Tiwa Savage says she’s being blackmailed over sex tape

Afrobeats first lady, and super star, Tiwa Savage, has said she is being blackmailed over a sex tape that her boyfriend ‘accidentally shared on social media’. 

According to Tiwa, the footage was accidentally uploaded to Snapchat by her boyfriend last month. It was quickly removed, but unfortunately, it had already been downloaded by an unnamed stalker who is now blackmailing her.

Tiwa revealed this on in the US while appearing on the radio station Power 105.1 in New York on Friday.

The Afrobeats star said she is refusing to pay a blackmailer who is threatening to release the video.

“I am not going to call it a sex tape. But it’s a tape between me and the person I am dating right now,” she told host Angie Martinez.

Tiwa also confirmed that she cried when she was informed of the leak by her road manager on Thursday. She told Martinez that she would not give in to the blackmailer’s demands. Adding that even if she paid up, there was no guarantee they wouldn’t release the footage anyway.

“I’m not gonna have somebody blackmail me for doing something that is natural,” she said. Tiwa Savage said she was going public about the blackmail so she could control the narrative. “I’m that crazy I could put it out myself. You’re not making any money off of this.”
