“I stopped wearing revealing clothes after being mistaken for a “runs girl” – Comedian Ashmusy.”

The popular Nigerian skit maker and philanthropist, Amarachi Amusi who is professionally known as Ashmusy has narrated how she had to stop wearing revealing outfits after being mistaken for a “runs girl”.

In a perceptive podcast interview with Phyna, Ashmusy revealed that displaying her physique regularly in videos resulted in people associating her with a particular lifestyle known as “runs girl.”

According to the influencer, she had to sit back and try to pinpoint why people perceived her in a certain way. Going through her videos, she came to understand that it was due to her revealing outfits.

She said that she thought she was being entertaining and silly for her viewers, unaware that their minds were focused on something else.

In her own words, “Before I rebranded a few months ago, I used to wear sexy outfits. As a young girl, one would want to show one’s body. I did not know that I was being perceived as a prostitute. Meanwhile, I knew how much I was working behind the camera, running a business, and shooting adverts every day. With all of that, I was able to buy a car and house. It pained me when people insinuated that those things were bought for me by a man.”

“I was later in my quiet zone, thinking about why I was being judged that way, despite all my works that they people were seeing. I then started watching my videos, seeing that most times my body was exposed, with my nipples even showing. I was being goofy, but I did not know that people had been looking at something else.”
