Genevieve Romances D’Banj, Features In ‘Fall In Love’ Video
If the recent story making rounds in the Nigerian entertainment clan, is any thing to go by, Dapo Oyebanji a.k.a D’Banj and A List Nollywood actress Genevieve Nnaji have been in secret romance for quite some time now and have not hidden their affection for one another.
According to our source, the self acclaimed Koko Master was smitten with the sexy actress beauty crooner and even featured her in the video of one of his songs, “Fall In Love” where at the shoot he expressed his love for her both in the video and real life. It was also gathered that since then the duo have been seen together in several events.
Prior to this time, the hip hop Gooner had been allegedly linked with the likes of Mercy Johnson, Munachi Abii, Funke Akindele and a host of others which he debunked, but with Genevieve he is letting the whole world know that he has finally found real love and like a man in love, he is not shying away from singing it on the mountain tops that he is in love with the former face of Lux.
Genevieve on her part is said to be also in love with D’Banj, but is not too expressive of it the way D’Banj is going. Our source stressed that this may probably be as a result of the bad publicity her past affairs had generated.
It was also revealed that the screen diva and mother of one is taking things easy though she sees D’Banj quite often whenever her schedule permits. They have been attending events together and have been seen in high profile functions recently and they have left no one in doubt of their affection for one another.
R&B star, Temilade Openiyi, popularly known as Tems, has recounted the early-career challenges she faced, revealing that she was once booed out of the stage while performing at a school event.
Speaking in an interview with Newsmen, the Crazy Tings crooner shared that she wasn’t only booed but was also harassed with plastic bottles.
“I remember one time I was going to perform at my school as an up-and-coming singer and I thought I was going to receiving a standing ovation.
“But I got booed. They even threw plastic bottles at me,” she recalled.
Tems explained that despite the embarrassing incident and other such rejections, she remained determined to pursue a career in music.
The Tide Entertainment reports that Tems admitted that some of the initial rejections she faced could be due to her conviction to stick to her originality instead of doing covers or familiar sounds like most of her peers.
The Grammy-winning singer said looking back now, she is glad that she didn’t compromise her style despite the initial pressures.
A close associate of late singer Mohbad, Primeboy, has appealed for the artiste’s burial nearly three years after his death.
According to him, Mohbad’s body remains in the mortuary since September 12, 2023, pending burial arrangements.
The Tide Entertainment reports that in a statement Primeboy urged the family, public, and government to permit the burial, stating, “It’s been almost three years since Mohbad left us. His body is still in the mortuary. I’m begging the family, I’m begging the public, I’m begging the government, please let’s bury our brother. He deserves a befitting burial.”
It would be recalled that Mohbad’s death sparked public outrage, protests, and investigations. Ongoing autopsy examinations, police inquiries, and legal proceedings have delayed burial arrangements amid family disagreements and public scrutiny.
