Singer Portable has joined the chorus of voices criticizing the decision to award trans woman Bobrisky the title of ‘best-dressed woman’ at the ‘Beast of Two Worlds’ movie premiere.
In a post on his Instagram, Portable expressed his disappointment with the judges’ decision, arguing that Bobrisky, as a transgender individual, was not the appropriate fit for the female category.
He began his statement by questioning the validity of awarding Bobrisky, stating, “I heard that Bobrisky was given the best-dressed female at a movie premiere, is Bobrisky a woman? He’s not. It’s all artificial.”
At the premiere event, Bobrisky made a striking appearance in a long statement, sequinned gown with matching black lipstick, securing the win in the female category. Meanwhile, Big Brother Naija alum, Groovy, clinched the win in the male category. Both were awarded a cash prize of ₦1 million each. However, Bobrisky’s win sparked controversy and backlash on social media.
Portable further questioned why the female attendees at the event were not recognized for the grand prize instead. He criticized the decision to award a transgender woman in the female category, asserting, “All the ladies and actresses that were at the premiere were snubbed, so which one of you gave a transgender woman an award for women? You shouldn’t have. He’s a man who paid to have breast implants done. What are our children supposed to say?”
