Veteran Afrobeats singer, Jaywon, has sparked controversy after criticising the outfit choice of Grammy-nominated artist Ayra Starr in a recent social media post.
The reaction came after a viral photo of Ayra Starr wearing a revealing blue bra top that showed much of her cleavage circulated online. The image triggered debates among fans, with one social media user directly asking Jaywon for his thoughts.
On X (formerly Twitter), the fan wrote: “Bro, Ayra Starr just posted this hot photo. Any comments?”
In response, Jaywon replied: “She no get mama and papa?” — a remark many interpreted as questioning her upbringing and whether she has parental guidance.
His comment quickly ignited mixed reactions online. While some agreed with his view, others accused him of overstepping and policing the young singer’s personal choices.
Ayra Starr has often been a subject of online criticism for what some Nigerians label “indecent dressing.” However, she has remained unapologetic about her fashion style.
The singer has previously shared that she lost her father at a young age and was raised by her mother, a detail that resurfaced in conversations following Jaywon’s remark.
Despite the backlash, Ayra Starr continues to express herself through bold fashion choices, maintaining her signature style on and off stage.
