- Anita Joseph, a renowned actress, has publicly criticized Saida Boj, an influencer, for belittling Rihanna during her third pregnancy.
- Barbados singer, ASAP Rocky, is expecting her third child.
- Saida Boj criticized the singer for sacrificing her career for love, stating that she had sacrificed her career for her partner.
Popular Nollywood actress, Anita Joseph, has called out influencer Saida Boj following her remarks about global music icon, Rihanna, and her choice to embrace motherhood.
The controversy began after reports emerged that Rihanna is expecting her third child with her partner, American rapper ASAP Rocky. While many fans celebrated the news, Saida Boj took a different stance, suggesting that Rihanna had compromised her thriving music career for the sake of love.
In a post shared online, Saida expressed concern, saying she feared Rihanna might be making sacrifices that may not be worth it in the long run. “I just hope her man is worth it,” she said.
Anita Joseph didn’t hold back in her response. The actress firmly reminded Saida that Rihanna has had a long, successful career — one that began before the influencer was even a child.
According to Anita, Rihanna may have shifted focus to family life, but she continues to earn massively through royalties from her music and other ventures.
Anita Joseph said in part …
“Is Rihanna your mate? When Rihanna started singing, e be like say you still dey primary school. If she doesn’t want to sing anymore, na oyibo she be, she dey sing, she dey write. So even if she doesn’t sing from now till next 10 years, she’s still going to be collecting royalties. Do you think it is easy to get pregnant, have your babies and train them properly?”
Her statement serves as a strong defense of women who choose to prioritize motherhood while also reminding critics that success can take many forms — including financial independence through past achievements.
