Big Brother Naija Season 6 winner, Hazel Oyeze Onou, better known as Whitemoney has recounted how he missed out on the opportunity of meeting Afrobeats superstar, Burna Boy.
During an interview with media personality, Chude Jideonwo, WhiteMoney who is a huge fan of Burna Boy revealed that he simply wanted to meet one of his favorite singers but was convinced not to.
He clarified that the widespread belief of Burna Boy’s security team denying him access was incorrect. Instead, it was his own security personnel who stopped him from meeting the artist.
The entrepreneur who is also building his career in music noted the significance of staying connected with fans and supporters who contribute to a celebrity’s success by engaging with their music and content.
“We were at a party, and I heard that Burnaboy had just walked in. I’m a huge fan of Burna; left where I was because I wanted to go and greet him. I asked if I could say hi to burna, and they asked why? That was when I just withdrew, so people thought it was his bouncers bouncing, me, but it was my bouncer that told me, ‘Oga make we comot for here’.
“I’m not even sure Burna saw me, because I don’t think he’ll see me one on one, and he’ll tell me not to greet him. I know how many times I’ve told my bouncer, let them [fans and supporters] come greet me, if I lose them, would you pay me?
“These are the people who put me there. It is people who voted. It’s just like politics; if we vote you, we need access to you so if we vote you and we’ve made you a millionaire and you’re coming out to do buga.”
