Upcoming Nigerian Afrobeats star Ayra Starr has announced that she is not bothered by any potential criticism she may face for opening for US musician Chris Brown on his upcoming tour.
Despite Brown’s history of assaulting his then-girlfriend Rihanna in 2009, Starr remains unfazed and focused on her work.
In a recent interview with the BBC’s Focus on Africa podcast, Starr expressed her readiness for any backlash, stating, “I’m prepared, I’m ready… I won’t respond, I’ll let people do their thing and I’m just going to work.”
The talented singer also revealed her admiration for Rihanna, referring to her as her “queen,” and expressing a desire to collaborate with her in the future.

Despite the controversy surrounding her decision to tour with Chris Brown, Starr remains focused on her music and is looking forward to future collaborations with her idol, Rihanna.
As she prepares to embark on this new chapter in her career, Starr is determined to stay true to herself and her passion for music.
Her resilience and dedication to her craft continue to inspire fans around the world, solidifying her status as a rising star in the Afrobeats music scene.
