Ugandan singer Lydia Jazmine has spoken out strongly against body-shaming after edited images of her appeared online, sparking a wave of public commentary.

The 33-year-old, whose real name is Lydia Nabawanuka, was targeted after appearing at Alex Muhangi’s Comedy Store Uganda show on Wednesday evening. A post shared by blogger BigEye on social media platform X (formerly Twitter) tagged her in a set of photos labelled “Style and Fashion” — photos Jazmine claims had been deliberately altered to distort her appearance.

Outcry after blogger targets Lydia Jazmine with edited photos.
This is what they posted.

The Kindekere singer responded swiftly and publicly, issuing a statement across her social media platforms condemning the post and accusing the blogger of repeated attacks on her image.

“Dear @BigEyeUG, you have worked so hard over the years to tarnish my image and I have never come out to respond to you. Now this is beyond even disrespect and body shaming,” she wrote. “I’m going to take action now.”

Jazmine went on to allege that the blogger had long collaborated with individuals intent on damaging her reputation, claiming her photos are frequently edited before being circulated online.

“I’m kindly asking you not to post my content again on your page,” she added. “You have disrespected me enough.”

She also urged her followers, known as the LJ Addicts, to verify her appearances directly from her official pages. To reinforce her point, she later shared unedited images from the same event — which appeared markedly different from the photos posted by the blogger.

Fans quickly rallied behind her. One supporter, Magambo Abdallah, responded:

“Those editing and sharing your photos reveal their own insecurities, not your talent. Stay authentic and continue to shine.”

Another, @RonnieLJ, wrote:

“May God protect you from the evil eyes… the world is proud of you. Never give up.”

The episode has drawn renewed attention to the wider issue of body shaming, particularly of public figures on social media. International artists such as Ariana Grande, Camila Cabello, and Bebe Rexha have all spoken publicly about facing similar treatment. Many, including model Ashley Graham and activist Jameela Jamil, have called for a shift toward body positivity and healthier online discourse.

In a widely shared video last year, Grande urged her fans to think more carefully about commenting on other people’s bodies. “There are many ways to look healthy and beautiful,” she said at the time.

With her latest statement, Jazmine joins those artists in calling for greater respect and sensitivity in the digital age — and sends a clear message: no one should feel compelled to apologise for how they look.
