Former Big Brother Naija housemate Beatrice Nwaji has declared that she has never had cosmetic surgery.
This was revealed by the former reality star during an interview with Sunday Scoop, in which she stated that she is not opposed to cosmetic surgery but enjoys her natural body.
She said “I didn’t go under the knife. It is not as if surgery is bad. If you have the money and can stand the pain and side effects, you can do as you please with your body. But, it is very important to go to the right doctors. However, my body is 100 percent natural. I just make sure I keep fit. Sometimes, I sleep with waist trainers on.”
She also explained why she thinks schools in Nigeria should be included in the side hustle category.
Because of the constant strikes in the tertiary education system, the former housemate also recommended every Nigerian student to have side hustles.
She said, “I advised people to make schooling a ‘side hustle’ because of how often the Academic Staff Union of Universities goes on strike. I did not mean that school is not important. Education is very important but while one is schooling in Nigeria, one would do well to learn a trade.”
The mother-of-one also bemoaned the fact that single mothers are usually stereotyped.
She said, “That is the lie society tells to control women into enduring abusive relationships. A lot of young men, who are well to do, want to be with me.”
“I would like to keep that to myself and rather tell whoever wants to know to watch out for my movie where all my struggles and success stories are told,” she stated when asked if she experienced emotional damage when her ex-husband began abusing her three months into their marriage.
