Seyi Shay dragged for telling Nigerian Idol contestant that he won’t make it as a singer (Video)

Nigerian singer, Seyi Shay, is currently being lambasted by social media users for her harsh words to a 17-year-old male contestant on musical talent show, Nigerian Idol.

After the young man’s performance, Seyi who is among the three judges, was unimpressed and told him he will do well as a songwriter, not a singer because he’s a ‘terrible’ performer.

Somebody lied to you. Somebody told you to come here and audition. You should go back and tell them that they aren’t your friend because that was not a good audition. You have a sweet talking voice and it comes out in your singing voice but your performance is terrible.

You are never going to make money being a singer. I love you, you are so sweet but you are not a singer. You are not a singer. For songwriting, hit me up, we could talk but that singing, it is not going to work. Sorry Darling,” she said.

Seyi Shay has been the number trending topic on Twitter as some Nigerians felt she was harsh on the contestant while others said she was objective.
