The best Twitter war of 2018 just happened between Pearl Thusi and Lasizwe

All it took was one tweet from internet sensation Lasizwe Dambuza to set off a Twitter war between him and the gorgeous Pearl Thusi.

Dambuza was commenting about Beyonce's Instagram video from the Global Citizen Festival where she used DJ Maphorisa's iWalk Ye Phara as a backing track.

After settling in at home from a beautiful trip to South Africa and India, I am still in awe that 7.1 BILLION dollars was raised to aid Global Citizen in its efforts to eradicate extreme poverty. I’d like to give my praise and respect to all the speakers, performers, and volunteers who donated their time to contribute to making positive change. Every person in the audience at FNB Stadium earned a seat because they generously donated their time to help their community. Now their efforts and the money raised will help improve education, healthcare, sanitation, women’s rights, and countless other causes for millions across the globe. I felt so much positivity and pride in the audience at Global Citizen: Mandela 100. Madiba, Johannesburg, and all of my African sisters and brothers, we hope we made you as proud as you all make us. South Africa was an extraordinary trip for me and my family. God bless. If you would like to become a Global Citizen you can get more info at globalcitizen.org

"All of a sudden Naye Le Walk sounds so Good after Beyoncé posted it! 🔥," he tweeted. Pearl quickly responded by saying: "When did it not sound good?" And that was it. The rest is history. 

In a series of fiery tweets, the pair went back and forth shading each other - war was declared. 

ZAlebs reported that Lasizwe felt that he was being picked on, and maintains that he "didn't pick on anybody".

A whole new world! Will Smith to star in new Aladdin movie

The live-action version of Disney's famous Aladdin movie will be released in 2019, and it has just been made public that Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air star Will Smith will star as 'Genie', as revealed by Entertainment Weekly.

Smith will star alongside Naomi Scott, who plays 'Princess Jasmine', and Mena Massoud, who plays 'Aladdin'.

While the news may be exciting to some, others have taken the opportunity to take a dig at Will's 'Genie'. 

"What could Will Smith possibly have done to deserve this? Jada is gonna have to do a whole episode of “Read Table Talk” about this hair piece," American poet Saeed Jones tweeted.

The film is said to be released in May 2019, so keep a close lookout for it, and for Will Smith's ponytail and beard. 

Check out the teaser trailer below:
