In a lighthearted and cheeky moment during a recent interview, Afrobeats queen Tiwa Savage had fans buzzing after expressing her admiration for fellow star Ayra Starr’sfashion choices particularly her signature short skirts.
With a playful smile, Tiwa didn't hold back her thoughts:
“Personally, I love Ayra Starr so much because of her short skirts but I want her to wear even shorter skirts, like very much shorter!”
The comment has since gone viral on social media, with fans laughing, debating, and praising the mutual respect and camaraderie between two of Nigeria’s most stylish music icons.
Ayra Starr, known for her bold Gen Z fashion and confident attitude, has made short skirts a staple part of her personal brand often pairing them with edgy tops, boots, and bold accessories. While some critics have questioned her bold wardrobe choices, many fans (and now Tiwa Savage herself) see it as a symbol of self-expression, confidence, and modern African femininity.
Tiwa’s statement comes across not just as fashion commentary, but as a celebration of individuality and freedom of style in the industry especially among female artists who continue to redefine what it means to be bold, talented, and unapologetically themselves.
Social media reactions have ranged from laughter to admiration:
“Aunty Tiwa is a whole vibe!”
“Now we need an Ayra Starr x Tiwa Savage collab with matching skirts!”
Whether joking or serious, one thing is clear: Tiwa Savage supports the new generation of artists and isn’t afraid to show it with flair, humor, and style.
