Ntsiki Mazwai, who is known for speaking her mind on social media, got flak after questioning Connie Ferguson’s acting skills.
Taking to Twitter on Thursday, she criticised the veteran actor, stating that Ferguson isn’t “talented”, she’s just more likeable.
This comes as fans were talking about the most loved couples on television.
A Twitter user who goes by the name Thabisa Mazonke, shared an image of Ferguson and Rapulana Seiphemo, who played Tau Mogale in the SABC1 soapie “Generations”.

In response to the post, the local poet and musician said: “I don’t know if I think Connie is a great actress…..I think uyathandeka Nje (she’s just likeable)…..not necessarily talented.”
The statement did not sit well with fans of Ferguson, who stars and executive produces Mzansi Magic’s popular telenovela “The Queen”.
Tweeps hit back at Mazwai, with many labelling her “bitter.”
“No .. Connie is the greatest actor of our generation … she makes acting look easy,” commented DJ Mora.
“You’re bitter,… Ngathi uya uba worse (you’re getting worse), “ commented Banomoya.
