Reminiscing Mondays: Africa Magic Viewers Choice Awards | Genevieve's dress & Nigerian's double standards

The Africa Magic Viewers Choice Awards took place 2 days ago. There was a lot of talk about who was the best/worst dressed. Typical awards red carpet stuff..yawns. Genevieve's dress got many tongues wagging.

I looked at that dress and thought "dayummm..Genevieve looking on point". Ohhh..but guess what? Many Nigerians were appalled by the outfit and someone even wrote "exposing boobs is not in our culture" LOL. Are you kidding me? Showing cleavage is not part of our culture but wearing skinny jeans is? #logicfail

The hilarious thing is that people think so backward that they forgot that Genevieve wasn't naked but was going for a look and her overall look is sophisticated and classy. Here's a picture to show you what I mean:

Karen Igho on the other hand looks plain trashy. Genevieve's look isn't. I'm not one to show cleavage and I never do but I definitely have no issues with what Genevieve is wearing. So yes, Nigerian females worldwide who love to point fingers, here's something to think of. You probably don't go around in Nigerian clothes all day, you wear weaves and makeup, you speak English, and guess what - that's not Nigerian culture. Colonization is still showing its ugly face today. Sit your butts down!!

In other news, Genevieve wore this amazing yellow dress as well. The dress is part of the April by Kunbi collection
