If I ever get married, it will be to a tall guy
Nigerian-French female singer and vocalist, Asa in an interview revealed that if she’s going to get married, she will definitely marry a tall guy because her parents are short.
She also took the time to talk about her career. She said she wasn’t expecting her first album to go viral but it was successful and she also commended other female artists who’s currently winning in the music industry
She said “I am crazy for tall guys. They could be dark. If you are dark, be very dark. Then, it takes me time to think, ‘Does he have a brain?’ If my future man is short, if I ever get married, I won’t complain. I do hope he is not short, because my parents were short and I wasn’t happy about that.”
She also said she was wary of her voice when she started her music career, adding that when she dropped her first album, she didn’t know it would be that big.
She said, “I just never trusted people; maybe it was (because) my father told me all the time that ‘you can’t trust people’. I think people just didn’t get me. When I started performing publicly, I didn’t come out as a singer. I came out as a dancer. That thing was inside me saying, ‘Why is your voice like this? Why do you sound like this? Why do you walk like this? Who do you think you are’?
“So, I just went into my world and performed to an imaginary audience. When my first album came out, I did not expect it was going to be that big. I was shy and slightly embarrassed. I thought I was not ready and still needed to do more work.”
