Big Brother Naija season 7 star, Christy O has caused a stir online after she queried the professionality of South African makeup artistes and photographers.
The reality TV star, in a tweet shared on Thursday April 13, wondered if there are no good MUAs and photographers in South Africa, presumably because of the quality of work they do.
According to her, Nigerian make up artistes do an amazing job with transforming people’s look even if the person is ugly naturally but she can’t say the same for South Africans.
She wrote,
“No offense but don’t they have good MUA and Photographers in South Africa ? Like in Nigeria,even if you consider yourself the ugliest, our MUA and photographers will do a good job enhancing your beauty.

Her tweet has sparked mixed reactions online as many South Africans were mad at her for berating their MUAs and photographers.

@oliveronline_ wrote, “You wish you looked like a SA hon. That’s why your men chase after our girls coz their shit is real. You can bleach, get BBLs and filter all you want but you will never be a premium babe like an SA babe.”
However, many opined that she was throwing a shade at Khosi Twala, the winner of the just-concluded Big Brother Titans show.
