Uncle Waffles had a rollercoaster of a relationship with the peeps in Mzansi. When she is not being praised for rocking the DJ booth, then she's being torn apart by those who feel she is a one-hit-wonder, reported Briefly News.

Ever since Uncle Waffles became a household name, peeps have been questioning the reasons for her fame. The South African reported that there was an internet debate that saw many crediting the DJ's fame to her looks.

The tweeps were divided by Uncle Waffles trending, @Khalid_Muhamadi even blamed it on 'pretty privilege'. His words were:

"Is Uncle Waffles famous for actually being a good DJ or is she famous for being sexy? Pretty privilege does exist; most SA female celebrities are not famous because they are actually good DJs, good actors or presenters, they are famous because of their looks many are untalented."
