She questioned critics and pointed out the misconceptions surrounding body image. She clarified that her fuller figure was merely the result of weight gained in the right places, emphasising that her physique is entirely natural.

Wendy further expressed her dismay that people are only now acknowledging her curves, recalling the bullying she faced in the early days of her music career.

"So y’all want to tell me before BBL Africans didn’t have a natural shape like mine? What's with this BBL tag… Is it because I have gained at the right places?"
"Y’all should get a life and stop being naive. What you are seeing is 100% natural, and it is not my fault y’all didn’t realise it earlier because of the Bullying when I stepped into the game. I’ve got it since! Humans will always have something to say. It’s either your booty is too big or too small, or too fake. Mind your business! Africa Wake Up."
