Lira‘s attempt at showing some love to Miss Universe Zozibini Tunzi went south and resulted in Twitter users trolling her.
Ever since she won Miss Universe, Zozibini has been the talk of the town. From congratulatory messages to artists drawing up amazing art pieces of the beauty, you name it!
Lira ‘celebrated’ Zozi by posting a picture of herself alongside Zozibini with the caption: “This was sent to me.”
People quickly jumped at the opportunity to judge both ladies based on beauty and whether or not they even looked alike.
The bullying and trolling was so bad that tweeps laughed at the songstress, forcing her to delete the picture and set the record straight.
Lira is one of the few female celebrities that has always rocked her natural hair. When the standard of beauty changed, she stayed the same. So she is allowed to be proud of the fact that her face is now reflected in that of Miss Universe. They are bare, natural and beautiful!
Ok'salayo, Lira has always, ALWAYS been as authentic & as genuine as you perceive Zozi now. Thank you for reminding us. I'm glad she reminded us.
But the damage was done and the streets had a field day with the First African Barbie. A #ThisWasSentToMeChallenge started doing the rounds.
