Peller Clears the Air on Viral Pool Video with Jarvis

Nigerian skit maker and content creator, Peller, has addressed speculations surrounding a viral video of him and fellow influencer Jarvis, which shows the duo in a rather cozy moment at a swimming pool. The video, which has stirred buzz on social media and drawn reactions from fans and critics alike, shows Jarvis playfully touching Peller in the water. Many viewers quickly jumped to conclusions, insinuating that there might be more than just friendship between the two. However, in a candid conversation with comedians Nasty Blaq and Falz the Bahd Guy, Peller set the record straight. “The video of Jarvis touching me in the swimming pool is just for content, nothing is happening between us. I’m still a virgin, and I’m keeping my virginity for the girl I’m sure I will marry,”* he declared with a mix of honesty and humor. His revelation sparked laughter from Falz and Nasty Blaq, but also opened up a deeper conversation about personal values, boundaries in content creation, and the increasing pressure on young influencers in the entertainment space. Peller’s bold statement has drawn mixed reactions online, with many applauding his transparency and commitment to personal beliefs, while others debate the fine line between skit content and real-life implications. As content creators continue to blur the lines between performance and reality, moments like these serve as a reminder that not everything seen online should be taken at face value.

Actress Biola Bayo Explains Why She Announced Her Separation Publicly

Popular Nollywood actress Biola Bayo has opened up about her reasons for publicly announcing her separation from her husband, Oluseyi. The actress made headlines last week after sharing the news of their split in an emotional post released on Oluseyi’s birthday marking the end of their four-year marriage. The announcement took many by surprise and sparked mixed reactions across social media. While some sympathized with her, others criticized the timing of the post, accusing her of intentionally choosing her estranged husband’s birthday to attract public attention or incite backlash against him. In response to the criticism, Biola Bayo addressed the matter in a now-viral video, clarifying the intention behind her decision. She emphasized that the announcement was a way for her to take control of her own narrative. "Please, I’m human too," she said. "I shared the news about my marriage because I didn’t want people telling my story for me. That’s my style speaking for myself so that false narratives don’t hurt me even more. But I didn’t expect that people would still turn it against me." She also revealed that her husband was aware of the post before it was made public. "People had already started asking why I wasn’t posting my husband, and I knew the rumors would spread online that very day. That’s why I decided to speak up about our separation myself. Still, it was misunderstood," she explained. "I had already informed my husband before I made the post. He knew I would publish it, so others wouldn’t twist the story. In the end, I believe God will judge everyone fairly." Biola Bayo’s candidness has sparked renewed conversations about public figures sharing personal matters online and the double standards often faced by women in the public eye.

Falz Opens Up about How He Never Planned to Date Simi

In a surprising yet deeply personal revelation, Nigerian rapper and actor Falz has opened up about his past feelings or lack thereof toward fellow artist Simi, shedding light on a decision rooted in loyalty, respect, and what he calls "bro code." During a candid conversation with Simi, Falz stated plainly: “I never planned to date you. I was taught never to eat from another man's plate.” While fans have long speculated about the chemistry between the two, especially during the peak of their musical collaborations, Falz put lingering rumors to rest by revealing that there was much more happening behind the scenes than the public ever knew. He went on to recount a time when Adekunle Gold, now Simi's husband, had expressed clear interest in her even before the fame and fortune that later followed. “Look, Ade has always been like a brother to me. Back in the day before all the fame, during his YBNL hustle he’d casually say, ‘Senior bro, I dey eye that babe o.’ I knew he was talking about Simi. The way he said it, I could tell the feelings were real. So I respected that.” For Falz, the decision was simple not out of a lack of admiration for Simi, but out of a deeply rooted principle: loyalty to a friend. “It’s just bro code. You don’t go after a woman your guy already made his intentions clear about.” This admission from Falz adds a new layer to the decades-old friendship between the three artists. Fans have often praised the synergy between Simi and Falz in songs like "Soldier" and "Chemistry", fueling years of romantic speculation. But this revelation reframes that narrative, revealing a man who chose brotherhood and respect over personal desire. In an industry often driven by rivalry and personal ambition, Falz’s words stand out as a rare and refreshing moment of integrity. For many, it reinforces why he remains one of Nigeria’s most respected and thoughtful entertainers. As for Simi and Adekunle Gold, who have since built a beautiful life and family together, Falz’s disclosure only adds a sense of history and respect to their journey proof that sometimes, the right people end up together, not just by fate, but also by the quiet sacrifices of those who stepped aside with honor.

Liz Benson Powerful Message to Young Women

Veteran Nollywood actress Liz Benson has always been known for her grace, wisdom, and moral convictions. In a recent heartfelt message directed at young women, the screen legend offers a sobering perspective on love, relationships, and self worth in a world where casual dating has become the norm. Liz Benson begins by addressing a common sentiment among some women: *“I’ve only been with one boyfriend, so I’m not promiscuous.” While this may seem like a badge of honor in today’s culture, the actress argues that even one partner can leave a lasting imprint emotionally, physically, and spiritually. “Men are built differently, and your body can adapt to one in a way that might not suit another, and you begin to run into problems at that point,” she explains, emphasizing that the female body isn’t just wired for experimentation but for deep, lasting connection. Her message isn’t about shame, but rather about self-respect and long-term wisdom. According to Benson, the female body and soul were designed for a lifelong partnera husband not for “trial relationships” that often lack accountability. She draws a clear distinction between boyfriends and husbands, stating that while a boyfriend can walk away without consequence, a husband carries legal and moral obligations that protect both parties. “There’s no reward in loyalty to a boyfriend who has no legal or lasting commitment to you,” she notes. “Even in so-called 'committed relationships,' the woman often ends up losing more.” Benson highlights the biological differences between men and women not as an excuse for male behavior, but to underline the unique toll emotional and physical intimacy can take on women when handled casually. Her counsel is clear: wait for the man who is willing to make a true commitment. Marriage, though not a perfect guarantee, is likened to a legal contract. Just as one would not invest in land or a car without documentation, entering into a relationship without formal commitment puts one at significant risk. “Honor yourself by saving loyalty and intimacy for your husband,” Benson concludes. “It’s wiser, more self-protective, and far more dignified.” At a time when traditional values often collide with modern ideals, Liz Benson’s message is a reminder to many young women to reclaim their worth, set firm standards, and make decisions that protect their future.4 “I NEVER PLANNED TO DATE YOU. I WAS TAUGHT NEVER TO EAT FROM ANOTHER MAN'S PLATE. Look, Ade has always been like a brother to me. Back in the day before all the fame, during his YBNL hustle he’d casually say, ‘Senior bro, I dey eye that babe o.’ I knew he was talking about Simi. The way he said it, I could tell the feelings were real. So I respected that. It's just bro code. You don’t go after a woman your guy already made his intentions clear about." Falz opens up to Simi about their past.

Angela Okorie Blasts Destiny Etiko in Explosive Rant

Nollywood has always had its fair share of drama, but Angela Okorie just turned up the heat and it’s scorching. In a no-holds-barred tirade that’s shaking up the entertainment space, Angela Okorie took to social media to call out fellow actress Destiny Etiko, accusing her of fake admiration, petty competition, and clout-chasing. “Destiny, stop hiding behind cameras. If you admire me, come clean! Stop waiting till the last minute to enter business class and pretend you're on calls!” Angela didn’t mince words. Her frustration was palpable as she accused Destiny of being a “confused admirer,” someone who projects admiration in private but competes in public. According to Angela, the so-called camaraderie is a front and she’s tired of playing along. “She’s not real,” Angela said bluntly, suggesting that Destiny’s energy is driven by envy rather than authenticity. “It’s always competition, never connection,” she added. But the real bombshell came when Angela shifted from emotional grievances to financial flexing: “The money I spent on my skin routine alone is more than her entire career!” Mic. Dropped. 🎤 Angela further revealed that she invested a staggering ₦300 million into a single music project a song titled Legit. The statement wasn't just shade it was a torch aimed directly at Destiny’s professional portfolio. This isn’t just celebrity beef. This is prime-time Nollywood drama, unfiltered and delivered with receipts, egos, and all the luxury aesthetics you can imagine. Whether it’s an honest outcry or a publicity power play, one thing’s for sure: Angela Okorie has made it clear she’s not here to play nice, and she certainly isn’t backing down.

Destiny Etiko Opens Up About Love, Standards, and Self Worth

Popular Nollywood actress Destiny Etiko is speaking her truth and she’s not sugarcoating it. In a candid message that has sparked discussion across social media, Destiny made it clear that when it comes to relationships and marriage, she knows her worth and refuses to settle. “Men are chatting me, some even want to marry me, but I can't accept to be with someone below my standards,” the actress declared. “I can't be with someone who can't take care of me just because I'm desperate to be in marriage.” Known for her unapologetic attitude and strong personality, Destiny’s statement reflects a growing mindset among women who are choosing intentionality over societal pressure. Her words challenge the outdated narrative that women must marry at all costs, regardless of compatibility, stability, or peace of mind. “I can't accept to be with someone I will suffer with tomorrow or my kids will suffer because of no money,”** she continued. “I will wait. If I don't see anyone of my standards, I will remain single.” Destiny’s message also highlighted her personal fulfillment beyond marriage. She revealed that she already has an adopted child, a choice that shows her deep sense of love, purpose, and responsibility. “I already have an adopted child; I don't need to worry.” For Destiny, motherhood and womanhood are not defined by a marital status or a partner’s presence. Her focus is on emotional stability, financial security, and raising a child in a safe, happy environment. And that’s a message many women across Africa and beyond are resonating with. In a world where many feel pressured to settle out of fear, Destiny Etiko is choosing peace over pressure, quality over quantity, and standards over desperation. And for that, she continues to earn respect both on and off the screen.
