Award winning
singer, Tiwa savage who has been a source of controversy since she released the
highly sexual visuals for ‘Wanted’ off her debut album “Once upon a time” was
recently interviewed by ‘Times South Africa’. During the interview, Savage

international female pop stars such as Rihanna, Miley Cyrus and Beyoncé. The
MTV ‘Shuga’ star said her video was clearly rated for people over 18 and not
for children, stating that being a role model does not stop her from exploring
her life as a woman and targeting the adult market. Via Times South Africa:

very uncomfortable with in public,” she said.

“But, fortunately,
as artists we have the platform to do things that a lot of people might not be
able to do. I felt like I was at a stage in my life at which I was very
comfortable in my skin. “I’d worked on my body and I wanted to do a video that
was pushing the envelope – that would have people talking and open up a
conversation.”

“There are a lot of people who love the video
and are inspired. You learn you can’t please everyone, so you do what feels
right at the time.” She said she wasn’t surprised that some broadcasters had
censored the video. “A lot of times you look at an artist and you think what
they do on stage is their lifestyle, but just because we portray a certain
thing on stage doesn’t mean when we get off the stage we sleep with every guy
we see,” she said. “It’s just a persona. I don’t think anyone can look at my
life and see any scandal. “That’s what parents should be teaching their
children. Whether Tiwa Savage does it or not, they will have access to certain
things that are bad, so we need to teach them how to decide between good and
bad.”
