The trouble with being a celebrity is that you almost effectively lose your privacy, and almost everyone out there will have an opinion about you, good or bad.
South African singer Elaine is currently experiencing this reality – not that she had not experienced it before, though. She is od critical focus right now because of what she decided to adopt as a side hustle – selling flowers.
Of course, it is within anyone’s rights to decide what side hustle to have. But Elaine deciding to settle for flowers had some people stating that she must be in dire financial straits to have settled for such. In their views, flowers as a side hustle showed a big decline in her financial standing.
But is that actually the reality? We cannot independently verify that besides stating that people are entitled to pick whatever side hustle suits them, so long as they are not against the law. In reality, flowers can also be an expensive side hustle depending on your clientele and target audience.
Anyway, you can check out the controversial Instagram story, which was shared on X later.
