South African actress Pearl Thusi left social media users unimpressed after she posted a series of videos on her Instagram timeline shaking her booty for a new social media challenge.   

Taking her Instagram, the Queen Sono actress captioned her post saying: 

“I need help choosing the one that should become my reel for the challenge. Comment with the frame number! Please and thank you!”

Pearl took to her Instagram story where she reacted to the backlash that she received after posting her twerking challenge video dance.

“I am busy travelling the world because I deserve that. I am not even gonna go on Twitter because I know I am trending. I wonder when people are going to realise that like for as long as you guys try and police me or my body and me being a mother, for as long as that is happening, I will do what I am doing,” said Pearl. 

“I love my body… I am going to enjoy it and I am going to show it off because wow, I have worked so hard. God did the damn things. I am gorgeous, I really am and I know it. I want to turn 50 and look back at these videos and say [I was hot]. Until then, I hope everybody can find peace, enjoy their day, and be happy so that you can stop worrying about me and my bum,” she added.
