Radio presenter Prim Asiimwe has expressed her confusion over the behaviour of some Ugandan women during a recent performance by Congolese musician Ya Levis.
The NRG Radio host shared her thoughts on social media after witnessing videos of local women seemingly infatuated with the international artist.
I don’t find anything sexy about Ya Levis, and I don’t know why girls were all over him during his performance yesterday.
This sentiment was said in her observation of the widespread obsession some Ugandan women seem to develop for international musicians, often without knowing much about them personally.
The videos that surfaced on social media showed Ya Levis interacting closely with several women who appeared eager to catch his attention.
Some of these women were reported to be in relationships, but this didn’t seem to affect their willingness to engage with the artist.
I saw videos all over this Congolese singer Ya Levis, and for sure, I don’t see anything sexy on him that would let ladies get stuck on him like that. It’s insane that it happened that way, she said.
The incident has sparked conversations on social media about the tendency of some Ugandan women to idolise foreign artists.
