SOCIAL STATUS COMPLICATES MY MOVEMENT, TEMS

R&B star Temilade Openiyi, also known as Tems, has stated that she believes that she’s super famous in Nigeria.

Speaking in a podcast interview with Big Boy TV in the United States, Tems said her celebrity status sometimes complicates her movements in Nigeria.

She recalled almost getting mobbed while driving in Lagos last December.

According to her, she can’t drive in Nigeria without police escorts due to her popularity.

“I used to drive in Nigeria, but now I can’t drive. I almost got mobbed last December. If I want to drive, I must have police escorts at the front and the back,” she said.

Tems said she struggled with fame because she’s an introvert but later adjusted.
