Nigeria Good Girl Gone Bad (Caroline Sam) known as Maheeda
in the entertainment industry may
be the bad girl most parents
wouldn’t want within a yard of
their wards, but the former
prostitute turned musician has an
ace up her sleeve.
In a riveting interview with
Potpourri in the year, the pretty
mother of one gave reasons why
she is using sex and nudity to sell
her music, first gospel, before
really going secular.
According to her, she is treading
the path most Nigerian
entertainers wouldn’t dare because
of their inhibitions.
“I had this vision of what’s
happening right now. Like I’m very
bad, like I’m the baddest girl in
Nigeria which is not true. So, my
vision is actually to see my
posters in people’s bedrooms and
stuff like that. I want to be that
sex symbol one can fantasize
about” she boasted.
Giving her reason for wanting her
nude and sex posters to adorn
people’s bedroom, the Lasgidi
Chick and Naija Bad Girl crooner
explained it is a sort of brand she
is trying to build.
“Because it works abroad, it could
work here too. I had my
challenges. They are still there but
there’s no stopping me because I
know that for anything new you
have to fight for it. I am leveraging
on being a sex symbol because
sex sells. I want to make money
and also, I want to make my name.
It’s the only space in the Nigerian
music industry that is just there,
everybody is scared to tread on
such a path, so I’m daring it” she
said.
