Tiwa Savage Reveals Being Nervous Ahead Of Her Performance At Coronation Of King Charles III
Multiple-award-winning Nigerian singer Tiwa Savage has revealed that she was nervous at the beginning of her performance at King Charles III’s coronation.
To refresh your memory, in March, Tiwa Savage thrilled attendees at King Charles III’s coronation concert and Big Lunch by becoming the first Nigerian singer to perform at a British royal occasion.
In an interview with Good Morning Britain, the singer admitted that she was nervous during the first few minutes of her performance at Windsor Castle.
She said, “It was beautiful [to perform for the King]. It was such an amazing moment to represent the Commonwealth and to be on that stage. I was nervous, I will say the first few seconds. But as soon as I started singing, I said, ‘I have to just get swept away by the crowd’.”
Prior to the occasion, the singer met Camilla, the Queen Consort, while on a trip overseas. Tiwa Savage responded to the news by saying she was delighted to represent her culture at the ceremony.
“It’s truly an honour to be representing Africa and the Commonwealth at such a historic event. I look forward to joining the celebrations and bringing Afrobeats to Windsor Castle for the first time,”
she said.
