The video left a lot of her fans concerned and many wondered if she was indeed drunk or under the influence of something else.

Babes Wodumo recently became a mother and many were concerned about how she was raising her child while behaving in this manner, if it indeed was her.

Here are some reactions to the disturbing footage:

Some fans did not believe the woman in the video was Babes Wodumo

The woman in the video appears to be sitting on, or standing in the door, of a police van at a petrol station while frantically screaming for help.

It's unclear why she was calling for help. Many didn't believe the woman in the video was Babes.

@Mvumeni_m commented:

"That's not Babes Wodumo!"

"The babes we know would be screaming "ngisizeni bo" not help help."

The footage showed Babes and her friends chatting to fans via a live stream. During the stream, someone demanded that Babes pay back money she owes her. An irate Babes put the woman on blast and explained that she wanted money from a makeup session she did with her months ago.

Clearly annoyed by the woman, Babes went on to berate her, much to the amusement of the friends around her. Social media users were, surprisingly, not upset at Babes for her behaviour as it really is on brand for Babes.
