Ghanaian actress and social media influencer Nana Adjoa Lovia has responded to the backlash she received over her ‘indecent’ outfit at the 2025 Telecel Ghana Music Awards (TGMAs).
After receiving criticism online for showing too much cleavage during the event, the actress explained in an interview on the Afropodstudios podcast that her look was a creative decision made with her stylist, not an attempt to reveal too much skin.
“I didn’t go for naked fashion, I picked two different outfits and I made my stylist put them together, I wasn’t showing,” she stated.
Lovia stated that many people assumed she was showing too much because of her body type, not the design of the outfit itself. According to her, if someone else had worn the same dress, it wouldn’t have caused this much attention.
“I wasn’t naked, just that I have the body. My breasts are a bit huge, my buttocks too small dey, imagine somebody else had worn that dress, it wouldn’t have gained the attention my got,” she explained.
She also revealed that her presence at the TGMAs, she was paid to be there. Her stylist, she said, paid her GH¢15,000 just to wear the outfit and make an appearance.
“For me to even appear at TGMA, I was paid by my designer, who paid me about GH¢15,000 to be there, people pay me to wear outfits, and some even pay more,” she shared.
Nana Adjoa Lovia further noted that the body parts people often see her exposing, are not for fashion or attention, but they are part of her brand, which brings her income.
“The things I have been showing, do you think it’s anything? It’s money,” she added.
