Wizkid and Tems
Fans have continued to react to the moment fast-rising Nigerian alternate R&B singer, Temilade Openiyi, known simply as Tems, stopped Ayodeji Ibrahim Balogun, professionally known as Wizkid, from carrying her during their joint performance.
It happened on Wednesday, Day 3 of Wizkid’s show held at The 02 Arena in London.
Tems was billed to perform alongside Wizkid.
While performing on stage, the 31 years old Lagos-born singer and songwriter also known as Starboy wanted to lift up the Economic graduate born 26 years ago to a British father and a Nigerian mother.
But the “Mr. Rebel” crooner and president of the ‘Rebel Gang’ (her fan base) refused to be carried like a baby. Tems stopped Wizkid abruptly.
Check out some of the numerous reactions by fans on the social media:
