Big Brother Naija Season 6 winner and a musician, Hazel Oyeze Onou, Popularly known as Whitemoney, has narrated an incident where he was prevented from meeting Grammy-winning singer, Burna Boy at a party in Lagos.
Whitemoney disputed speculations that he was bounced by Burna Boy’s bouncers, insisting that it was his own bouncers who prevented him from meeting the self-acclaimed ‘African Giant’.
The reality star said it is important for celebrities to maintain connection with fans who play a role in their rise to stardom and career success.
Speaking in an interview with media personality, Chude Jideonwo, Whitemoney said: “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?
