Pearl Thusi.
South Africa is a proudly spicy nation. You need not look too far to see examples of our people’s special brand of sassiness; a few minutes on Twitter will reveal everything.
Among the many (many!) spicy individuals in this country are some of our biggest celebrities whose massive platforms only help them amplify the immensity of their clapbacks.
If you’re thinking of trolling or engaging any of the celebs in this list, you should do so at your own peril…

Unathi Msengana doesn’t just deliver the clapbacks on Twitter, she dishes them out and serves them hot!
Although, once or twice in the past, her responses have landed her in trouble. However, in the incident below she actually made a troll apologise after offending her!
ThickLeeyonce’s levels of spice actually gained her international recognition in 2017 after her clapback against a fat-shamer went viral.
That wasn’t a one-off though – she never hesitates to put a troll in their place.
You can’t talk about spicy social media celebrities without mentioning Pearl Thusi.

Bonnie Mbuli is one of the most composed celebrities in the country, but she’s shown down the years that she’s not afraid to throw a little shade.
This tweet was (presumably) directed at Bonang Matheba’s vineyard saga.
Gigi Lamayne is as spicy for her direct responses as she is for her subliminal tweets. The rapper seems to regularly take veiled shots towards some of her direct rivals in the industry.
