Slik Talk took to his YouTube channel and aired his opinions regarding the viral video, taking some hard jabs at Pearl.
“I want want to talk about a manchurian candidate, a trojan horse, an overrated actor in Pearl Thusi. I just saw this disturbing video of running up on Big Zulu to give him an inappropriate hug like ‘you don’t care about me, you forgot about me. Pearl Thusi, first of all, you’re pushing 40 and you act like you’re 19. Baby girl you’re not as desirable as you once were, I’m sorry to tell you this…people aren’t checking on you anymore Pearl Thusi. You’re constantly trying to get attention, you constantly trying to trend. My thing is let’s focus on the talent with which you have none. You’re a terrible actor. You cant act to save your life,” said Slik Talk in the video.

“I’m not going to going to punish Slik Talk just because he’s a bottom feeder YouTuber. What I will do is I’m going to buy him a new wardrobe, possibly a new camera and a tripod. Just to kill him with kindness vibes,” Pearl said in the video.
