LAGOS: It’s only midweek, but Nigerian celebrities have already given fans plenty to talk about from shocking relationship confessions to bold career claims. Social media has been buzzing nonstop as stars shared views that sparked intense debates and laughter across the internet.
Rapper Blaqbonez caused a stir after declaring he’s comfortable with the idea of an open marriage.
Most married couples don’t keep having the same amount of sex they had at the beginning; it naturally reduces, he said. So, if someone else is satisfying her sexually while I’m out hustling or touring, that’s fine.
He went further, adding that if he ever gets married, he’d prefer separate rooms, meeting his wife only when they want intimacy.
The statement drew mixed reactions with some calling him progressive and others accusing him of promoting immorality.
Afrobeats superstar Tiwa Savage also set social media on fire after admitting she might not mind being a second wife.
I’m like a sugar mama, but I don’t want to be. If I meet someone who can really marry me, they’re either in their 50s or already married.
So, maybe I can be a second wife, she said.Fans couldn’t stop debating whether her words were meant as a joke or a real reflection of her love life.
Legendary musician Sir Shina Peters added spice to the week with a bold claim comparing his career to that of Michael Jackson.
The only thing you can show for showbiz at the end is how many evergreens you’ve produced. To my credit, I have four. Even Michael Jackson has just two We Are the World and Thriller,he said.
His comments sparked amusement and disbelief online, with fans arguing over what counts as a classic in music.
Actress Etinosa Idemudia, who holds a degree in engineering, stirred controversy after saying acting is more demanding than engineering.
I have been an engineer and an actor. No offence to my colleagues in engineering, but acting is much more tasking. It’s a crazy kind of work, a mad person’s work, she declared.
Her take reignited the debate about which career paths require more dedication technical or creative.
Media personality Lolo1 also weighed in on relationship dynamics, saying she prefers polygamy to deceit.
I would rather a man be polygamous than be married and have a side chick. That’s what I won’t tolerate,” she said.
Her perspective drew support from some fans who saw it as practical, while others disagreed, insisting monogamy remains ideal.
