Content creator Amarachi Amusi, also known as Ashmusy, has revealed that she made the decision to stop wearing revealing attire due to the perception that she was being viewed as a prostitute.
During an interview with Phyna, the winner of BBNaija 2022, on her ‘Spill with Phyna’ podcast, Ashmusy explained, “Before I rebranded a few months ago, I used to wear sexy outfits. As a young girl, one would want to show one’s body. I did not know that I was being perceived as a prostitute.
“Meanwhile, I knew how much I was working behind the camera, running a business, and shooting adverts every day. With all of that, I was able to buy a car and house. It pained me when people insinuated that those things were bought for me by a man.”
Reflecting on her past behaviour, she continued, “I was later in my quiet zone, thinking about why I was being judged that way, despite all my works that they people were seeing. I then started watching my videos, seeing that most times my body was exposed, with my nipples even showing.
“I was being goofy, but I did not know that people had been looking at something else. I have realised that if one wants to be seen as a prestigious woman, one has to dress accordingly. One cannot be showing (sensitive) parts of one’s body.”
Addressing her active presence on social media, particularly showcasing her lavish lifestyle, Ashmusy stated, “If you watch my hustle, you have to watch me enjoy. You will watch me while I sleep, swim and even eat.”
