MUSIC: Iyanya Says NO To Future Celebrity Relationships.

Iyanya is looking for a non-famous girl to settle down with.

In an interview with Punch, the Finito singer revealed he could never date a celebrity again.

Excerpts from the interview below.

What kind of woman do you want to settle down with?

A good woman is a good woman. You can’t just sit and say this is the
kind of woman I want. Some people think the best place to get a girl is
in the church; meanwhile, you can get the wrong girl in the right place.
Sometimes, I am worried about getting the right woman to marry because
of my status. I have had one or two women come into my life and act like
they are something. The safest thing to do is marry someone you have
known before you became a star.

After Yvonne Nelson, would you date a celebrity in the future?

Yvonne Nelson is an
amazing person, but I would never ever in my life
date or have anything to do with a female star. I am not cut out for
that kind of drama.

A lot of people think that fame has altered your personality. Is this true?

People have the right to believe whatever they want to. There is
nobody in this world that would attain this level of success and fame,
and remain the same. My life has changed and I am not going to tell you
otherwise. I am not Iyanya of eight years ago; I am more exposed and
have more fans. You can’t compare the pressure that was on me in 2008 to
the pressure on me now. For me to even have this level of sanity, I
believe it is God’s grace and people should pray and support me instead
of saying I have changed. You see me wearing nice suits but if I give a
fan my life to live for a week, not everybody will agree to continue
after a few days.

Why do you think so?

There is a lot of money but it comes with a lot of pressure. Imagine
waking up to people being rude to you on social media. You wake up to
curses because you tweeted that God just blessed you with a car, for
instance.

But you show off on social media…

Sincerely, I don’t show off. Anybody that thinks I show off is
suffering from inferiority complex. The only people that think I show
off are those people that think they could be me or people who wish they
could be close to me but can’t be. Maybe they like me too much and
don’t want to agree they like me that much. These same people spend
hours admiring the posts I put up.

What is the reason for putting up some of those pictures on Instagram and Twitter?

That is what social media is for. It is only in Nigeria that people
have a problem with you posting pictures. While you are complaining that
I am posting too many pictures, a true fan is admiring same and
considers me as a mentor. Believe me, a lot of people think they know
me, but they don’t.
