Tems shares sad tale with men who desire her, says they only want to penetrate (Video)
Grammy Award-winning singer Temilade Openiyi, aka Tems, made a bold statement that has sparked significant online discussion.
Tems, in upcoming interview with Nigerian YouTuber Korty, candidly addressed her views on relationships and the intentions of some men.
While speaking in the teaser of the upcoming episode of Flow with Korty, she noted that some men don’t have an agenda aside from wanting to penetrate.
The host, Korty EO asked, “Have you been in love before?”
Tems replied, “A lot of guys, they are very obvious… There is no agenda but to penetrate.”
The Essence crooner also responded to how she handles bullies, stating that they often ask her why she talks slowly and demand that she speak like one who is alive.
According to Tems, she usually asks them if they are crazy because their questions upset her.
“Everything I did seemed to annoy everybody. They would say, ‘Why are you so slow? Why are you talking so slow? Talk like you are alive.’ And I would say, ‘You are very stupid. Are you crazy?’ I was upset all the time,” she said.
