“I Chose To Fly In Femininity” — Denrele Edun Claps Back At Trolls

I Chose To Fly In Femininity” — Denrele Edun Claps Back At Trolls

Nigerian media personality Denrele Edun is reminding the world why he’s unapologetically himself. Over the weekend, an X user labeled him an “old faker,” seemingly implying that his bold persona only shined while popular crossdresser Bobrisky was in Nigeria.

Instead of letting the comment bring him down, Denrele turned the moment into a celebration of identity, family, and women everywhere. Reflecting on his own duality, he wrote:

“Masculinity told me to shrink.
Femininity told me to fly.

Guess which one I listened to?”
The post also had a heartfelt nod to his mother, calling her “The Queen who raised this flamboyant hurricane,” just a day after her birthday. Denrele’s message blends personal history with empowerment, showing how strong women shaped the man he is today.

Draped in dramatic red for a photoshoot, Denrele framed himself as a living tribute to women:

“Today, the world celebrates INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY.
So I show up draped in RED like the dramatic Love Letter I am:
To the WOMEN who create magic….

…and raise beautifully chaotic Sons like me!”
Ever the showman, he ended with his signature humor and confidence:

“P.S: I was a HOT MESS during this Shoot, but then remembered:
I’m Masculinity and Femininity having a fabulous argument in one body… and I just MADE IT WERK!
HAPPY INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY.”

Fans have rallied behind the post, praising Denrele Edun for embracing both flamboyance and authenticity, proving that trolls can’t dim a personality this bold.
