Not only did the song trend, but South Africans gave Toni a new name: ‘Naledi’.
“It’s my new South African name (my SA followers gave it to me Face with tears of joy). It means star,” she wrote on Twitter.

The star even learned new South African words such as the “bathong” expression and "sala hantle".
“It’s bedtime for me now, but it’s been fun dedicating a day to my SA followers! Thanks for teaching me a new phrase, sharing a dope song, and giving me an extra name. I’m very flattered! Hope you all enjoy your night. Sala hantle,” she wrote on Twitter.
