- Tems explained that her dislike for her body stemmed from her focus on producing and releasing music, rather than a desire to be noticed for her physical appearance.
- She shared how she stopped producers from hitting on her body by dressing in oversized clothes and avoiding flirtatious behavior.
- Tems stated that she does not flirt with men because she always feels like she “has a husband” in her music.
Newsypeople- Tems, the Nigerian singer who won a Grammy award, recently opened up about her struggle with body confidence in a conversation with YouTuber Korty EO.
She revealed that despite having a magnificent body and physique, she almost lost confidence in her appearance due to distractions from producers when she simply wanted to make music.
Tems explained that her main focus was always on producing and releasing music, not on her physical appearance.
She shared that her body posed a career hindrance, so she started wearing baggy outfits to reduce attention from producers.
“I used to not always like my body. I just didn’t understand a lot of things. I was going to a lot of studios alone, meeting people I didn’t know and had never met. I’ll message people to ask them to teach me how to produce music for people”.
“So, because of my objective which is just wanting to make music, if my being attractive is disturbing you and stopping me from achieving my goal, I am going to help you. So, when I go to the studio, I wear like baggy clothes and I’m in my alpha mode because I want you to not be seduced by me.”
Tems’ revelation highlights the challenges female artists face in the music industry when their appearance overshadows their talent and passion for creating music.
By choosing to wear baggy clothes, she took control of the narrative and ensured that producers focused on her musical abilities rather than her physical attributes.
