In her response, Phyna mentioned Omah Lay, revealing that she has a quiet admiration for the singer.
“Actually, a Nigerian artiste that I can have one night with is Omah Lay. I low-key like Omah Lay,” she said.
However, she added that despite her interest, she believes the experience might not be as exciting as imagined, noting, “but I feel it is just going to be boring.”
Her statement has since generated mixed reactions on social media, with some fans finding her honesty amusing, while others debated the appropriateness of discussing such personal preferences publicly.

Phyna, known for her outspoken personality, has often made headlines for her candid takes on relationships and lifestyle choices.
Since rising to fame after winning the Big Brother Naija Season 7 reality show, she has remained a prominent figure in Nigeria’s entertainment space, frequently engaging with fans through livestreams and social media platforms.
On the other hand, Omah Lay, whose real name is Omah Stanley Didia, is widely regarded as one of the leading voices of his generation in Afrobeats.
Known for his introspective lyrics and unique sound, he has built a strong fan base both in Nigeria and internationally.
While comments like Phyna’s often stir online conversations, they also reflect the growing trend of celebrities sharing unfiltered opinions during live interactions with fans.
Such moments, though sometimes controversial, tend to humanise public figures and give audiences a glimpse into their personalities beyond curated public appearances.
As with many viral celebrity remarks, the discussion surrounding Phyna’s statement continues to evolve online, highlighting how personal opinions, especially those shared in informal settings, can quickly become topics of widespread public debate.
