All this interviewers sef, be bringin up unneccessary topics. So tell me how does her drinking and smoking habits(i.e if she does do either of that) affect her singing or her self esteem?

We haven't heard anything bad about her naa

playtheblues:
That interviewer said that there's a rumour that Omawumi smokes.

My question is: who amongst us here had heard that 'rumour' before this interview?

The truth of the matter is that there was no rumour except the one the journalist was hoping to start.

These journalists can be very mean sometimes.

anitank:
good! atleast this would teach interviewers to compose relevant questions they want to ask before inviting someone for an interview. If you haven't seen her do it before why ask such a silly question?

Chicent:


yes there wasnt any rumour of such, she just used that as a lifeline since that was the only available thing she could hold. She asked the question wrongly, even if its a rumour.

Chicent:


whats false witness about that, does it mean there are no people around her that know her and what she does. I havent seen her/been with her since she came to limelight i would have known.

But if u talk about some other celebs female..... I can beat my chest and tell u they are, Cuz i have seen them do.

Haute:
Maybe that's her defense mechanism, or maybe she was just irritated by the question.

hemartins:
It's just an interview but she took it too personal.

Joyce28:
Omawunmi Smoking & drinking
Na wao! another story again

tunbebes:



I've heard it and I don't think it's a rumour. She smokes but it's possible marriage has changed he'd her sha.

Chicent:
It all depends on how she was asked the questions. If u heard it as a rumour u start by asking it as such. Its so simple.....

But her outburst shows she does smokes(or so i thought).

franklingud:
That zinnia of a girl must be stvpid for asking her that question.
Omawumi was right to ask her whether she has seen her smoke before.

Some people sef.

idupaul:


For real I have seen her and Wales smoking and drinking ..but that doesn't change the fact they are great people

lexylexy:


Even if she smokes and drinks,how is dat a problem. because she's a woman,they now want to make her look bad.Its like asking tuface or wizkid do u smoke and drink,its a very silly question no matter how u look at it.totally irrelevant question. U dey ask a whole warri babe if she drinks and smokes,well d interviewer got d answer she deserves. Abeg omababe carry on joor,nice one

Nigerians are the most hypocritical set of human beings alive today. Obama smoked marijuana while in havard, i repeat, while in havard and today he is the president of the USA. Nigerians don't have their priorities in order. These are the same people who jump up for joy when murder is committed and are here criticizing cigarettes. Ok.

scarred9jan:


Obama still smoked as president. He finally stopped the habit just six years ago.

Afritop:
Assuming CNN granted her interview, is that how she will behave

ideylaff:
Silly move that will dent her mediocre PR already.

She's trying to be what she's not .

They use the press and publicity when they want and now turn around act like they are something with the press and fans

So what would she have done if it was a forum where the up live where Allowed to ask different questions.

I'm so let downby her, I see her regularly with Waje @ least once in a month in a pub/bar in Lekki

Yes she does drink and smoke

banmee:


CNN won't ask such a s.tupid question.

playtheblues:
Then why did she get angry about the smoking question?

Afritop:

Who told you that
