Tiwa Savage, a Grammy-winning singer from Nigeria, has pledged never again to tell her mother anything private.
She claims that after receiving an invitation to play at King Charles III’s coronation, she told her mother about it and begged her not to tell anyone, but the mother quickly told her brother.
This was revealed by the singer of “All Over” in an interview with MTV UK.
Tiwa Savage admitted that she wasn’t immediately aware of how significant it was for her to perform at the King’s coronation.
She remarked, “At first, I didn’t inform many people that I would be singing at the King’s coronation after I got the call. But eventually, I told my mother, and as usual, I begged her not to tell anyone. Then, exactly 20 minutes later, I receive a phone from my brother saying, “Oh my gush!” And I say, “Mom, wow!” I won’t be disclosing anything to my mother again.
“At first, I didn’t realize how significant it was that I performed during the King’s coronation. Additionally, I had no idea who else would be performing. I, therefore, had no idea that I would be the only Commonwealth representative. Therefore, when I began receiving that information, I thought, “Wow! No pressure.” But it was fantastic.
“As I said, I was looking back at the performance to represent the Commonwealth. It was famous. For me, it was a wonderful experience. After delighting guests at King Charles III’s coronation concert and Big Lunch in March, Tiwa Savage became the first Nigerian musician to perform at a British royal function.
