Well, If you are still in your feelings because singer Akothee opened her legs while on stage and went on to pose in very suggestive ways, she has a message for you: She doesn’t care.

The singer was for the better part of the weekend trolled, rebuked and shamed after a wild performance in Watumu. In an interview with Kiss 100, she said that that’s entertainment and she gets paid a lot of money for it.

“Legs are there to be opened and i opened them on stage where is the problem? I get paid for that. I am actually banking the money i made over the weekend. Kenya has got talent. Past that is noise. The government should nature talent and promote artistes. I am not a role model for anyone. Is government paying me to be a role model? No. My mother is a role model and she is not opening her legs on stage she was a teacher and I am not.” she fired. 

Pays my bills

A lot of people criticized the singer for the photos which were later turned into memes. She said that her hustle pays her good money and any person with a problem with that should call the police on her.

“If the government wants me to be a role model let them pay me. I built this brand for myself and that’s how I get to pay my children’s bills. Anyone who feels I am a disgrace should call police to arrest me. Where is dirty in that music. That was not for them, i was paid to do that and in euros. Anyone who feels offended should sermon me in court.” she said. 

Adding:

“I’ve made money and now my parents are here on holiday. I am not responsible for anyone’s child. They follow me at their own risk. I am not going to stop opening my legs anytime soon as long as it is paying my bills.”
