Many South Africans are already familiar with Sassy Taylor Morrison, dubbed \u201cthe sassiest little girl you will ever meet\u201d.<\/p>\n

The little girl has stolen the hearts of many, thanks to her hot takes on everyday issues. Based in Durban, Taylor first shot to fame as a toddler going through her terrible twos.<\/p>\n

With thousands of followers on social media, it was only a matter of time till Taylor became an influencer in her own right. But who would have thought she\u2019d get a mention on award-winning actress Viola Davis\u2019s Facebook page?<\/p>\n

Davis, who is on a promotional tour for her latest film \u201cThe Woman King\u201d, found the time to reshare one of Taylor\u2019s posts with the caption: \u201cFriendly reminder.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the post, the sassy girl has a message for all her haters. \u201cIf you see someone\u2019s post and you don\u2019t like it, please man, don\u2019t put your negativity in the post. Just scroll,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Many online users compared Taylor to a young Trevor Noah in the making, with one saying, \u201cOh my\u2026..totally feeling \u2018Trevor Noah\u2019 from this. If she was a boy, I\u2019d think it was him as a child at first. She even looks like him!!\u201d<\/p>\n

Another commented: \u201cOut of the mouths of babes. She speaks so much of the truth I hope we are all listening to baby girl.\u201d<\/p>\n

Davis may have reshared the post as a thinly-veiled swipe at her detractors. After the release of \u201cThe Woman King,\u201d staring our very own Thuso Mbedu, she had to deal with some negative publicity.<\/p>\n

!function(e,t,r){let n;if(e.getElementById(r))return;const a=e.getElementsByTagName(\u201cscript\u201d)[0];n=e.createElement(\u201cscript\u201d),n.id=r,n.defer=!0,n.src=\u201dhttps:\/\/playback.oovvuu.media\/player\/v1.js\u201d,a.parentNode.insertBefore(n,a)}(document,0,\u201doovvuu-player-sdk\u201d);<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Critics of the film accused its depiction of whitewashing and glorifying slavers. Speaking to Variety, Davis said: \u201cI agree with (director) Gina Prince-Bythewood\u2019s saying is you\u2019re not going to win an argument on Twitter.\u201d<\/p>\n

She also reiterated that most of the film was fictionalised and not based on actual events concerning the Dahomey Kingdom.<\/p>\n
