Pearl Thusi calls Twitter user a ‘little b***h’

Rule number one of Twitter: don’t mess with Pearl Thusi.


Pearl Thusi can’t be accused of being shy on social media, especially if someone rubs her up the wrong way.

She reminded us of this when she slammed a negative Twitter user this week.

Pearl is just one of several local celebrities who make you think twice before sending them hateful messages. The presenter and actress has never been shy to clap back when she’s called out online, and we saw it again this week when a Twitter user described her as “annoying”.

It all began with a Twitter thread that asked South Africans to name the celebrities that they find annoying for absolutely no reason. While many names were thrown into the hat, this user took exception with the Quantico and Lip Sync Battle Africa television star.

He responded by writing: “Pearl Thusi and Cassper Nyovest, they annoy and banesdina”.

Most people might have been hurt by the tweet, but Pearl is no stranger to criticism in South African entertainment and she’s more than capable of handling herself online.

She hit back with a spicy response that said:

The response clearly stung the Twitter user because he went on to delete his original post. However, the responses to Pearl’s post provided us all with even more entertainment.

If you’re new to Twitter, we have a word of advice for you: never come after Pearl Thusi!
