Omawunmi storms off from interview.Singer Omawumi stormed off the set of HFtv Da Chat show after she was asked to address rumors about her smoking and drinking habit by presenter Zinnia.
I have witnessed quite a few celebrities storm out of an interview in disgust,anger or just
because they could not handle the situation.But i can honestly says Omawunmi Megbele's walk out is the best i have seen.She was controlled,firm,principled and left Zinnia looking like a fool.The look on the presenters face was priceless.Omawunmi made her look like a little silly girl.And rightly so.Here was an interviewer she had known since 2007.

They might not be best friends but at least they are civil.She was patronizing Omawunmi at the start of the interview,calling her amazing and stuff.Why could she not have told her off camera that there would be certain questions? I also blame Omawunmi and her team,cos they should have demanded what questions are going to be asked before the interview.All big stars do this.
A visibly angry Omawumi told the presenter, Zinnia;
"I will not honour you with a response. I feel like that is a taint to my character. Have you seen me smoking before?" When the presenter said no, Omawumi said "So why would you say that? You see me as an artist, I am contributing what I can. I make music the way that I should and I come here and honour your invitation and then you sit down and talk about my smoking & drinking to people that are listening. And you're supposed to mean me well when these people are supposed to be the ones that are buying my music. Now, when you say that sort of thing, do you mean me well? You can't ask me to kill a rumour that you are not sure about...as a rumour, you need to go and dig and get your facts right before you ask somebody something ...and that is the end of this interview" she then stormed out.
