Pakistani superstar Aima Baig, known for her soulful voice and chart-topping hits, recently performed at a concert in Canada, thrilling fans with her electrifying stage presence. The singer, who rose to fame with Mazaq Raat and became a playback sensation, delivered a memorable show, singing some of her biggest tracks to an enthusiastic audience.
However, the performance took an unexpected turn when Aima covered Jennie, a popular song by South Korean artist Jennie of BLACKPINK. While she attempted the choreography and styling reminiscent of K-pop, the rendition received heavy backlash online. Critics slammed her take, with social media flooded with memes and negative remarks comparing her to a “Daraz version of Jennie” and mocking her dance moves.
Despite the harsh comments, Aima has yet to respond publicly. Known for her confidence and bold artistic choices, she has never shied away from experimenting with different genres. This isn’t the first time she’s faced trolling, but her loyal fanbase continues to support her, praising her for taking creative risks.
The incident highlights the double standards female artists often face when exploring different styles. While male performers are frequently applauded for versatility, women like Aima are scrutinized for stepping outside traditional expectations. Whether loved or criticized, Aima Baig remains a dominant force in Pakistan’s music industry, proving that talent and resilience always shine through.
