Tiwa Savage reveals how nervous she was during performance at King Charles III’s coronation
Tiwa Savage, an award-winning Nigerian singer, has described how nervousness almost ruined her performance during the historic coronation of the British monarch, King Charles III.
Tiwa Savage made history in March when she performed at King Charles III’s coronation concert and Big Lunch, being the first Nigerian musician to do so.
Tiwa Savage recently confessed on Good Morning Britain that she felt nervous in the initial few seconds of her performance at Windsor Castle.
She said, “It was beautiful [to perform for the King]. It was such an amazing moment to represent the Commonwealth and to be on that stage.
“I was nervous, I will say the first few seconds. But as soon as I started singing, I said, ‘I have to just get swept away by the crowd’.”

During the show, the ‘Queen of Afrobeats,’ as she is fondly known, described the British Queen Consort, Camilla, as “very lovely.”
Before her historic performance at the coronation ceremony, Tiwa Savage and the Queen Consort met.
