“What Would Make Me Want to Take Picture with Ayra Starr?” – Jaywon
Nigerian singer Jaywon reveals that he’s not on good terms with his colleague, Ayra Starr.
Their fallout started from a viral photo where Ayra Starr is seen subtly holding Jaywon’s hand as though to keep him from touching her waist.
This picture have become fuel for online trolls who began mocking Jaywon, sparking an issue he believes could have been handled better.
In a recent interview with News Central, Jaywon opened up about his disappointment with how Ayra Starr and her team responded, or rather, didn’t respond, to the situation.
According to him, he didn’t expect things to spiral like this, especially as his intentions were simply to show support for Ayra, who he admires for her contributions to Nigerian music.
“People don’t understand it. What would make me, Jaywon, want to take a picture with Ayra Starr?
She’s been making us proud as an artist, and I just wanted to celebrate her,” he explained.
He pointed out that he, too, gets supported by fans and peers, so extending that goodwill to a younger artist like Ayra seemed natural to him.
But after the photo went viral, he felt abandoned as the jokes and negative comments piled on.
Jaywon expressed frustration that neither Ayra Starr nor her management tried to step in and address the situation.
He felt they could have made a statement to clarify things or at least denounced the trolling, but instead, he noticed they kept promoting the image repeatedly, keeping it in the public eye.
“They knew how it was affecting me, yet they kept quiet.
All they did was promote the picture back to back.
Nobody is dumb,” he said, emphasizing that the silence felt intentional.
He shared that Ayra’s silence on the matter showed him how things operate behind the scenes.
He concluded, “They feel like if they speak up, they’ll stop the picture from trending.
And that’s fine; everybody has their time.”
Nigerian Singer Tiwa Savage speaks on parenthood and her experience as a mother.
The singer took to social media to recall a moment that happened “Last night, I was reminded of one of the hardest things about being a mom: you still have to discipline your child and be strict, even when it breaks your heart. I’m a very, very strict mother.”
“But last night, I really went off on him. And this is why he melts my heart so much…I woke up and saw that he had quietly come to sleep next to me. I had slept on the couch, and he still came to lie beside me, my baby. I was shouting earlier… ahhh. Yet he still came close, seeking comfort. Being a mother is tough. But it’s also the best feeling in the world.”
