Can everyone just leave Ayra Starr alone? [Opinion]

The singer recently released the much-anticipated visuals for her single ‘Hot Body’. As expected, the video was a sizzling, bold, self-assured display that effectively captured the song’s message.

But almost instantly, social media erupted. While some praised it as empowering for women, many others took aim at the “risqué” nature of the visuals.

One comment that gained traction suggested the video failed to showcase body diversity.
“Should have included all body types, that’s just my opinion tho, cause this song is a very good song that deserves displays of different bodies.” 

This comment has since attracted debates about how the music video should have been representative of all sizes of women, especially since the singer stated that “Hot Body was for all bodies”.

Other comments followed the trope of pedantic observers who are always critical of her looks and style.
“Just why? I know you’re trying to promote your song, but c’mon, you’ve promoted so many songs with you posing as a stripper, inasmuch as I like this, but you shouldn’t.”

What exactly do people want from Ayra Starr?
