Pearl Modiadie is one of the most bankable names in this part of the world, the beauty has been in the entertainment industry for several years and she has become South Africa’s sweetheart.
The star who usually stays out of drama was recently accused of stealing an idea. A content creator by the name of Glodine Makapela has accused Pearl Modiadie as well as the SABC of “stealing” her concept for a designer reality show, a claim Pearl has vehemently denied. Glodine took to Twitter to tell her story. Take a look at the tweets below.
