Recent social media activity has ignited a controversy within the Nigerian film industry. Actress Queeneth Hilbert has publicly accused colleague Destiny Etiko of engaging in an inappropriate relationship with Hilbert’s former boyfriend.

In a video circulating online, Hilbert alleges Etiko’s involvement with her ex-partner, going so far as to threaten physical confrontation should Etiko return to Asaba. The accusations stem from Etiko’s decision to unfollow Hilbert on social media, triggering a response filled with accusations of betrayal and opportunism.

Hilbert further claims that Etiko’s alleged actions are part of a pattern of interfering in the relationships of fellow actresses, targeting men who provide financial support. The veracity of these claims remains unconfirmed, and further developments are anticipated as this situation unfolds. The industry awaits a response from Ms. Etiko.

Amber Rose, the well-known American model, recently discussed her past relationships with younger men on the “Club Shay Shay” podcast with Shannon Sharpe. Her comments offer an interesting perspective on attraction, perceived value, and the dynamics of romantic relationships.

Rose explicitly stated that her involvement with younger men was primarily for enjoyment, not long-term commitment. Interestingly, she also highlighted the apparent influence she exerted on subsequent partners of her former flames. She posits that her prior association elevated the desirability of these men in the eyes of other women.

Rose’s experiences, involving figures like 21 Savage, when she was 33 and he was 24, highlight the complexities of age-gap relationships and the subjective nature of attraction. Whether her analysis of the subsequent dating choices of her ex-partners is accurate remains a point of conjecture, but it undeniably provides a unique insight into the perceived “value” conferred by celebrity association in the modern dating landscape.

Celebrated Nigerian singer-songwriter, Tiwa Savage, recently shed light on her decision to abstain from signing up-and-coming artists to her own label. In an interview with Forbes Africa, the artist cited a lack of aptitude for managing the often-unpredictable behavior of burgeoning talents as the primary reason.

Savage elaborated on her preference for a more structured approach to artist development, expressing her ambition to establish a music school. This institution, she believes, would provide aspiring musicians with the necessary skills and knowledge to thrive before potentially joining established labels equipped to manage their careers effectively.

Her sentiment highlights a pragmatic approach to fostering talent within the Nigerian music industry, focusing on empowerment through education rather than direct management. Savage’s vision proposes a sustainable pipeline for new artists, offering them a foundation for success regardless of their eventual label affiliation.
