It’s annoying tying my success to men, it’s my hardwork — Ashmusy

Popular skit maker and influencer, Ashmusy emphasizes how hurtful it is when people attribute her success to men rather her personal hard work.

She made this known while speaking in a recent interview with Punch Saturday Beats as she decries how the society are quick to attribute women’s success to men.

The comedienne said:

“Linking a woman’s success to men can be annoying and hurtful. That is the reason I want to rebrand myself. It can be hurtful when a young girl works so hard, and all her efforts are linked to a man.

“After I reflected on everything I had been doing so far, from my dressing to my videos, I decided to correct them by changing that narrative. I am still an entertainer and I still have to entertain in some way, but it will be done in a better way.”

“The idea of rebranding myself has been in my head since 2022, but I just wanted to be sure I was ready; and also I wanted clear all my pending deals. I felt the need to leave that stage for another one.

“Covering up myself (in outfits) is a part of my rebranding. I hated the fact that a man was said to be the source of my success. That narrative was hurtful, because I know how hard I work to make every single dime. I will ascribe my success to God, consistency and hard work.”

Speaking on what about her she’s most proud of, she said:

“I have been able to build myself to a certain level in every aspect without having to depend on any man. My family has been supportive too.”
