Actress and entrepreneur Fella Makafui has sparked controversy and faced criticism following a viral video where she promotes products from Simply Snatched, owned by her estranged husband Medikal.
In the video, Fella Makafui is seen wearing a cropped tank top and sweatpants, showcasing her toned midsection to highlight the purported effects of the weight loss products. The video drew attention online, with viewers scrutinizing her endorsement amidst recent revelations.
The backlash intensified after Medikal, in a Snapchat video, alleged that he had financed cosmetic surgery for Fella Makafui to enhance her physique, specifically to boost her appeal as an ambassador for the products.
“I paid for the surgery to give her the curves she wanted,” Medikal stated in his Snapchat statement, suggesting a strategy to enhance sales through the celebrity endorsement.
The revelation sparked widespread debate, with social media users questioning the authenticity of Fella Makafui’s promotion efforts and expressing disappointment over the perceived deception.
Despite the controversy surrounding her personal life and the authenticity of her physical appearance, Fella Makafui’s continued endorsement of the weight loss products has divided public opinion, with some questioning the credibility of such promotions in light of recent events.
The incident has reignited discussions on transparency in celebrity endorsements and the potential impact on consumer trust in product advertising.
Efforts to reach Fella Makafui or representatives for comment on the backlash and allegations made by Medikal were unsuccessful at the time of reporting.
