Nkonkonsa Celebrity Gossip From Africa
Afua Asantewa, the Ghanaian event organizer who recently attempted to break Guinness World Records’ longest singing marathon, is unfazed by criticism after naming Kuami Eugene as her crush.
Afua Asantewaa had in an interview with Joy Prime expressed her admiration for Kuami Eugene’s music talent.
She told the interviewer IB Ben Bako “Kuami Eugene is my crush oo.”
According to her, when highlife musician Kuami Eugene paid a visit to her at the Akwaaba Village during her sing-a-thon performance, she could not even remember some of her lyrics at the mere sight of the Rockstar.
“I said that guy came and I could not remember my lyrics. I said ‘this guy has worried me.’ If Guinness people don’t give me the record, it’s Kuami Eugene,” she quipped.
Afua added that her husband was aware of her fondness for Kuami Eugene.
Nonetheless, this has fueled a social media debate about whether it is appropriate for a married woman to openly declare her crush on a guy other than her spouse. Some people think it’s shallow to have a crush on someone, while others have criticized Afua for saying it.
“My husband knows. So when he got there I said ‘Kuami you have worried me. You shouldn’t have come. I sang ‘Asuoden’ and you know his rap comes after. As I stood there, I did everything I couldn’t remember,” she further noted.
Responding to the trolls and backlash on her Instagram Story, she wrote: “Aaaw, jokes turn bitter pills. Husby sef his crush is Omotola (honey will say ah bebe). Don’t give yourselves headache wai na life is too short. Wear Ghana, Eat Ghana and Tour Ghana to know Ghana.”
