Nigerian music star Ayra Starr has become the talk of social media after several viral pictures appeared to show popular celebrities covering their noses when around her.

The images, which have stirred massive reactions on X (formerly Twitter), were shared by user @spyderrmann and have gathered over 1. 5 million impressions. The pictures show Ayra Starr with big names like Rihanna, Tems, Wizkid, and others— each seemingly reacting to a strong smell.

In one picture, international superstar Rihanna is seen holding her nose while standing close to Ayra. Another photo shows singer Tems covering her nose tightly as she stands behind Ayra Starr in a video shoot. In a third image, Wizkid appears visibly uncomfortable while on set for their new music video " Gimme Dat. "

The fourth photo making waves shows a woman looking shocked as Ayra opens her mouth close to her face. These photos have led people online to ask if the singer has body or mouth odour.

The conversation heated up further when more photos showed other celebrities like Tyla and Rema also closing their noses around her. Nigerian singer Jaywon, who once complained that Ayra Starr didn' t allow him to touch her, jokingly tweeted, " Life na turn by turn. "

The topic has divided the internet. While many joked about the situation, others defended Ayra Starr. One user wrote, " You guys are really hurting that girl for no reason. " Another commented, " Halitosis (mouth odour) can be caused by health issues, not just hygiene. Let' s not judge her without knowing the facts. "
