Marry! D’Banj’s Mother Cries Out
D’banj may have to get
married soon if he will listen to what his mother is telling him. The old woman is tired of his bachelorhood status and rumours of his many affairs with women. According to our source his mother is putting pressure on him to get married. “She said I don’t care about your success, maybe it is this success that is making you not get married.”
The singer who is hosting the MTV produced show – “Lipsync Battle Africa’ is having something else in his mind, joining the movie industry, but it is not Hollywood. He revealed that he might be on ‘Isidingo’ soon and would be starting a reality show too. “He said: “once you say you are entertainer you don’t want to limit yourself. So yes, I am going into Hollywood. It might be here in South Africa where I”ll be having a reality show about me. I told you I might be on ‘Isidingo’ soon.”
That is a great news for his fans who would want to see how good he is at another aspect of entertainment. Since D’bang found success in music, he has been too busy falling in love but not able to get his hands on the right person who would make him change his mind about bachelorhood. Now, that his mum has spoken, we earnestly wish that he takes this advise and marry soon.
It would be recalled that the Kokomaster has allegedly dated a few influential celebrities which include Genevieve Nnaji and when we thought that he was going to settle with any of them, he moves on.
