Dayo Amusa Blasts At Bobrisky "Best Dressed Female" Award | Fab.ng

Nollywood actress Dayo Amusa wasn’t shy about sharing her disapproval on social media. On Monday, March 25th, 2024, she took to her Instagram account to express her outrage over the results of the ‘best-dressed’ category at the “Beast of Two Worlds” movie premiere the prior day. It seems the choice of winner left Amusa feeling quite upset.

“Naturally, I don’t do this but I felt the need to do this,” she said. “I am not happy because I went to a colleague’s premiere yesterday and then they said that the best dressed was to be picked. One female best dresser and one male best dresser. Don’t get me wrong it could be anyone yes but definitely not a cross-dresser,” she said.

Dayo Amusa’s outrage stemmed from the winner of the “best-dressed woman” category at the movie premiere. Bobrisky, a well-known transgender personality, took home the award for their appearance, which included a long sequined gown and matching black lipstick.

In the “best-dressed man” category, Big Brother Naija alum Groovy was the winner. Both winners received a cash prize of ₦1 million. Amusa, clearly bewildered by the judges’ decision, took to social media to express her belief that it disrespected all the women who attended the event.

“What is wrong with us? When did we become this? I don’t understand how the judges disrespected every woman who made an effort to be at that event. Even if it’s 5 kobo an individual used to put their looks together, why is it that when it was time to pick the best-dressed female, you watered down the efforts of all the individuals at that event by giving it to a cross-dresser? What is wrong with us? I don’t understand it,” she continued.

Dayo Amusa and her frustration didn’t stop with just a social media post. She revealed on Instagram that she was so upset by Bobrisky. As he was named the “best-dressed woman,” she decided to leave the movie premiere altogether. This dramatic exit highlights the intensity of her feelings about the outcome.

“If you feel like the crossdresser has merited an award, create a category for them and give them their own. Not that you would disrespect every man and woman who came to that event by giving the best-dressed female to a crossdresser. Are the judges okay?? I had to walk out of that event,” she sneered.

Despite Amusa’s strong criticism, Bobrisky responded to her post with a message of affection, saying, “I love you regardless.”

I Find It Beautiful When Men Cry – Simi

Simi Finds It Beautiful When Men Cry | Fab.ng

Nigerian singer Simi talked about men showing their emotions. She said she likes it when men are open about their feelings. Simi thinks it’s good when men allow themselves to be vulnerable.

Simi was a guest on a podcast called the “90’s Baby Show.” During the show, she shared her opinion on this topic. She explained that she finds it attractive when men express their emotions freely.

Simi believes men should share their feelings instead of keeping them hidden. She thinks it’s beautiful when men embrace their sensitive side. In her view, men shouldn’t try to hide or suppress their emotions.

“I find it beautiful when men cry because I am surrounded by so many men that feel like they have to be macho all the time or they have to be strong,” she began.

Simi talked about how society expects men to act. She said that many people think men should always look strong and tough. This puts pressure on men to hide their feelings. The singer explained that these expectations are not fair. She believes they can be harmful to men’s well-being.

Simi then shared an important message. She said it’s perfectly fine for men to have two sides. They can be supportive of their family and friends. At the same time, they can also show their own emotions.

She wanted to make it clear that being emotional doesn’t make a man weak. Simi thinks men can be both strong and sensitive. She encourages men to express their feelings openly.

Simi explained, “When you see men and women go through the same kind of pain or hurt, the man says, ‘I have to be strong for my wife or for my women or kids.’ I think that’s okay, but I don’t think strength means not being vulnerable or not crying.”

Simi talked about what happens when people hide their feelings. She said it’s not good for men to keep their emotions locked inside. The singer explained that when men don’t express their feelings, it can cause problems. These problems might not show up right away. Instead, they can build up over time inside a person.

Also, she warned that these hidden emotions don’t just go away. Eventually, they might come out in ways that people don’t expect. This could lead to sudden outbursts or other issues.

She believes it’s healthier for men to express their emotions regularly. This way, they can avoid the negative effects of bottling up their feelings.

“I like it when men cry because it means that you feel safe with who you’re with, you can be vulnerable, and you can let go. That’s how I see it because as an African woman, I have seen African men be like, ‘I’m the protector, I’m the provider, I’m the warrior,’ but I feel like if it’s not coming out in your tears, it’s going somewhere. Even if it’s like a little ball inside your heart, one day you’re just going to explode,” she explained.

Rita Dominic beats critic after questioning her movie role | Fab.ng

Rita Dominic is a well-known and experienced actress in the Nollywood industry. She has been acting for many years. Recently, Rita was in a movie series called “Lekki Wives”.

An X user (formerly known as Twitter) user @Filmheadi didn’t think Rita should be in “Lekki Wives”. This person believed that Rita, as a famous and experienced actress, should not be doing this kind of role anymore.

The X user suggested that there are certain types of movie projects that Rita should no longer be part of. According to the person, Rita should only take on roles that are considered more suitable for her status.

This comment was meant to criticize Rita’s choice of acting roles. The user seemed to think that Rita was too important or too experienced for the “Lekki Wives” series.

The post read,

“There are certain projects your brand should outgrow, because why is Rita Dominic in Lekki Wives or whatever it is called? Common.”

Rita saw this comment and decided to respond to it. She wanted to explain her view on the matter. She said that people who talk like this don’t have “artistic integrity”. This means they don’t truly understand or respect the art of acting.

Rita advised other actors not to pay attention to these kinds of comments. She warned that if actors listen to such criticism, they might start to think they are more important than the movie industry itself.

Rita believes this kind of thinking is not good for actors or the industry.

She encouraged Nollywood stars to be open to all kinds of roles and projects. Rita thinks actors shouldn’t limit themselves to only certain types of movies or roles.

Instead, Rita suggested that actors should be willing to work on any platform that allows them to use their creative talents. This could mean working on big movies, small productions, TV series, or any other type of project.

She wrote,

“Dear Actors, only people who have no single drop of artistic integrity speak like this. If you listen to them, you will soon begin to believe you are more important than the industry that birth you. You are an ACTOR, so make sure to find a way or platform to release the creative energy in you. Continue to hone your skills regardless of empty comments like this, cos knowledge is never-ending – yours truly, Rita.”

Remember way back in March? That’s when auditions kicked off for this season, and right from the start, there was a buzz about a new rule. Unlike previous seasons where hopefuls competed solo, this time around, contestants had to audition in pairs! It didn’t matter if they were BFFs, family members, romantically involved, or just a great team – as long as they were a “dynamic duo,” they had a shot at becoming housemates.

This exciting news about season 9 comes hot on the heels of another announcement. Ex-winner Mercy Eke recently shared that the reunion show for the last season, which featured all-star housemates, was unfortunately cancelled.

The reason behind this decision remains a mystery for now. But with the news of auditions requiring pairs and the upcoming season premiere, Big Brother Naija fans have something much bigger to look forward to!
