Nigerian music superstar, Burna Boy, has once again stirred up social media—this time not for a new single or fiery performance, but for finally shaving his armpit hair.

A viral video circulating online shows the Grammy-winning singer with noticeably smooth underarms, sparking reactions from fans who recall him boldly saying he never shaves there.

Weeks ago, Burna Boy made headlines when he claimed he doesn't see the need to shave his armpit hair.

He explained that he prioritises comfort, his natural scent, and allure, joking that ladies find it "s3xy."

But the latest clip tells a different story. In the trending footage, fans were quick to notice the unexpected grooming change.

Burna Boy lashes out at critics

Legit.ng earlier reported that Burna Boy has responded fiercely to the heavy criticism he faced after expressing his intention to hold a free concert in Burkina Faso. In a fiery statement shared via the Instagram story of NSOW TV, Burna Boy didn’t mince words as he slammed those questioning his motive and relevance in the West African country, currently facing a sensitive political climate.

The “City Boys” crooner noted that while many welcomed his idea, the level of negativity from a section of online critics left him shocked and irritated.

The singer, who recently headlined global stages, reaffirmed his belief in using his platform to do good, insisting that he has nothing to gain and owes no one anything, but still continues to carry out meaningful actions. The outburst came days after some online users criticised Burna Boy’s plan to perform in Burkina Faso, calling it a “misplaced priority” due to the country’s current political instability.
