Season two of Dinner At Somizi’s will be delayed because Hastings Moeng is not backing down without a fight.
The face of the cooking show, faced theft accusations by Hastings Moeng who claimed that the concept of Dinner Kwa Somizi’s was his brainchild, and that Somizi had stolen it.
Despite Somizi addressing the issue on his Instagram Live with Pearl Thusi and on national television, the matter has not been resolved and Hastings demands what is due to him.
According to Sowetan Live, there are talks between Somizi, the producer of the show Legend Manqele and Hastings to settle the legalities surrounding the intellectual property of the show.
Further more, Hastings wants to know how much money Somizi made for the first season of the show which had just ended.
“MultiChoice is further requested, in good faith, to disclose the agreement entered into between the channel, Somizi and Legend, including the amount that had been paid to Somizi and Legend pertaining to season one,” the publication wrote.
“I only spoke to him once. I think it was in 2013, not 2014. He told me he wants us to do a cooking show”Dinner with Somizi,” or something like that.
