaGcingca, who once dated Brenda Fassie, and Nthato Motlana's son Wandi Motlana, but insists they were not romanticly involved.
The Queen of Bling has left a great, unsavoury legacy from the days of her gold digging ways with Mthembu and Crous - and she has not been shy to unveil her assets.
So stark she's been that she was allegedly once banned from the J&B Met due to her salacious wardrobe.
Last year, in the fall of her luck, her nude photographs "accidentally" found their way onto the Internet and consequently the media.
But her sale of her baby's pics to a magazine left a people speculating about her fate long before that.
And while most bios are viewed in hindsight with glory or regret, it' s hard to identify Mbau's emotions.
Perhaps because of the abundance of sleaze - or is it her strength?
She chronicles her money-bound marriage to then millionaire Mthembu and the abuse it entailed.
It started on hard cash with the Mthembu delegation coughing up as much as R40000 during the ilobola negotiations. But, as it is inevitable with relationships propelled by transactions, she was made to pay.
"Mandla would beat me until I bled," she says. "I'd grab him by the scruff of the neck and try to push him over the balcony railing.
"He'd wrestle me to the ground and pull my hair. Then he'd hit me and I'd try to strangle him.
"My last resort was to kick him in the balls, where it hurt. I fought like I was going to die.
"Like a wild animal."
The fighting was almost routine and they stopped communicating.
"Today I can rationalise in a mature and calm way ... I'd break down after hitting Mandla but while I was screaming and crying I'd beg him to make love to me," she says.
"Abuse makes you angry and needy at the same time. It leaves you feeling schizophrenic."
Mbau says the suffering made her lose weight.
"I'd lost myself. I couldn't recognise the person I'd become. I'd never been that thin in my life from chasing after a man."
The176-page hardcover is available at leading book stores at R250.

How old is this woman? Can she be having an autoboigraphy at her age? Has she achieved much that we shud wanna know about her? Is she educated for a role model to our kids? What will I achieve after reading her book? This is simple, I am not buying it coz there will be no new thing to come out of it. Khanyi is transparent afterallMthetheleliNtshobololo
You say you suffered, do you even know the meaning? hope you don't think people will feel sorry for you, going for some1 probably older than your own father. you were in every talk show boasting about your expensive cars & countless pairs of shoes. only if people were thinking the same they wouldn't buy this trash even if it was less than R50. You made your bed so who's suppose to use it ?????????????????????RobtMugabe99
The is nothing wrong for an older man to date a woman who is above 18yrs (she is nt a miner) what is wrong is to date a girl younger than 18yrs, if you take a look, woman get older quicker than males , look at the King Mswati, and Zulu King they get marrid to young ladies and immediately they get married they look oldMy advice to you dont get married to a girl of your age sishimane ndini get a woman 10yrs younger than you
