SDA gospel singer Kelsy Kerubo has set tongues wagging after a swimsuit photo surfaced on her Facebook page, with followers divided over whether the image is real and whether it fits her profile as a church musician.
The photo, posted on Tuesday, September 15, shows Kerubo smiling confidently at the camera while dressed in a crochet swimsuit set near a rocky waterway.
Did Kelsy Kerubo wear swimsuit?
A woman can be seen in the background in the water. Kerubo also appeared to have a tattoo on her hand.
She captioned the image:
“Msinipeleke church board jameni niko vacation.”
Kerubo is associated with the Seventh-day Adventist Church, a denomination known for promoting modesty, simplicity, and neatness in dressing among its members.
The SDA Church does not enforce a single rigid global dress code, but its guiding principles strongly discourage clothing that draws excessive attention to the body or strays from simplicity.
Against that backdrop, the swimsuit photo landed with a thud among her followers, many of whom were quick to weigh in.
A number of commenters also cast doubt on whether the image was genuinely photographed or generated using artificial intelligence, pointing to the tattoo as a giveaway.
The post drew a flurry of responses ranging from disbelief to outright disappointment. Here is what some followers had to say:
Jill Odhiambo:
“AI is doing it again.”
Edwin Eduu:
“This is how it starts before they vanish from the synagogue.”
Eric Akama:
“Is this the lady I used to advise daughters to be like? Please, I’m sorry, my children.”
Rodgers Nyabuto:
“The problem is not the photo; the problem is showing us what you do behind the curtains.”
Philozy Awuor:
“The tattoo should tell everyone that it’s AI.”
