Nigerian music star Tiwa Savage has opened up about the emotional toll and public backlash she faced following the leak of her controversial video in 2021.
In a recent interview with American radio station Hot 97, the award-winning singer addressed the criticism that followed the incident.
The mum of one highlighted the accusations that she orchestrated the incident for promotional purposes.
“I was bashed for my sex video,” she said during the interview. “A lot of people think I was just trying to get sympathy. Even people with platforms were quite horrible and blamed me.”
Savage expressed disbelief over the public’s reaction, particularly the lack of empathy. “I don’t know how they couldn’t see me as the victim in this,” she added.
“They said I did it to be relevant. If I were doing that, I would’ve been intentional about it. I would have used better lighting, lingerie, and my facial expressions would have been on point.”
