Size 8, a popular Kenyan gospel artiste, has found herself at the center of a heated debate after appearing on the reality show 'Dine with the Murayas' wearing a wig and full makeup while in bed.

The show, which airs on NTV every Wednesday at 10 pm, has been accused of scripting by some viewers who questioned the authenticity of Size 8's appearance.

Reactions from Kenyans on social media ranged from shock and amusement to accusations of acting. Some viewers questioned why Size 8 would go to bed still wearing makeup, while others accused the Murayas of scripting their reality show.

As the debate raged on, some viewers defended Size 8, saying she looked beautiful even in bed. Others, however, were not convinced, with some accusing her of 'acting' for the cameras.
