And several "fashion police" on Twitter quickly shared some rather harsh remarks (and memes) on Thusi's "Jackie Chan" inspired look:

@clementscholtz: "If i was @PearlThusi knowing @bonang_m would be hosting i would've gladly declined the job... #MMA15."

@BecauseImShani_: "Owww God!! So Pearl Thusi looks like Bruce Lee #MMA15."

@Ntokozo_Malaza: "I love Pearl Thusi but today with that hair she looks like Jackie Chan! Mara why?! #MM15."

@BBAFans: "Pearl Thusi's hair makes her look like she's wearing a mohair hat. #MMA15."

‎@LegareThuto: "@PearlThusi you are beautiful Pearl but that hairstyle didn't do you justice. It's actually hilarious."

@chabayana: "Pearl Thusi probably had a visionboard on Saturday sitting there envisioning like #HairGoal her life tragic #MMA15."

Ouch! Not very nice, but Thusi didn't take the cyber abuse in silence...

She later shammed her online "haters" on Instagram (although the post was later deleted):

So I thought maybe I really was wrong... Maybe these people know better... But this is what I found. so I've decided maybe nah. I'll stick to my stylist because my life is actually great. My fav is bottom left! And the eyebrows on top right. What's yours? And that struggle Afro that needs my products. Maybe old girl must stop wasting data and go purchase. Shame, man.

Take that! Now the comments on social media are rather different..

@LetukaSello: "Long or short shaved or fluffy hair your simply magnificently elegantly graciously supremely beautiful! full stop @PearlThusi."

@sip_dbn: "When @PearlThusi throws shade.. Looooooove her."

@Djkgabz: "@PearlThusi hahaha just read your timeline. You dealt with em haters very well!!!!!! #mpama Quick to hate but they can't handle da heat!"

Are MstarsNews readers impressed with Thusi' vengeful comeback?

The South African beauty currently stars on the popular SABC 3 soap opera "Isidingo" and co-hosts Live AMP with DJ Warras and Luthando Shosha.
