A shocking moment from the Afro Punk Festival in Brazil has gone viral after a male fan reportedly denied his wife on stage during Tems’ performance. The video, which has flooded social media, shows the man denying he was married just to interact with the Grammy-winning singer — a move that left fans stunned.

Tems was performing when she approached the man standing near the front row. Before engaging with him, she paused and said she didn’t want to disrespect his wife, who was reportedly standing right behind him. “I know your wife is here, and I need to respect her,” she said warmly, drawing cheers from the crowd.

But instead of confirming it, the man quickly denied being married, insisting he was single. His response sparked laughter, gasps, and confusion among fans, especially as the alleged wife stood a few steps behind him. Moments later, the man reached out and kissed Tems’ hand, sending the audience into a frenzy of screams and applause.

After the video spread rapidly on X (formerly Twitter), Instagram, and TikTok, many users couldn’t stop talking about the moment. criticizing the man’s behavior as embarrassing and disrespectful to his partner. The incident has also reignited a broader conversation about how far Afrobeats artists should go when engaging with fans on stage, especially when those fans are attending with their partners.

This is not the first time an Afrobeats act has faced such backlash. In early 2024, Omah Lay drew criticism after inviting a female fan—reportedly attending with her boyfriend—on stage during his London concert while performing “Bend You.” The video of their silhouettes went viral, sparking outrage online, and reports later claimed the couple broke up after the show.
