Salma Mumin has asserted she is not a slay queen as some people think.<\/p>\n
“I just love to look good, that’s all,” she explained. “I just love to look good while doing what I do best, working hard.”<\/p>\n
The actress spoke to Nana Romeo on Accra 100.5 FM.<\/p>\n
“My work is about clothing; wearing them, modelling, and looking good. People mistook my job for being a slay queen because I was fashionably dressed up all the time,” Salma noted.<\/p>\n
“I want people to buy my clothing, as they perceive me as the fashionista that I am.<\/p>\n
“If I were a banker, I am not sure I would wear five different clothes within a week and take pictures.”<\/p>\n
The entrepreneur bemoaned the misconception about her job and sense of fashion, especially because, according to her, she has been in the fashion business since her senior high school days.<\/p>\n
“I’ve got a tattoo, I’m very beautiful, God has given me glory, I sell clothes, I wear them, and I pose in them – you have to do this for others to see and want to patronise,” Salma said.<\/p>\n
“It looks like slaying, but it’s not.”<\/p>\n
Salma lamented the slay queen, “Tag has affected me a lot.”.<\/p>\n
“It got to a time my colleagues didn’t want to [associate] with me,” she explained, adding she even recently lost a deal over the same stigma.<\/p>\n
“It broke me down,” the actress said, with a hint of crying in her voice.<\/p>\n
She indicated, also, that the episode led her to question God. However, she expressed her resolute confidence in God’s vindication.<\/p>\n
On the pros of her job, Salma testified that being in the beauty industry has taken her around the world to popular destinations like the US, China, Turkey, etc.<\/p>\n
She emphasised “seeing flashes of my future.” She approached life daringly even when she was “unsure” or “scared.”.<\/p>\n
“It’s either you do or you die,” she asserted.<\/p>\n
“If you come to my workplace, I am always looking like this while at it, and I will pick up a broom and sweep and all of that,” Salma said.<\/p>\n
She noted her workers usually protested her working around the establishment, but she did not give in because before their employment she was doing those chores anyway.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
