Rumours making rounds since September 19,
when producers of the Nigerian Idol talent show
launched the third season of the show, that
season 2 co-host, Tiwa Savage would not be
involved in the third season has been confirmed
as sources say the singer is focusing more on
her career and working assiduously on her debut
album expected before the year ends.
Another prominent person missing at the
September 19 event was one of the show’s
judges, Charly Boy who has now made it clear he
would still be on the judges’ seat, except this
time he’s going to be there as his alter ego he
referred to as Linda. So it will be Yinka Davies ,
Jeffrey Daniels , and Linda judging contestants on
Nigerian Idol, season 3.
Speaking to NET, Tiwa Savage ’s representative
said the Mavin Lady is focused on wrapping up
her debut album.
“It was difficult to combine with an increasingly
time-consuming schedule. Nigerian Idol is
something she will like to do again in the near
future but not before she releases her new
album amongst other things.”
Reacting to the issue, a rep for Optima Media
Group (OMG) says it’s early to make conclusions
on who’s in and who’s out.
“Why don’t we wait till the season starts, then you
can ask me”, says Tiwa Medubi.
If no replacements are made, Illrhymz may have
to host the third season alone.
Illrhymz and Tiwa Savage took over from pioneer
hosts, Misi Molu and Anis Halloway in September
2011.
