In June, Temi Otedola revealed her appointment as L’Oreal’s global influencer and face, proudly becoming the first African Digital Ambassador for the renowned cosmetics brand, and expressed her immense honor in representing Nigeria and African beauty on the world stage.
Nigerian supermodel Oluchi Onweagba subtly shaded Temi Otedola, clarifying that she was the original pioneer for L’Oreal in Nigeria, and implying that Temi’s claims of being the first African Digital Ambassador were misguided, stating she has evidence to back her own achievements and can’t let history be rewritten by Temi’s “prepaid magical media outlets”.
Temi Otedola’s 2024 success seems to be a fulfillment of her New Year’s vow. Previously, in an interview with Korty, she opened up about defying privilege, revealing financial challenges and a summer job at 15 that earned her $1,200, teaching her the value of hard-earned money and self-sufficiency, a testament to her driven personality.
