In a subtle yet significant statement, Nollywood actress Chizzy Alichi has taken to social media to express her gratitude for her natural physique, indirectly addressing the growing trend of cosmetic enhancements among women.
Chizzy shared a candid video on her Instagram page, reflecting on her journey and preferences regarding body shape. She revealed that as a teenager, she had admired her friends’ larger Bosoms and had even resorted to using foam padding in her bras to emulate their figure.
However, Alichi’s perspective shifted over time, and she came to appreciate her natural attributes.
In the video, she exuded confidence as she celebrated her “plenty behind,” emphasizing that while the trend may now favor larger buttocks, she takes pride in her God-given features.
“So many of my friends had big Bosom, so I used to envy them… But look at it, God is amazing,” Alichi remarked in the video, highlighting the societal shift towards valuing fuller buttocks over larger Bosoms.
She said: “So I would tell you guys a story, growing up as a teenager, i preferred Bosom to nyash… Okay let me rephrase it so you guys can understand… That time, I was a very fine girl, tall, with bumbum plenty behind.
“I wished that that plenty behind was plenty in front… Like I preferred big br#ast to big nyash. So many of my friends had big br#asts so I used to envy them so sometimes I would cut foam and put in my small bra that time.
.”But look at it that God is amazing;this day and era, na big nyash dey reign. People spend Millions to acquire it but I’m rocking my natural nyash… Hehh… God is good. Moral of the story;in any situation you find yourself in, praise God because e get why”.
Alichi’s message resonated with many of her followers, who praised her for embracing her natural body and encouraging others to do the same. Her words serve as a reminder of the importance of self-acceptance and gratitude for one’s unique attributes.
As the prevalence of plastic surgery and cosmetic enhancements continues to rise, Alichi’s celebration of her natural physique offers a refreshing perspective on beauty standards and self-confidence. In an era dominated by curated images and unrealistic ideals, her authenticity serves as a beacon of empowerment for women everywhere.
