Tiwa Savage Reveals that she also Battles Self Esteem

Nigerian music Diva, Tiwa Savage, has spoken up about some of her personal battles. This is coming after series of messages she says she gets in her social media DMs from young people.

According to her, after growing up with the society’s definition of beauty, she sometimes considers herself not so pretty. This however, is affected by the make up, push up bras and beautiful girls on social media.

Tiwa Savage says she is not perfect.

Hinting at some of her imperfections, the singer stated that she is also in the battle with self esteem. She is not perfect, she said.

I get a lot of messages from young girls who are depressed with low self-esteem because they don’t feel pretty like the social media girls they see every day and my heart breaks because I feel like that too sometimes.

“We are all in this together, I’m not perfect, and not the prettiest, sexiest, richest but I’ll remain kind and seek after God’s heart because none of the others matters to Him.

“Ultimately God’s approval is all we need”

On fitting into the definition of beauty with the help of beauty enhancers, she wrote:

“Some people are born beautiful, flawless skin, long curly hair, fair skin but some of us grew up looking at the world’s definition of beauty and found ourselves not fitting into that standard but with the help of makeup, filters and push up bras we feel a little closer.

“What happens when you take all that off and you stare at yourself in the mirror, do you still think you are beautiful?

“You should because you are and when we meet our creator face to face it’s those with the kindest hearts that will stand as most beautiful.

“So while we work on the outside make sure we work on our hearts.”
