Published on August 6, 2020, Akothee's daughter Rue Baby has been making headlines with her outspoken views on beauty and self-acceptance.
Recently, Rue Baby took to social media to share a post-workout photo with her mother, Akothee, emphasizing the importance of taking care of one's body.
"The world will not give you what you want. It will give you what you deserve. You want a good, healthy body, work on it. 25 minutes a day. You are doing nothing in bed after eight hours of sleep. Use your time wisely," Akothee posted to her 2.2 million Instagram followers.
However, Rue Baby has also faced criticism for her comments on skin color, particularly after she stated last year that she prefers dark-skinned men.
"I don't do lightskins plus nitapigwa na mwenyewe na sina uwezo," Rue Baby dismissed, sparking a heated debate among her fans.
Despite the controversy, Rue Baby remains unapologetic about her views, encouraging her fans to appreciate their own unique qualities.
"What do you love about yourself that you feel others don’t appreciate? For me, it’s my body and skin colour," she charged.
