There’s A Mara Louw-Shaped Hole In All Of Us
26 Jan 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
The producers of Idols South Africa have let Mara Louw go after three seasons of racist slur, violent outbursts, faux couture and drunken shenanigans. Boy, that was fun. She was the single judge who could always be counted on to do something unscripted and rash at around the 40 minute mark of every episode. What do we do now?
