Nigerian artist Ruger has ignited a social media firestorm after sharing his controversial take on women who undergo Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) surgery. Taking to his X (formerly Twitter) account, the singer-songwriter claimed that he automatically associates the cosmetic procedure with a negative personality.
In his post, he wrote:
“When I see girl with BBL I dey straight up think say dem get bad character. Be like the procedure dey come with small attitude and ogba, he said.”
Public Reaction
The statement immediately went viral, drawing sharp criticism from users who felt the comment was judgmental and unnecessary. Many argued that his words reflect a broader societal bias against women who choose body enhancement.
One user remarked:
“Ruger, this one no follow at all. Keep your preference without insulting others.”
Another added:
“BBL or not, attitude is individual. Stop generalising women!”
The incident has triggered a wider debate regarding body autonomy and the tendency to police women’s choices within the entertainment sphere. While Ruger has yet to clarify his intent, the post continues to fuel heated discussions about why women’s bodies are so frequently subjected to public scrutiny.
