Grammy-winning Nigerian singer Tems has responded candidly and powerfully to years of unsolicited and crude comments about her body.

Following a performance at the Root Picnic 2025, where she dazzled fans with her vocals and stage presence, Tems took to social media to address the ongoing scrutiny of her body—a conversation she says has dragged on for seven years.

Quoting a comment from an online troll, Tems made it clear that she’s had enough of people dissecting her physique, writing:

“Okay 7 years in. It’s time to pack it up. I never thought I’d need to say it but you are all weird.
‘It’s small, it’s flat, it’s fat.’ Dog IT’S MINE.”

She continued, hitting back at those who reduce her artistry and presence to her physical form:

"Show us your bumbum’ lol so me too I will turn and say ‘see’, Nah show ME yours first?? See how that feels?

It’s just a body. I will add and lose weight. I never once hid my body, I just didn’t feel the need to prove or disprove anyone.”

Tems concluded by emphasizing her self-worth and autonomy, declaring that people’s discomfort or obsession with her body is not her problem:

“The more you don’t like my body the better for me actually. But it’s enough now. Move on from my bum.”

Una don provoke Tems

Me that I like bug butts, calm down & focus on your fans & ignore trolls. They finally got under her skin, seriously she has been objectified too many times for too long. Wearing that type of piece, not even a cloth, to perform on stage, it is because she knows her body is part of her craft and entertainment and different people will have different opinions.

Is this part of your job description

She should be thankful to God for making her BIG . If she didn't choose the music career path,she might have ended up being food for our Nigerian senators wey no dey use their eyes see thick women

Enough is enough

COMRADES, please anyone who understands this balderdash put up here should educate me

Like, was this necessary. If you want to become a gospel artist, let us know.

Hmm. Clout. Chasing. Who is body shaming who.. Call them out or forever be silent.

Hmmm

Though i am not really a fan of all these gen z artists b their songs but the few I know about this lady, she's composed n I don't think she flaunt her body that much.

Something tiwa savage will die to have.

Funny enough I don't know any of her song except essence ft WizKid

But she's beautiful.....na wa for people sha. She's just not the complete glam up type but she's pretty

If she goes under the knife now, in order to get a banging body and ends her life in the process, same people will still blame her. In life, don't strive to satisfy others. So long as you're satisfied with your look or deeds, The rest is inconsequential. If you dare exceed your elastic limit in life, na your luck.

Tems’ words are a masterclass in self-love, confidence, and boundary-setting. Her boldness in standing up to body-shaming while reaffirming her worth beyond physical appearances is powerful and inspiring. A true queen who reminds us that our bodies are ours—not up for public debate. Bravo, Tems! 👑

A woman receives so much compliment that the smallest negative opinion wounds her ego

A man is insulted so often that he cherish even a little compliment.


Men & Women are NOT the same 💯

Tems and conditions



I like the babe sha, if not that I have 3 wives already, I would have added her to the list

Tems is a BBW. At thirty, she’ll find it hard to mould her physique. She should put down eba Ondo and use a treill three times weekly.

Make una free her, I beg

Enough for where.

Hit the gym

Your live perfectly is poor
