Asantewaa defends Gisela over the curtains saga
In a video posted by Gist For Life on her TikTok page, the controversial blogger criticised Gisela for spending so much on curtains to decorate her new apartment.
In the video, she was awed that the social media influencer spent that much money on curtains. However, she noted that it was okay for the working class to afford such exorbitant costs.
Gist For Life also asked her fans whether Gisela's apartment was rented or bought, and if it was rented, whether the company she worked for purchased it for her or it was from her own pocket.
"For this apartment, before anyone would buy curtains worth GH₵10,500, that means the cost of the apartment is about GH₵80,000 or even GH₵100,000 for maybe two years. Wow, only curtains?" Gist For Life said in her video.
The video attracted various opinions from social media users including TikTok star Asantewaa, who thronged to the comments section to defend Gisela.
With her verified TikTok account, @Asantewaaaaa, she wrote that curtains cost about GH₵20,000 or more and asked why people were making a fuss about the cost of Gisela's curtains.
She noted that content creators were going through a lot and that Gist For Life's video was not necessary.
"Even if the curtains was 20,000 or more which one is ppl’s issue? Content creators are going through a lot oo wei nyinaa 3kas3n??????" Asantewaa wrote in the comments.

In the video's intro, she asked her followers and other critics why they were bashing the famous influencer and said she did not understand why.
"Some of you people your unwanted opinions are unneeded. I have warned you already. I have told you guys. Warn yourselves because this 2025 is going to be boot for boot. Gisela has done what? Content Creators have done what?"
Asantewaa pleaded with critics to be themselves. She stressed that she did not know Gisela from anywhere and that they were not friends.
