Reality TV Star Whitemoney Sparks Controversy with Scathing Claim about Fellow Contestant Shallipopi
In a recent Instagram live session with his fans, Big Brother Naija ‘Shine Ya Eye’ winner Hazel Oyeze, popularly known as Whitemoney, made a bold statement that has sent shockwaves through the entertainment industry. The reality TV star took aim at his fellow contestant Shallipopi, claiming that he lacks a good singing voice.
Underscoring his own musical prowess, Whitemoney boasted that he is better equipped than Shallipopi in every aspect of the entertainment industry. “Shallipopi doesn’t have a wonderful voice,” he said. “In every angle, I am more than him.”
As of now, Shallipopi has yet to respond to Whitemoney’s scathing comments.
In a separate interview with Echoo Room, Whitemoney expressed his frustration with the entertainment industry in Nigeria. He cited the cases of Grammy award-winning artists like Burna Boy and Davido, who faced similar struggles before achieving international recognition.
Whitemoney warned that Nigerian show promoters will regret not supporting him once he becomes successful globally. “Nigerian promoters did the same thing they are doing to me to Burna Boy and Davido,” he said. “They don’t believe in their sounds, but when outsiders appreciate you, they will be forced to believe in you and pay twice.” He concluded, “Nigerian promoters will regret not supporting my music. Your only prayer should be that I shouldn’t make it in this music industry, because if I make it, you all will pay.”
