Speed Darlington Says Burna Boy Faked Scandal to Prove He Isn’t Gay
Speed Darlington has weighed in on the ongoing controversy involving Burna Boy and socialite Sophia Egbueje, claiming the entire saga was staged.
The drama started after an audio recording leaked, where Sophia accused Burna Boy of having an affair with her and failing to buy her a Lamborghini as promised. The situation quickly became a hot topic on Nigerian social media.
However, Speed Darlington believes there’s more to the story. In a video posted on Instagram, he alleged that Burna Boy orchestrated the scandal to convince people he isn’t gay. He even doubled down on his past claim that Burna’s Grammy win was linked to an affair with American music mogul Diddy.
“You’re stressing yourself trying to prove to everyone that you’re not gay,” Speed Darlington said. “You and that girl planned this. You knew it would damage your name, but you paid her to act like an escort so people would believe you like women. If you’re gay, just own it.”
Burna Boy celebrated his 35th birthday surrounded by his family and close friends.
A video from the celebration made its way online, showing loved ones celebrating with the Grammy-winning singer. His mother was seen warmly embracing him and sharing her birthday wishes.
As Burna Boy prepared to blow out the candles on his cake, his mother jokingly wished for him to find a wife instead of buying another car.
The lighthearted moment has since gone viral, with many fans agreeing with her wish.
Nigerian influencer Sophia Momodu has responded to a social media user who questioned how she earns a living.
The comment read “For how long would you keep selling your body to live?”
Sophia fired back with a lighthearted response, writing “Debby Adegoke, I’ve just arrived please. Let me breathe before you start with your weird projections & stalking! Ah ah, una no dey tire???”
Nigerian actress Toyin Abraham has opened up about her friendship with fellow actress Funke Akindele.
It can be recalled that the actresses were once close friends before fans noticed they were no longer seen together, sparking speculation about their relationship.
Speaking in a recent interview, Toyin explained that she prefers not to discuss the situation or be compared to anyone.
“There is nothing anyone would say that will get to me anymore. If I respond to you, it’s because I am just having fun with you. I want to play with you.”
“I don’t want to talk about my past with Funke Akindele. I don’t like it when they pitch me with anyone. I just want to be me, Toyin Abraham Ajeyemi.”
