  • Enlarging my buttocks was one of the good things that happened to me- Seyi Shay

    When you think of Seyi Shay, words that come to mind are sexy, svelte and outspoken. The talented songstress caused commotion on social media recently when a picture of her dressed in a transparent outfit surfaced.

     

    From indications, the singer wasn’t wearing panties under the dress. However Seyi Shay seem not to care about the backlash she got over the provocative dress. She revealed that the outfit was worn in New York and not in Nigeria.

     

    When ask about what she did to have added to her backside, she said: “I did not get this big bum through injections or surgery. If I did not do surgery on my boobs, is it my backside I would then operate on? Someone advised me to be doing squats. Till now, I spend most of my time in the gym. Having big buttocks was one of the good things that happened to me this year. I do 100 squats in the morning, in the afternoon I do 50 and then at night, I do another 100. It hurts a lot but it is worth it; I would not lie about that, the pain is worth it.

     

    “I have been getting a lot of compliments since my backside added. I wanted to do a boob job but I changed my mind and the reason is that I realised that I could fit into almost anything especially sample sizes from designers. One of the things that Sokayna complimented me for when I was in New York was my body. He said that his clothes were not specifically made for African bodies but I have an extraordinary body and I would be ‘finished’ if I did a boob job. Everything fits, so I am happy with what God gave me.”
