2023 Headies: Ayra Starr rejects Best Female Artiste award
Oyinkansola Sarah Aderibigbe, professionally as Ayra Starr, has rejected the Best Female Artiste Award at the 2023 Headies Award held on Sunday.
In a tweet on Monday, she said she would never be grateful for winning a category that wasn’t even deemed fit to be announced on stage.
The ‘Bloody Samaritan’ crooner added that female artists like Tiwa Savage, whom she saw record four hit songs in a night, and Tems, who breathes and lives for music, deserve better.

She wrote, “I will never be grateful for winning a category that wasn’t even deemed fit to be announced on stage! Best female artist na beans?
“We work hard, every single one of us! I’ve seen Tiwa record 4 hit songs in the same night, Tems breaths and lives for music, we didn’t deserve such nonchalance! Nigeria, you didn’t raise me to settle for less.”
