Sunday Times Dragged For Pearl Thusi Article
After the Tall Ass Mo & Mome scandal involving BET and Pearl Thusi, Mzansi has been on edge because of how disrespected they feel, especially since GBV is such a serious problem in the country.

Tweeps were angry with how convenient of a time the article was published and a rather bizarre headline which seemed like a paid-for PR stunt for Queen Sono.
Whatever the publication was thinking to run with that article, we will never know, all we know is that South Africans cannot be fooled and they are even angrier that the headline tried to use DJ Zinhle’s name in it and Pearl Thusi was described as “Yellow” despite her “Brown Skin Girl” Tweet earlier this month.
Do you think the article was a paid PR stunt by Pearl to clean up her image?
