Tommy Genesis facing backlash for dressing as Goddess Kali
Tommy Genesis recently caused major outrage with her new music video titled ‘True Blue,’ where she portrayed herself as Goddess Kali. She featured in the video all dressed in a gold bikini and stilettos and adorned in traditional jewelry. Tommy also struck religious poses and even licked a crucifix in the video, which caused even more backlash.
All of this imagery unsurprisingly offended both Hindus and Christians alike, sparking heavy criticism online. Notable Indian rapper Raftaar also slammed her on Instagram, calling the visuals in her video a mockery of religion. However, Genesis has simply shrugged off the backlash, confidently stating the video wasn’t meant for people who feel personally attacked by it.
