For many years, female celebrities or women in general are always objectified or sexualised by the general public. Unfortunately, not much has changed over the years as people still tend to focus on their bodies rather than their skills, talents, or personalities. Even if the celeb is fully covered from head-to-toe, some people, especially men, will still find something about them to sexualise.
Some Malaysian celebs are not afraid to speak up against being sexualised or criticised for their bodies or the outfits they wear. Actress and singer Janna Nick did not hold back when netizens criticised her for a “racy” photo she posted last year and earlier today (Wednesday, 21st September), she finally spoke out about the recent TikTok video that’s been going viral.
Recently, actress Janna Nick attended a screening event for her new movie “Juang” in which she starred alongside Zul Ariffin, Zizan Razak, and the late Adibah Noor. Her friendly appearance in a fan’s TikTok video went viral when her butt became the main focus of male fans who left lewd comments. The 27-year-old took to her Instagram to share her thoughts on the issue.
“Even if you want to use clickbait titles, make sure your sources are genuine and not manipulating the readers’ minds,” she said in her IG story post. The “Juang” star elaborated that the viral video was filmed by a fan who brought her daughter along to the event and that she simply turned around to wave at them. “I did not show off my butt! Of course, you’d see my butt from behind!” she added.
Using lyrics from her hit single “Gatal”, the singer made a statement about how hard it is to be a woman as they’re always seen as sex symbols. She even called out those who sexualised her in the TikTok video. “Perverts will even get turned on just by looking at an apple,” the actress wrote. Janna then shared IG stories from fans she met at the movie screening event to show that these should’ve been the main focus instead of her butt.
Janna Nick has made her point and hopes that people will stop objectifying women in whatever they do or how they dress. In other news, the actress recently bought her second home and treated her fans to a tour around her new crib.
