American singer Chloe Bailey has set social media abuzz after being spotted with Nigerian Afrobeats sensation Burna Boy in Lagos, Nigeria.
The two stars were seen hanging out at a popular nightclub in Lagos on December 15, causing fans and online observers to speculate about the nature of their relationship.
In a viral video from the night, Burna Boy can be seen with his arm around Bailey, prompting widespread discussions online. Fans quickly began to ask if the two were just friends or if something more romantic was brewing between them.
The clip of the duo together sent shockwaves through social media, especially as Bailey, known for her music and acting career, is in Nigeria for the first time.
For many fans, it was the first time seeing Burna Boy with someone other than his former partner, Stefflon Don, who he was in a high-profile relationship with.
The sight of Burna Boy with Chloe Bailey has led to a flurry of reactions from Nigerians on social media. Some have expressed their surprise, while others have offered their opinions on the possible new couple.
“@HairVeezyn” tweeted, “So Burna Boy has a babe I didn’t know. Even young girls can’t recreate this; it’s older women he’s going for.”
Others, however, seemed more skeptical of the idea of a relationship between Burna Boy and the American singer. “@Xavier_Mykll” wrote, “The guy that was with Stefflon Don, why is Chloe Bailey now in his squad?”
But not everyone was doubtful. “@sharonelle” shared her thoughts saying, “Davido can’t pull this kind of babes, married or single.”
On the other hand, some fans are all for the possible pairing. “@JoyPeculiar5” tweeted, “Omg, definitely shipping these two. When can we start buying our asoebi?”—a reference to the popular Nigerian tradition of buying clothing for weddings.
The reaction from fans continues to pour in, with many eagerly awaiting any confirmation from either Burna Boy or Chloe Bailey. However, neither of the stars has made any public statements about the nature of their relationship.
Burna Boy, whose real name is Damini Ebunoluwa Ogulu, is no stranger to making headlines. Known for his hit songs like “Last Last” and “Anybody,” the Afrobeats star has enjoyed global fame, particularly following his Grammy win. He has previously been linked to several celebrities, including the British rapper Stefflon Don.
Chloe Bailey, on the other hand, is well known for her work in music as one-half of the duo Chloe x Halle. She has also made a name for herself in the acting world. Bailey’s career has seen her rise to prominence, with fans both in the U.S. and internationally praising her for her talent and beauty.
Both artists have large, dedicated followings, and the fact that they were seen together has only added fuel to the speculation about their relationship.
