Bassie to sue Drum over ‘botched liposuction’ story. The media mogul is going ahead with suing the tabloid magazine after failing to secure an urgent court interdict to prevent the magazine from publishing an image of her son Nathi in a story about her alleged ‘botched liposuction’.
Judge Denise Fisher refrained from granting the urgent interdict in the South Gauteng High Court stating the image of Nathi was already online. Drum reportedly that Bassie also underwent cosmetic surgery, the magazine headlined their cover “Bassie’s Health Scare,’ “Media mogul dices with death, liposuction gone wrong?, internal bleeding.”
“Sadly I couldn’t get an urgent interdict on the lies on the lead story that I had ‘botched liposuction’ as the judge says the horse has bolted and the magazine is already on shelf in Cape Town,” Bassie said in a statement.
