Ghanaian musician MzVee has asked people to stop putting pressure on women, particularly mature female celebrities to get married since, in her view, marriage is not shopped for.
“It’s not a nice feeling to be pressured in that sense because it’s not something you can go and shop for: you can’t shop for a man; you can’t shop for a woman; it’s something that comes with time and everybody’s timing is different, so, please take it easy on some of us”, she told Nana Romeo on Accra100.5FM’s mid-morning show Ayekoo Ayekoo on Thursday, 14 October 2021.
“On social media, some people say that: ‘You’re growing old, get married’, ‘When will you get married?’, ‘Be here and be boasting [about] this and not get married’ but I don’t pay attention to those people”, she noted.
At the end of the day, she pointed out, “it’s my life, it’s her life – whoever it is – and they decide whatever they want to do with it and marriage is not the end of the world, so, yes, everyone’s timing is different”.
