Speaking about young women being scantily dressed, and regrets over her own scandalous outfit choice, Jennifer Eliogu said:

JENNIFER ELIOGU: When I think about young girls and the way we objectify ourselves these days, sexualize ourselves, it's sickening for me. Why can't the girls aspire to be like decent women? Like Chimamanda? Why does it always have to be about the frivolities before necessities? I thought about it, there are young girls out there doing well and nobody is commending them. When I'm singing to young girls, some of them will do videos and send to me. If you send me a video where you're half nude and you're singing my song, I'm not going to repost it. Well, youthful exubarrance plays a role.

When I was younger, I was married already, but there was one dress I wore, very scandalous. That was the first and the last time I wore that dress. I was feeling very cool at the time, but then even the public had an issue saying "Ah ah, Jennifer this is not you". Naturally, you'd want to show off a bit of skin, but now it's become excessive. Na me advice myself. Oh yes. There was a day my daughter saw it. I have an 18 year old now. Then she was about ten, she saw it and said mummy what were you thinking? I said I'm asking myself too. So if you have to be a role model, you can't do half measure, you have to go all the way. It doesn't mean you don't dress well, it doesn't mean you don't live a normal life, but there's got to be a boundary. You have to draw a line and know when not to cross that line because those watching you and looking up to you think that everything you do is correct.
