Seyi Shay received a lot of backlash for her performance outfit at the ‘Meet the President’ event a few days ago and now she is speaking out in a bid to clarify things for her fans.
The singer in an interview with Punch Newspaper stated:
I
am a very respectable young lady and I was not in any way trying to
seduce the President with the outfit I wore. I had two outfits for the
event, one was for my performance and the other was worn after I
performed. The dress I was pictured in with the President was what I
wore during my performance. I came on stage and greeted everyone
according to their culture and I did the same for Mr. President. He was
impressed and he asked where and how I knew how to greet in his native
dialect and I said I learnt it. That was what brought about the giggling
and smiles in the picture. I’m a performer and what I do on stage
doesn’t reflect my everyday life. I had two outfits on that day and it
was a youth event. Who wouldn’t feel overwhelmed meeting the President?
Well, I did and I felt honoured because it is not every day you get to
meet the president of your country.
