Big Brother Naija season six winner and singer, Hazel Oyeze, fondly called Whitemoney, has urged his colleagues to respect the creative business and professionals by paying designers for their outfit.
Africans and Nigerian celebrities gathered at the Eko Hotel and Suites for the 10th AMVCA, which was a glamorous extravaganza.
However, Whitemoney’s warning about taking on debt from designers, emphasizes how crucial it is to manage your finances, even during well-publicized occasions.
In a video message posted on Instagram, the former Big Brother Naija winner stated, “I’ve been receiving calls regarding my absence from the AMVCA. How would I go, are you not seeing what these brothers are wearing?
“Take a look at Neo Akpofure’s dress. Elozonam was dripping in an all-white outfit like an angel deported from heaven to go create his own heaven on earth. Saga was like all these pink Barbie gentlemen. His dress was awesome. I can’t match their styles. To make an outfit befitting for the AMVCA, you would spend not less than one million naira and you will still have to pay for a stylist.
“I’m not an actor so I’m not even bothered. AMVCA na pressure. Imagine paying over a million naira for a dress you would only wear once. The ladies were just killing it. Next year we move. I can’t relate. But please, make sure you pay your designers in full to avoid them calling you out on social media.” he said.
