Lady Du's tweets have once again irritated Mzansi people. The Amapinao star, who is always opinionated about South Africa's showbiz, landed on the wrong side of the internet after her latest post.

Mzansi irritated by Lady Du "seeking validation" from Hollywood stars

Netizens said the way Lady Du worded her tweet makes it seem like the love Mzansi artists receive from local people is obligatory. Peeps called out the musician, seemingly saying the musician is treating American stars like Gods of global entertainment.

@StumzarM said:

"South African musicians must stop looking for validation from the USA. Being posted doesn't really mean anything. You guys must value yourselves more. This is disappointing."
