Many top celebrities, including Toyin Abraham, Iyabo Ojo, Denrele Edun, Femi Adebayo, and many others, stormed the Circle Mall, Lekki, in Lagos State, in mysterious and show-stopping outfits for the event.

 

However, Bobrisky was adjudged the ‘Best-Dressed’ female at the movie premiere and received a cash prize of N1 million.

Reacting, in a video shared on her Instagram page on Monday, Dayo Amusa condemned the award given to Bobrisky, stating that it was disrespectful and mockery to women present at the event.

 

She said, “I was at a colleague of mine premiere yesterday, they said the best dressers are to be picked; one female and one male best dresser. Don’t get me wrong, the winner could be anyone but definitely not a crossdresser. I mean, what’s wrong with us? I don’t understand it.

 

“I cannot imagine the judges disrespecting every woman that was there. You had to pick a winner, a female best dressed and a male best dressed and you watered the efforts of all the women at the event by giving the best dressed female to a crossdresser. I don’t understand, what is wrong with us?

 

“If you feel you want to honour crossdressers, you should have created their own category instead of disrespecting women by giving a crossdresser the best dressed female award.”

 

NewsOnline Nigeria reports that Singer Portable berated the judges for giving Bobrisky the award, stressing that it wasn’t fair to the women present at the event.

 

Portable noted that Bobrisky is transgender and shouldn’t be regarded as the same with women.

The ‘Best Dressed Female’ award presented to popular crossdresser, Bobrisky, recently at a movie premiere has continued to stir reactions.
DAILY POST reports that Bobrisky was adjudged the Best Dressed Female at movie premiere in Lagos over the weekend and received a cash prize of N1 million.

However, reacting in a video message shared via his Instagram account, Portable berated the judges for giving Bobrisky the award, stressing that it wasn’t fair to the women present at the event.

Portable noted that Bobrisky is a transgender and shouldn’t be regarded as the same with women.

 

He said, “I heard that Bobrisky won Best Dressed Female award at a movie premiere. Is he a woman? Isn’t he a transgender? He might have done BBL and breast surgery but that does not qualify him as woman.

 

“There were many beautiful women there but the judges gave a man a award meant for women. Bobrisky is a man.”

 

He also threatened to “beat” Bobrisky for “disgracing” men.

 

Meanwhile, Bobrisky has responded to Portable, threatening to “deal” with him if he doesn’t desist from dragging him.

 

On his Instagram story, Bobrisky wrote in Pidgin, “@portablebaeby ogun wan kpa ur mama? Wetin concern me with ur life? I resemble ur fellow people in d ghetto? Na God go punish you. If you try shit with me i will take you to where they will deal with u and you ur dead career will end finally.”
