Thickleeyonce strongly defended Gigi Lamayne against a troll who mocked her for stretch marks on her thighs and buttocks.  

The plus-size model, real name Lesego Legobane, who is unashamedly proud of her body and has a zero tolerance approach to body shaming made it clear she was not about to entertain the slander against Gigi on her Twitter timeline. 

She also went on to emphasize that stretch marks are nothing to be ashamed of, and are normal.

Gigi shared a picture of herself in a bright orange costume that showed off her legs and proudly embraced the way her body was made.

"Superwoman didn't just wear a cape. She was black with stretch marks, an imperfect body and skin as melanin as that of the soil," she wrote.

While many applauded the rapper for not being shy to show off her stretch marks, a troll re-posted the picture on Twitter making fun of Gigi.

Gigi hit back at the Twitter user labelling him immature.
