Following the awarding of popular crossdresser Idris Olarenwaju, known as Bobrisky, as the ‘Best Dressed Female’ at the Beasts of Two Worlds movie premiere held on Sunday at Circle Mall, Lekki, Lagos State, Social media has been in uproar.
At the event, two attendees were supposed to be given awards for ‘Best Dressed Female’ and ‘Best Dressed Male’ with the most impressive fashion taste. However, social media users where disappointed as two men where given the award instead.

Bobrisky who now identifies as a woman after his boobs surgery on January 5, 2024 where he shared on Instagram his progress so far. Ever since then he has taken out time to show off his boobs from time to time on his Instagram page. It’s safe to note that Bobrisky announced earlier this month that he had acquired a vagina. Although he has not posted any clips online showing off his self in a bikini like most influencers so the public has their doubt. Considering how much he shows off his boobs one would expect him to do the same with bikini photos if he really did. I guess if he still has a male genital and a female mammal gland it is safe to characterize him as a hermaphrodite until proven otherwise.
Actress Dayo Amusan, who attended the premiere, walked out after Bobrisky was named the winner.
In a video on her Instagram page on Monday, the actress condemned the award.
She expressed disappointment in the judges who picked Bobrisky, which she considered disrespectful to the women who attended the event.
“I attended the premiere of a colleague yesterday, where they announced that the Best Dressers would be chosen—one female and one male. Let me clarify: the winner could be anyone, but certainly not a crossdresser. I mean, what’s the issue here? I don’t understand it.
“I can’t fathom the judges disrespecting every woman present. You had to select a winner, both a female and male, best-dressed, and yet you undermine the effort of all the women, thereby awarding the best-dressed female title to a crossdresser. I don’t understand; what’s wrong with us?” she said.
Expressing shock at Bobrisky’s emergence, actress Toyin Abraham questioned the event organiser’s decision.
Abraham, in a video that captured her, Bobrisky, and others at the event, expressed shock that the crossdresser beat all female celebrities and guests to emerge as the winner.
She said, “Bobrisky as the best-dressed female? If I give you an uppercut! Are you all insane that Bobrisky is winning Best Female? Are you crazy? Well, you better share some of that money with me.”
Similarly, controversial singer Portable condemned Bobrisky’s win.
The 30-year-old singer argued that awarding Bobrisky, a male, meant that the judges were promoting homosexuality.
He stated, “Is Bobrisky a woman? Doesn’t he wear an artificial bum and breasts? There were beautiful actresses at the event, but the judges deemed them unworthy, yet a male was awarded ‘Best Dressed Female’.”
The Ogun-born singer criticised the judges for awarding Bobrisky, believing it had set a destructive precedent.
He expressed concern that children exposed to such attitudes might emulate the path of cross-dressing.
“Our children will now imitate Bobrisky, a man who does not possess feminine features, simply because the judges honoured him with an award. Those who should be in prison or punished for disobeying religious commandments and the country’s laws are being celebrated,” Portable noted.
