Nigerian disc jockey and billionaire heiress, Florence Otedola, popularly known as DJ Cuppy, has explained why she moved away from wearing pink, a colour that had become a major part of her identity for years.\n<\/p>\n

Cuppy said she did not want to be defined or restricted by a particular colour, noting that personal growth had influenced her evolving fashion choices.\n<\/p>\n

In a video clip from her GQ Poland interview shared on X on Friday, she responded to questions about what happened to her signature pink look, explaining that the colour still represented her personality but that she could express those qualities through other colours.

\u201cI was known for the colour pink and it was my identity for so many years, and a lot of people are asking what happened to the pink.<\/p>\n

\u201cI want people to understand that actually growth is something that will always come, and I don\u2019t think I should be boxed into a colour.<\/p>\n

\u201cPink for me meant power, vibrancy, expression, unapologeticness, positionality, and that\u2019s still me, but I\u2019m able to express it through other colours as well,\u201d she said.\n<\/p>\n

The DJ also linked her changing style to her experience as a woman working in a male-dominated industry.<\/p>\n

She recalled using pink when she started out in the entertainment industry about 17 years ago, saying it helped her express her femininity while establishing herself professionally.\n<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I think about my style, I think about a woman in a male-dominated industry.\n<\/p>\n

\u201cMaybe also when I first started 17 years ago, a young girl that was using pink to represent her femininity and stay in the room,\u201d she said.\n<\/p>\n

Cuppy added that after years of navigating the industry, she no longer felt the need to rely on one colour to express her femininity.\n<\/p>\n

\u201cNow that I\u2019ve been through a lot of doors and kicked down some windows, I feel like I can represent my femininity through any colour.\n<\/p>\n

\u201cSo my style I would say is vibrant, grounded and ethnical,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n
