On today’s episode of trolls body-shaming women online, singer Simi found herself in the spotlight.
The talented artist had posted a video on Instagram, sarcastically apologizing for wearing a bikini as part of her album promotion. In the video, Simi humorously apologized, saying she was sorry for wearing a bikini and that next time, she would wear a kaftan.
While the video was intended to be lighthearted, one netizen named @worldclasselnas commented, “You just don’t have a good shape for that outfit.” Simi, known for her witty online presence, clapped back by saying she was sorry for not getting a BBL done before recording the video of herself in a bikini.
Despite the negative comment, many of Simi’s followers played along with her humour and lent their own sarcastic inputs.
Below are some reactions:

– @nancybraidedwig_empire noted, “What d heck, it doesn’t feel like you are remorseful, you sound like you are mocking your fans. Fam, I feel your fans mean well for you, and you should accord them a little of your decency. I still love you though.”
Simi has always handled online trolls with a clever and non-confrontational approach that leaves little room for further argument. Her humorous responses often diffuse negativity and engage her fans in a positive way.
The talented singer recently released a new album, and her husband, Adekunle Gold, couldn’t be prouder. Despite the occasional negativity, Simi continues to shine and receive support from her fans and loved ones.
