Popular Nigerian female singer, Omawumi, lost her cool recently when she stormed out of an interview.
The Glo brand ambassador was asked to clear a rumour that she smokes, but the Delta State-born star found offence in the question, pounced on the presenter, Zinnia, before leaving the set angrily, bringing the interview to an abrupt end.
Her words, “I will not honour you with a response. I feel like that is a taint to my character. Have you seen me smoking before?”
When the presenter answered no, Omawumi queried, “So why would you say that?”
She further said angrily that, “You see me as an artiste, I am contributing what I can. I make music the way that I should and I come here and honour your invitation and then you sit down and talk about my smoking and drinking to people that are listening. And you’re supposed to mean me well when these people are supposed to be the ones that are buying my music.
“Now, when you say that sort of thing, do you mean me well? You can’t ask me to kill a rumour that you are not sure about, as a rumour, you need to go and dig and get your facts right before you ask somebody something and that is the end of this interview.”
