Ashmusy breaks down in tears as she responds to the people who accuse her of being a ‘runs girl’

Season 6, Ep. 65
•

This was such an emotional interview.


Ashmusy has seen hell from the media and the comment section - they have questioned her talent, questioned her source of income, questioned her wealth, questioned her morals… and just thinking about all of the attacks she has had to endure, she broke down in tears on our set. 


She had to consciously change her dress sense, she tells me, because that was one of the reasons she was being stereotyped. 


Yet Amarachi Amusi is one strong woman - and she continues to conquer. 


Yes, her father didn’t provide for them when she was a child. Yes, her mother had to endure loan sharks to take care of her children. 

Yes, Ashmusy had to borrow hair to pretend to be one of the ‘big girls’ in school, and yes she had to borrow hair to start her own business. Yes, she went for over 100 (!) auditions - including Big Brother - and was not successful in any.


But, she says, she built everything by herself. There was no sugar daddy, there was no ‘runs’, no there was no cutting corners. She pulled herself up from nothing to the multiple successful businesses she owns - and, she tells me… she is just getting started. 


A boss lady, #WithChude today.
