Meek Mill responded to her comments on his X page, formerly known as Twitter. He shared his thoughts on the issue, stating that black men in America find it unattractive when women reveal too much of their bodies. “Black men in America hate it … it’s actually a turn-off!!” he wrote.
The First Lady’s remarks have sparked a conversation about cultural identity and the influence of Western media on fashion trends in Nigeria.
