Zicsaloma has set the record straight about his on-screen portrayals of female characters, emphasizing that his roles are strictly for entertainment and do not reflect his personal life.
Despite his frequent depiction of women in his skits, Zicsaloma asserts that he is not a crossdresser and does not promote crossdressing outside of his comedic work.
He explained that mimicking female characters is a comedic strength for him, similar to how other entertainers might adopt different personas for their content. Zicsaloma’s clarification comes amid growing public debate around male content creators dressing in feminine attire, particularly as discussions about gender identity become more prominent in Nigeria.
He stressed that his artistic expression should not be confused with his personal lifestyle or beliefs.
He said: “I am not a crossdresser; I only dress like women for content. I don’t even wear makeup—not that I can’t do comedy without it. Mimicking females is my comic strength,” Zicsaloma explained.
“There are people who are good at mimicking different characters, like a typical Hausa man. Are you saying I influenced popular crossdressers—I don’t want to mention names—who heavily dress as women to events in gowns?” he quizzed.
