Singer Oyinkansola Sarah Aderibigbe, popularly known as Ayra Starr, has responded to criticism following backlash over her recent outfit, which sparked debate online for being revealing when paired with a traditional gele.
Ayra Starr made a bold fashion statement by wearing a traditional Nigerian gele paired with a modern, streetwear-style outfit to a live event. She wore this look while headlining Part 1 of the Zsongo Experience at KOKO London, where fellow artiste Tiwa Savage also made a surprise appearance.
The 23-year-old artiste, who was widely discussed after photos of her appearance circulated on social media, dismissed the criticism and insisted she is unbothered by the reactions.
