Tems likens herself to an uncommon blossom in romantic partnerships.
Grammy-winning singer Temilade Openiyi, popularly known as Tems, has provided a unique perspective on what it’s like to date her. The 29-year-old Afrobeat star likened the experience to discovering a rare flower.
In a recent chat with journalist Chinasa Anukam on the ‘Is This Seat Taken’ podcast, BigTems used a floral analogy to describe her personality.
She explained that while she may not appear attractive from the outside, there is an inner beauty waiting to be discovered.
“Dating me is like stumbling upon a rare species of flower that looks black from the outside. When you open it, you find pink and purple hues, and at its core, there’s a stone,” Tems said.
In other news, BigTems has made history by becoming the highest-charting Nigerian female artist on the Billboard 200.
