I ghosted my girlfriend after meeting Davido – Peruzzi

By Adegboyega Adeleye

Nigerian singer Peruzzi revealed how a meeting with Afrobeats star Davido altered his life and ultimately led to the end of a seven‑year relationship.

During a recent episode of the “Lights, Camera, It’s My Turn” talk show, which featured media personalities VJ Adams, Tope Olowoniyan and singer Falz, Peruzzi admitted that he had “ghosted” his girlfriend for several days after being thrust into a lifestyle he had never known.

He explained that the thrill of traveling, fame and being around Davido caused him to lose touch with his partner at the time.

“I had a relationship that didn’t work because I didn’t text back for about three days. I was on some things. I wasn’t disconnecting from the world; it was just the ex. I didn’t text her; I was with my guys, enjoying life. First of all, I just met Davido,” he said.

Peruzzi described how quickly his reality shifted after meeting the DMW boss.

“Imagine this, you just met Davido, you met him today, and tomorrow you are on a flight to Dubai. The following day, a flight to Lebanon. I do not understand. I am calling whom?” he said.

He added that the excitement of his new lifestyle made it difficult to maintain constant communication with his girlfriend.

“Why do you think I would call you? First of all, I am enjoying something that has never happened to me in my life,” he stated.

When VJ Adams reminded him that his girlfriend was still waiting, Peruzzi responded with a joke.

“She no go die now,” he laughed.

Despite the humor, the singer acknowledged that the outcome might have been different had he been deeply in love at the time.

“Of course, I think to be honest, if it were somebody I was really in love with at that time, it might have been different,” he added.

The story has sparked online discussion about relationships, fame and the impact of sudden success on personal connections.

Peruzzi remains a prominent artist closely linked to Davido and DMW, having contributed to several hit songs in Nigeria’s Afrobeats scene over the years.
