Nollywood actress Dayo Amusa expressed her dismay after transgender woman Bobrisky was selected as the 'best-dressed woman' at the 'Beast of Two Worlds' movie premiere. Amusa took to her Instagram account on Monday, March 25, 2024, to voice her frustration over the outcome of the event. "Naturally, I don't do this but I felt the need to do this," she said. "I am not happy because I went to a colleague's premiere yesterday and then they said that the best dressed was to be picked. One female best dresser and one male best dresser. Don't get me wrong it could be anyone yes but definitely not a cross-dresser," she said.
Bobrisky won in a statement long gown adorned with sequins, along with matching black lipstick, in the female category. Meanwhile, Big Brother Naija alum Groovy won in the male category. Both were awarded ₦1 million as a cash prize.
Amusa, visibly taken aback by the judges' decision at the premiere, accused them of disrespecting all the biological women present at the event.
"What is wrong with us? When did we become this? I don't understand how the judges disrespected every woman who made an effort to be at that event. Even if it's 5 kobo an individual used to put their looks together, why is it that when it was time to pick the best-dressed female, you watered down the efforts of all the individuals at that event by giving it to a cross-dresser? What is wrong with us? I don't understand it," she continued.
The actress revealed that she was so appalled by the outcome that she left the premiere after Bobrisky was declared the winner.
"If you feel like the crossdresser has merited an award, create a category for them and give them their own. Not that you would disrespect every man and woman who came to that event by giving the best-dressed female to a crossdresser. Are the judges okay?? I had to walk out of that event," she sneered.
Bobrisky reacted to her post saying, "I love you regardless."
