Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that South African actress, Pearl Thusi, has spoken about the losses of Wizkid at the 2022 Grammy Awards. (Read More Here).
Recall that Wizkid lost both nominated categories to Angelique Kidjo and Arooj Aftab at the 63rd Grammy Awards on Sunday.
Taking to her Twitter page, Pearl Thusi, said Wizkid not winning the Grammy is the reason she doesn’t take the Grammy’s too seriously.
After sharing her tweet, she got fired by South Africans, who said she didn’t even bother to celebrate Black Coffee (a Mzansi) who won a Grammy; but decided to talk about a Nigerian.
She wrote: “Wiz not winning a Grammy is just another reason I kinda don’t take the Grammy’s too seriously. It’s a celebratory/fun show with cool statues.
African artists have proved they don’t need them but they’re a nice to have.
But also I could be wrong. That’s just me… all love.
“Entlek some of y’all need to also admit y’all low key obsessed with me because WOW!!! I can’t cry about Wiz not winning a Grammy without it being an insult to someone else?!? Hhayi tsek!!!”

Same way i stopped taking Netflix seriously when they gave you a TV show just for being light skinned
But actors like Thuso Mbedu have proved they don’t need Netflix or to be light skinned.

Black Coffee wins the highest honor in Music and all of a sudden u have some to say about Grammy’s??
This might be jealousy of you knowing you will never win the highest honor in acting which is an Oscar award.
So rest sestere!! Grammy’s don’t care about your input.

Rest young woman! This is NOT about you!… Use social media wisely, you also know you’ll NEVER win a highest in your acting career, which is Oscar award… Rest ntombazane! And learn to celebrate other people’s achievements.

Wiz not winning a grammy is really unfortunate, but you saying you don’t take the awards serious is kinda shady to our own Black coffee who won it. It could’ve been nice to tweet congratulations and keep that opinion to yourself. No offense.

Yes Wiz not winning a Grammy was a shame, but you chose the wrong time to drop this tweet. Siyazi ubhorekile but if you had dropped this tweet before Black Coffee won it we would’ve taken it a bit serious but manje ihambisana nomona le tweet yakho goqa sisi.

Your tweet is in bad taste, especially since an African DJ recently won an award, you saying you don’t take them serious is the same as you dismissing the value of his achievement.. As a citizen you’re entitled to your free speech but as a celebrity hmm learn to filter mama.
