Popular gospel singer Tope Alabi has replied critics who criticized her fashion choices stressing that her choice to always keep her hair use fashion accessories are a product of her personal decisions and not as a result of divine leading or instruction.
In a recent livestream, the Tope Alabi responded to critics, revealing that her actions are deliberate. She shared that her passion for fashion has always been present, but that she was previously constrained by finances, resulting in a more moderate style early in early days of her career
Tope Alabi said “I love beauty and fashion but I don’t have the money for it. God has never once told me never to wear earrings, necklaces or wigs, never,”
“The hair that I cover in church was never under God’s direction, I did that under my own initiative, it was intentional. I told myself that anywhere I want to minister, I would cover my hair unless I’m called to sing impromptu when I’m wearing my wig,”
“If you see me in any video where I’m not wearing earrings, just know it is because I decided not to because the meaning of the song does not warrant earrings. I’m a theater practitioner to the core so I know what look fits each song,
“When I want to shoot my videos I know how to dress for each video. Back then people used to see me eating small earrings, they just didn’t know that I only wore smaller earrings because I couldn’t afford big ones. I also considered the theme of the video shoot and the location. Do suffering people wear earrings? She added
