Nigerian music superstar Tiwa Savage is getting real. In a powerful new interview, she spoke with British media personality Zeze Millz. Savage opened up about a period she calls the “darkest moment” of her career. That time was 2021, when two huge life events collided.
In October 2021, Tiwa Savage made headlines after a private video was leaked online. It was a malicious act of blackmail that thrust her into a global spotlight she never wanted. At the very same time, she was dealing with the heartbreaking loss of her father. What many didn’t know was that these two devastating events happened at once.
In the interview, Tiwa was incredibly candid about the pain of that period. When asked how she was able to get through such a difficult time, the “All Over” singer revealed her surprising coping mechanism. “My dad died and my sex tape was released. The only way I could have survived was not to think about it,” she explained.
Tiwa expressed gratitude for the platform to finally share her story. She called her appearance on the show “a blessing.” After years of silence, she reflected on her personal journey. The interview offers a rare glimpse into the vulnerability of one of Africa’s biggest stars. Ultimately, it highlights her incredible resilience in the face of unimaginable public and private pain.
