• A video of Pearl Thusi and Nadia Nakai twerking at a nightclub event recently surfaced on social media
• Pearl Thusi was filmed twerking on a man while Nadia Nakai also danced energetically among the crowd
• The clip, shared under the Mzansi Groove brand, divided South Africans online with strong opinions about the two stars

Two of South Africa's most recognisable entertainment figures have set social media ablaze after a nightclub video showing them in full party mode began circulating widely. Pearl Thusi and Nadia Nakai were both captured twerking at what appears to be a recent club event in South Africa, and Mzansi has had a lot to say about it.

The footage, shared on X under the Mzansi Groove brand, was filmed inside a dimly lit venue with blue and red ambient lighting. The energy in the room is unmistakably festive, with a crowd of partygoers in full swing. In the clip, Pearl Thusi is seen twerking on a man, while Nadia Nakai also throws it back among the crowd, clearly unbothered and in her element.

The video divided opinions sharply once it started making the rounds. Some viewers found it harmless fun, while others felt it was beneath the two celebrities' public images.

Watch the viral nightclub clip that sparked the debate:

Pearl Thusi is a seasoned actress, TV host, and businesswoman best known for roles in Queen Sono and her presenting work across major South African platforms. Nadia Nakai, also known as Bragga, is one of the country's most prominent female rappers, celebrated for her unapologetic persona and long-standing presence in the hip-hop scene.

Neither star has publicly addressed the circulating video, but given their respective reputations for owning their choices without apology, fans are unlikely to expect one. Below is how social media responded:

@LetsoaloRant asked: "Hahahahaha.. Kana how old is Pearl?"

@mokone_eddie quipped: "Is groove vele about Flexing 'big nyash' ne?!! OK, maybe small ones too 😄😄😄"

@Dukes_Mokoena kept it simple: "Having fun"
