Briefly News reports Pearl Thusi took to social media to defend Anele Mdoda. The Mzansi media personality has come under heavy attack from American Twitter after they heard that she roasted one of their fave, Kelly Rowland.

Anele has also been shaded by Mzansi fans of the US superstar. Anele's name is trending high on social media this Friday evening. While people such as Pearl have defended her, many others feel that she should have apologised a long time ago for saying Kelly is the ugliest member of Destiny's Child.

Taking to Twitter, the Queen Sono star shared her thoughts on the whole saga. According to ZAlebs Pearl said:

"So this thing with Anele has gone straight to body shaming. Intense. I thought there was a universal agreement that we’d all outgrown that."
