“Nessa! Nessa!” is the phrase late comedian Bernie Mac used to say to his co-star Camille Winbush, known as Vanessa Thomkins, on “The Bernie Mac Show.” Now, fans are saying the exact phrase as the 31-year-old actress left fans shocked when she uploaded an Instagram Live of herself twerking over the weekend.
Winbush appeared in a navy blue and black tank top, black panties, and black see-through tights. At first, Winbush danced flirtatiously at the camera, moving her body side to side. Then she turned it up a notch and turned around to shake her visible buns at the camera.

The commentary from fans mocked how hard Mac or “Uncle Bernie” was on his nieces and nephew from his television series as he took them in as his own.
“Where is Uncle Bernie when you need him ? 😩”
“See, this why Uncle Bernie was hard on Nessa, lmao 😂😂😂.”
“AMERICA, LOOK AT THIS SH–,” quoting one of Mac’s phrases.
“All I hear is Uncle Bernie’s voice screaming ‘NESSSSSSAAAAAA 😂.’ “
“Y’all let her live…she is grown now. She isn’t Uncle Bernie’s Lil baby, no mo! Lol.”
“Bernie in heaven yelling 🗣NESSA‼️.”
Winbush twerking shouldn’t come as a surprise, seeing that the actress announced earlier this year that she was creating an OnlyFans. This service often contains adult-related content that creators can make money from those who subscribe to their page.
However, Winbush received significant backlash for joining OnlyFans. It led to the former child-star releasing a statement that she made a “mistake of reading comments” about her OnlyFans announcement.
“Overall, the majority were supportive, and I appreciate that. I really do. But I’m human, and of course, the ones that stick out to me were the negatives,” Winbush wrote.
