I started wearing baggy clothes to stop producers from hitting on me – Tems

Why I used to not like my body – Tems


Grammy-winning Nigerian singer, Temilade Openiyi better known as Tems has opened up on how she avoids distractions from producers when making music.

Despite having a magnificent body and physique, Tems stated that she almost lost confidence in her appearance due to distractions from producers when making music.

The Grammy award-winning Nigerian singer shared this revelation in a conversation with YouTuber and content creator Korty EO.

Tems explained that she used to dislike her body and the hatred majorly stemmed from her focus on producing and releasing music, rather than a desire to be noticed for her physical appearance.

She revealed that her body posed a career hindrance, hence, she switched from wearing cute outfits to baggy ones to reduce attention from producers, particularly when she is going to the studio to make music. In Tems’ words:

“I used to not always like my body. I just didn’t understand a lot of things. I was going to a lot of studios alone, meeting people I didn’t know and had never met. I’ll message people to ask them to teach me how to produce music for people”.

“So, because of my objective which is just wanting to make music, if my being attractive is disturbing you and stopping me from achieving my goal, I am going to help you. So, when I go to the studio, I wear like baggy clothes and I’m in my alpha mode because I want you to not be seduced by me.”
