“You’re looking at her looking nice, and yes, the dress is fitted and her body looks nice in it, but she’s not trying to ‘give it to you.’ The problem is God made her beautiful and it’s not her problem,” she told Rolling Out. “Most of the people with the problem are mad that they can’t put that dress on and look the same way; that is their problem!”
Erica was also publicly defended by fellow gospel singer Yolanda Adams.
The white body-conscious dress covers her from neck to calf.
Campbell responded to critics during an exclusive interview with Essence.com.
“This is about confidence and realizing that God made you and that you are beautiful just the way you are,” she said. “I think that young girls shouldn’t only get sexy images from people who are not proclaiming Jesus. But I am. And I’m cute too.”
