Joanne Ball-Burgess popularly known as Jo 1 is one of the most active and fit ladies in this country. This lady was born with the gift of dancing and her skills are out of this world.
Many people remember her as one of the judges of the dance show Sakata. She has given advice countless times on how to be a good dancer and how fun it can be.
But something we can't ignore is her fashion sense. Jo 1 has her own fashion style that is quite unique. She has even received criticism a number of times because of how she dresses.
Well, she has come out to talk about how a popular fashion segment on Citizen TV dubbed Fashion Watch once trashed her dressing, which really got to her.
Speaking to Nairobi Wire, she revealed that their criticism was uncalled for considering she had given birth not long after.
"Back when I had had the baby and was 6 weeks postpartum Fashion Watch basically trashed my outfit which is strange since I was finished wearing maternity wear and had just about recovered from the C-section stitches. I was at the safaricom jazz fest with my 3 kids. I’d like to see the judges on fashion watch attempt that without some serious tailoring done to their clothes and professional makeup. At that time I didn’t respond but it was sad especially for two women to respond to my style choice like that. Especially since Nairobi isn’t considered to be the fashion hub of anywhere in the world," she told Nairobi Wire.
She continued, "I never did dress according to anyone’s standards or so- called trends. I love colours and bold statements. I’ve been through too much in my life and I will not apologize for my choice of clothing-which is something so futile and passing anyway."
