Ghanaian musician Wendy Shay
Ghanaian musician Wendy Shay has expressed disappointment in some netizens over what she described as an “abuse” of a minor who was seen dancing to her song at an event.
In a video that went viral on social media on April 3, 2025, a young girl, believed to be in her teens, was seen vigorously dancing to Wendy Shay‘s new song “Too Late”, which contains vulgar lyrics.
The video seemed to disgust some netizens, who criticised the musician for performing in front of children, given the nature of the song.
Others went as far as name-calling the teenager, criticising her dance moves, which they described as sensual.
In response to these criticisms, Wendy Shay took to social media to vent.
She explained that the young girl is talented and confident, urging those quick to criticise her to focus on her potential instead.
“My performance over the weekend has put light on a little girl dancing passionately and happily in the crowd and it’s surprising how some people cannot easily identify a talented and confident child when they see one.
“I see a lot of negative comments under the post, and it is heartbreaking because what I see is a beautiful, talented, and confident young girl who could become a professional dancer or a musician if she is carefully guided,” she said.
She further lambasted individuals who enjoy tearing down young talents to refrain from such acts, adding, “Let us advance our mindset and see positivity in things like this.”
