Thusi was slammed by the people of Zimbabwe for accepting an offer from the govt.

“Celebrities are so shameless bruh! Act like they want nothing to do with corrupt governments but they turn blind eye when it’s time for gigs. What truth will Pearl Thusi tell about Zimbabwe? Only going to read a Zanupf script, so detached from Zimbabweans on the ground,” a tweet read.

“Pearl Thusi can’t tell Zimbabweans the true Zimbabwe because they live there and know it , she can’t tell South Africans about the True Zimbabwe because they see the number of Zimbabweans in their country.”
