Annie Idibia shuts down age critics, declares self sexiest 40-year-old actress alive

Annie Idibia, Nollywood actress and wife of musician 2Baba, has addressed critics questioning her age following her 40th birthday celebration.

Responding to online chatter, Annie confidently declared herself “the sexiest 40-year-old actress alive,” embracing her milestone with pride and self-assurance.

The actress, who had been eagerly counting down to this landmark, marked the occasion with gratitude and joy.

Annie shared a playful video from Dubai, showcasing her excitement about entering a new decade of her life.

The post radiated positivity, though it sparked mixed reactions online.

Days earlier, a video of Annie scratching her arms while excitedly talking about her big day raised speculation among fans.

While some questioned her behaviour, others interpreted the clip as an expression of unfiltered excitement and happiness.

However, Annie reflected on her journey, sharing throwback photos and expressing profound gratitude.

She described her life as a story of resilience and transformation, stating, “From beneath the grass to Grace Unlimited.”

The actress also revealed her focus for the new chapter: self-love, personal growth, and prioritizing her well-being.

She disclosed how she draws inspiration from a story by American singer Kelly Rowland about her late mother.

Reflecting on her own mother’s struggles, Annie shared how her mom faced even more daunting challenges but overcame them through divine grace.

She vowed to continue showering her mother with love and to give her the life of ease she deserves.

Annie’s recognition in August as one of the 100 Most Influential Women in Africa has made this milestone year particularly significant for her.

She expressed her gratitude for the honour, describing it as a testament to her hard work, talent, and divine favour.

As an actress, entrepreneur, and philanthropist, Annie remains dedicated to empowering women and contributing to the entertainment and fashion industries.

Proudly referring to herself as “a child of Grace,” Annie acknowledged the strides she has made throughout her journey.
