Veteran Nigerian singer Sunny Neji has claimed that musicians who sing love and relationship-themed songs often face temptations from female fans, including married women.
Speaking during an interview with Yanga FM Lagos, the singer said married women are naturally attracted to artists who create romantic music.
Sunny Neji made the statement while reacting to the recent controversy involving a Nigerian artist who was allegedly linked to an affair with the wife of a popular media personality, a situation said to have contributed to the couple’s divorce.
According to him, admiration from female fans is common in the entertainment industry, especially for singers known for emotional and romantic songs.
“If you are an artist who sings love and relationship-based songs, married women will naturally be drawn to you. That is normal, but what happens next depends on the choices you make,” he said.
The veteran singer, however, stressed that artists must remain disciplined and avoid getting involved in inappropriate relationships despite the attention they receive from fans.
“It is left for you to be disciplined and avoid temptations,” he added.
