Award-winning Nigerian singer Tiwa Savage has revealed how nervousness almost ruined her performance at the historical coronation of the British monarch, King Charles III.

The Daily Post recalls that Tiwa Savage became the first Nigerian artist to perform at a British royal event after thrilling guests at King Charles III’s coronation concert and Big Lunch in March.

Appearing recently on the Good Morning Britain TV Show, Tiwa Savage admitted that she was nervous in the first few seconds 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’.”

The ‘Queen of Afrobeats, as she is fondly called, also described the British Queen Consort, Camilla, as “very lovely” during the show.
