Singer Sean Tizzle opened up to The
Nation about how the media once ruined
the possibility of a romantic relationship
between himself and DJ Cuppy .
According to him, he had a crush on her
but the media blew it out of proportion
and she didn’t take it lightly.
He also talked about bleaching rumours,
his parents, endorsement deals and more.
See excerpts below.
On DJ Cuppy dating rumours: No, we
were not dating. She’s just my friend and
we are cool like that. People just took it
wrong, although I like her for so many
things.
On the possibility of a relationship : I told
her before but she was in school then and
she was trying to focus on her education.
When the media put that out she didn’t
take it too lightly and that kind of affected
the relationship. But me I go go work that
work to come tell her back say what’s up
girl, can we do it again?
On bleaching rumours: The media just
come out with a lot of unconfirmed
reports. You don’t know me from
anywhere and you just decide to criticize
me.
I never bleached my skin. Before the fame,
I used to be this guy that likes editing
pictures because I thought that it would
make me look fresh which was the same
mistake I made with the pictures I posted
then.
I posted a picture that I edited that same
way as it was already a part of me to use
filters on my pictures but unluckily for me
it backfired and people assumed that I
bleached my skin.
Sebi na me you dey see so, I resemble
person wey bleach? So now I just drop my
pictures the way it is now, I don’t edit
anymore.
On her journey into music: My late uncle
who worked at the Ikeja High Court told
me to come over for a job interview,which
I did. On the day of interview, I wore my
father’s suit and his shoe too which was
obviously too big for me.
I had to put tissue inside the shoe so it can
size me. I did a written interview which I
passed and then it was time for oral
interview and it was my turn.
The interviewer looked at me and asked
me to sing for him instead of asking me to
spell or do something from the book. I
thought he was joking.
So I sang my favourite R Kelly’s song, You
Saved Me.The man was surprised. That was
how I passed the interview and got the job.
From that moment I said ‘this music thing,
I’m going to give it all it takes.’
