Taking to social media, Jovial, celebrated for her captivating voice and catchy songs, addressed the numerous comments she has received about her nails.
She questioned the obsession some people have with artificial nails, saying, “What is the obsession with some of you that you like to see people with claws to accept you?”

Jovial elaborated on her preference for short nails, revealing that not everyone likes long or fake nails.

Sharing a painful experience, Jovial recounted, “There was a day when I hit my fingernails when I was about to go on stage while getting out of the car. I stopped security for a good 5 minutes, thinking to myself, that pain is not a game! Then the day of release is cut in half.”
The memory of the excruciating pain caused by long nails reinforced her decision to keep them short to avoid such accidents in the future.
Jovial also mentioned that she regularly takes care of her nails, often taking breaks to let them rest.
“I usually do my nails but sometimes I take a break, give me a break then. I’m a homebody,” she added, highlighting her lifestyle.
