Nigerian content creator Kuye Adegoke, widely known as Egungun of Lagos, has broken silence after a leaked video that has sparked widespread reactions online.

The viral clip, which has been making rounds on social media, shows Egungun on a video call with an unidentified woman while brushing his teeth.

During the call, the content creator, dressed in shorts, accidentally exposed his private parts.

This incident follows closely on the heels of a revelation by his wife, Pashotah, regarding a blackmail attempt involving her husband’s private videos.

According to Pashotah, a Snapchat user had screen-recorded a video Egungun intended to send to her while he was traveling but inadvertently shared on his Snapchat story.

She had previously defended her husband and their marriage against these blackmail threats, asserting their unity despite the ordeal.

The recent developments have fueled online criticism, with many questioning Egungun’s reputation as a family man and casting doubt on Pashotah’s earlier defense of their relationship.

Unfazed by the backlash, Egungun shared a video on his Instagram page, seemingly brushing off the controversy.

The post features him dancing energetically with a woman in his living room to the hit song Gimme Love by Zlatan and Olamide.

He captioned it, “That’s massive baby but still give me your love baby”

Elton John, the British music icon, has revealed that he has lost his eyesight.

At the premiere of ‘The Devil Wears Prada: The Musical’ in London on Sunday, the 77-year-old pianist also disclosed that though he could not watch the show, he enjoyed listening to it.

Addressing the theatre audience, the award-winning singer said he appreciated his husband’s support during trying times.

“As some of you may know I have had issues and now I have lost my sight. I haven’t been able to see the performance but I have enjoyed it,” he said.

“To my husband, who has been my rock because I have not been able to come to many of the previews.

“It’s hard for me to see it, but I love to hear it and it sounded good tonight.”

The music icon had earlier shared that he lost vision in one eye after contracting a severe eye infection during his vacation.

John is one of the best-selling artistes of all time. He is known for hits like ‘Your Song’, ‘Rocket Man’ and ‘I’m Still Standing’.

He has sold over 300 million records worldwide in a music career spanning six decades.

John has received five Grammy Awards and five Brit Awards; including Outstanding Contribution to Music; two Academy Awards, and two Golden Globes.

He also has a Tony Award, a Laurence Olivier Award, a Disney Legends Award, and the Kennedy Center Honour.

Chart-topping K-pop group NewJeans announced Thursday their decision to leave their label ADOR, accusing the company of “mistreatment”.

The news comes two weeks after the girl group sent an ultimatum to ADOR parent company HYBE — behind K-pop sensation BTS — telling the firm they would terminate their contract unless a set of demands was met.

“From midnight today, our contract will be terminated with ADOR,” member Minji said at a press conference.

NewJeans made their debut in 2022 and the K-pop phenomenon is among HYBE’s most successful groups.

Band member Hanni said Thursday the group has “faced mistreatment, not just towards us but also including our staff”, without elaborating.

NewJeans experienced “deliberate miscommunications and manipulation regarding multiple areas”, she said.

“This is not the type of work ethic we respect and not one we want to be a part of, and to continue working under a company with no intention of protecting NewJeans would only do us harm,” said Hanni.

ADOR did not immediately respond to AFP requests to comment on the announcement.

The band members said they would continue with their contractual obligations, but acknowledged they may no longer be able to use the name NewJeans.

“However, that doesn’t mean that we are giving up on the name at all,” said Danielle.

“We will continue to fight for NewJeans. NewJeans never die.”

The group’s demands addressed to HYBE included an apology for a comment by one of the company’s managers, who is accused by NewJeans of bullying, and the immediate reinstatement of their producer Min Hee-jin.

Min resigned last week from ADOR’s board of directors after HYBE accused her of breach of trust, which sparked a sprawling legal and PR battle.

– ‘Predetermined outcome’ –
Industry experts said the decision by NewJeans was expected.

“The contract termination lawsuit itself has been widely anticipated in the market, so today’s press conference, in a way, seems to have a predetermined outcome,” said Lim Soo-jin, an analyst at Daishin Securities.

“Entertainment analysts have generally excluded NewJeans-related projections from next year’s estimates, so the overall impact is not expected to be substantial,” he told AFP.

The hefty fee which NewJeans may have to pay will compensate for “financial loss” at the label, he added.

The K-pop group may have to face a contractual penalty of up to 620 billion won ($440 million) according to legal experts.

The band members, however, disagree.

“We have not breached the exclusive contract and have done our best in our activities so far, so we believe there is no reason for us to pay any penalty,” said band member Haerin.

“On the contrary, it is ADOR and HYBE that violated the contract, leading to this situation, and the responsibility clearly lies with them.”
