Afrobeats diva, Grammy-winning Nigerian singer, songwriter, and record producer, Temilade Openiyi, popularly known as Tems, has set social media on fire after a bold, honest comment about love and relationships went viral.
In what appears to be one of her most unfiltered stance yet, Tems reportedly said she no longer believes in love, adding that many men today are only driven by physical motives.
In a recent interview with media personality Korty EO, she revealed: “I don’t fall in love anymore because a lot of these men just want to penetrate.” According to clips and posts circulating online, Tems expressed frustration with modern dating, suggesting that Many men are not genuinely interested in emotional connection and that their intention is purely for surface-level physical relations.
This comment has many fans divided, with some agreeing with her view that most men are only after physical relations and, as such, are no longer interested in serious relationships. At the same time, some argued that it doesn’t matter, that even guys who intend to establish a serious relationship still want physical relations, notwithstanding.
At the end of the day, Tems has sparked a conversation many people can relate to, whether they agree with her or not.
