It’s the 4th day of February and it seems we haven’t heard the last of Celebrity beefs.
Yesterday, TVHost, Krystn Enem of Africa Magic Urban called out reggae-dancehall singer – Burna Boy on Twitter for standing her up thrice and making her look like a fool after he previously agreed to do an interview for her show, but he later failed to show up.
According to the TV Host, her team reached out to Burna Boy’s manager who happens to be his mother and after days of deliberation and even cancellation, they agreed to hold an interview yesterday, but then again the singer stood her up three times, ruined her other plans for the day and when asked why he failed to show up, Burna Boy’s mother said he was not ready (at 6:30pm) and hadn’t taken his day’s bath.
Upset by the fact that she had waited from noon until evening for him, the angry TV host took to Twitter to explain all that happened and cursed out at him.
So many reasons why many Nigerian artists don't last more that 2 years or a few hits? Their poor personalities and horrible attitude.

My manager contacted this artist 10 days ago. We spoke to his manager who happens to be his mum, asked for an interview

She referred us to some other person supposedly in charge of PR. We booked the appointment for the interview

This was 10 days ago or thereabout. The lady asked us to send an official email which we did right away with all details.

They said they will get back to us and it took another few days and we got email back of 'we'll confirm with so and so person. We waited

In a tweet he quickly deleted, Burna Boy said, “Itchy fingers, twitter fingers?” without mentioning names. His management is yet to officially react to the allegations.
