“I Didn’t Come Into This Industry As A Fashionista” – Simi Takes On Her Style Critics
There used to be a time when Simi would strongly disagree if
you so much as say a negative word about her fashion choices but it
appears she’s having a rethink and choosing to listen more.
In a new interview with Vibe.ng, the singer addressed the criticisms she gets for her style saying, “I didn’t come into this industry as a fashionista or a fashion icon. I’m not a model, I’m not a fashion designer so if you come and attack that,.. I can learn and become better but I can’t feel bad because that’s not my talent. Do you understand? That’s not where I am selling.”
Simi, who is the magazine’s latest cover girl also gushed about being woken up to a tweet by Grammy Award winning singer, India Arie saying she loved ‘ALL’ of her(Simi’s) songs. “When you see people that are your heroes, you know, not even just like in your country, like worldwide,um…acknowledge you without you having to chase for that acknowledgement… that’s success…those are the kinds of things I regard as success.”

“When I’m in LA, I mostly stay in because it’s my time off and I like being with my boyfriend and doing art and cooking,” she explained. “We like late-night movies and we order from this amazing place that does lattes and gingerbread cookies. I need coffee to stay up. I’m always like, ‘Babe, let’s go to a movie.’ Then I fall asleep halfway through and he’s like, ‘You’ve seen the first half of every movie out there and you have no idea how any of them end.’”

Snitch Alert: Uber CEO snitches on other CEOs that supported Trump
Uber CEO, Travis Kalanick, has refused to go down alone after he
received backlash for supporting Donald Trump and he proceeded to
expose other CEOs who also support Trump.
In an email to his staff on Saturday, Kalanick said that the company opposes the executive orders by Trump and will compensate affected employees. But he did not stop there, he went on to reveal in detail the names and companies of other CEOs who support and serve as advisers to Donald Trump.
The email read in part; "This is why I agreed in early December to join President Trump’s economic advisory group along with Elon Musk (CEO of Tesla), Mary Barra (Chairwoman/CEO of General Motors), Indra Nooyi (Chairwoman/CEO of Pepsi), Ginni Rometty (Chairwoman/CEO of IBM), Bob Iger (Chairman/CEO of Disney), Jack Welch (former Chairman of GE), and a dozen other business leaders."
Kalanick is an advisor for Trump’s business group and on Saturday, while the Taxi Union agreed to hold a strike at the JKF airport in protest of the ban on Muslim foreigners, Uber broke the taxi strike and went on to announce on Twitter that surge pricing has been reduced, meaning their prices were made less expensive, thereby undermining the effect of the strike. This prompted a lot of anti-Trump protesters to delete the Uber app from their phones and the hashtag #DeleteUber started trending on Twitter.
Kalanick was not going to suffer the backlash alone so he snitched on other CEOs, but this did not go down well, because, rather than have the criticisms shift from him to the other exposed CEOs, he received an even greater backlash, with most referring to him as "the dude that caught cheating, so he snitched on all his boys.”
