Musician Vyroota, born Musigazi Abdul Aziz, has once again stirred conversation online after appearing in videos with painted nails and braided hair.
While manicured nails are gaining popularity and are increasingly seen as a fashion statement, especially among global celebrities, such trends remain uncommon among male Ugandan artists. Vyroota, however, is challenging these traditional gender norms and facing criticism for it.
In the viral clips, Vyroota is seen unbraiding his hair and blow-drying it with a handheld dryer. In another video, he showcases a dramatic black-themed manicure, unapologetically embracing his unique style.
This isn’t the first time his fashion choices have raised eyebrows. In the past, he’s faced backlash for wearing short shorts, tight sweatshirts, and sporting a nose piercing.
Despite the criticism, Vyro remains unfazed, staying true to himself and continuing to express his individuality.
While some social media users have condemned his appearance, others have come to his defense, applauding him for embracing modern trends. Supporters argue that such bold self-expression is not only valid but essential in today’s fast-paced entertainment world.
