POPULAR Ghanaian funeral mourner Maame Ode, known in real life as Mary Ode Bonsu, has stated that her buttocks is natural, reasons why she’s able to shake them off during occasions.
The Kumasi-based funeral mourner and traditional dancer, in an interview, stated that many people believes that she use hip pad to create a more defined and curvy silhouette for confidence-boosting, making her body appear more shapely and feminine.
“I don’t use hip pad when dancing, that’s why my buttocks moves rhythmically to the tune of the song,” she disclosed.
Known for her popular hit song ‘Apuutor’, Maame Ode gained prominence not only for her innuendo-inspired songs but for being a professional mourner, one paid to cry at funeral grounds.
