Maverick singer, Charles Oputa, popularly known as Charly Boy, has urged Nigerian celebrities to stop bringing their private lives to public attention.

He gave the advice while reacting to Nigerian power couple, 2baba and Annie Idibia’s marital crisis in a recent interview with TVC.

The septuagenarian boasted that the public wouldn’t be aware if he decided to divorce his wife.

“I feel sorry for the couple [2Face and Annie Idibia]. It’s unfortunate. But my advice would be, can we just keep our business private, away from the public?

“Social media has changed a lot but it’s up to the people, too. I’m not talking from a saintly perspective. I have had quarrels with my partner but we settle in the room privately.

“You don’t bring it outside to the public to settle. I think that’s wrong because if I were to stop leaving with my wife today, nobody would know about. I won’t make noise about it,” he said.

Brazilian adult content creator Anna Beatriz Pereira Alves, better known as Anna Polly, reportedly plunged to her death from the balcony of the hotel where she filmed a threesome with two men.

Anna, who was found dead in the hotel courtyard, was said to have invited the men to the hotel at Nova Iguaçu, northwest of Rio de Janeiro, to participate in the filming of content for an adult platform.

According to Mirror, police have started a full-scale investigation into the mysterious circumstances surrounding her death.

It is believed that the adult actress fell from the balcony while filming, but the men gave conflicting accounts of what led to her death.

While confirming the incident, police investigators described the ongoing investigation as ‘complex,’ adding that the police are keeping an open mind because the tragedy could be an accident or a crime.

A spokesman for the Baixada Fluminense Homicide Unit leading the investigation said: “We are conducting a thorough investigation to clarify what happened. It’s a complex case, and we don’t rule out any possibility, from an accident to a possible crime.”

The police homicide unit is reportedly analysing the hotel CCTV images as part of its investigation and has also questioned the staff.

Police are also looking at Anna’s mobile as part of the investigation.

Mirror reported that the results of a post-mortem carried out have not been made public, and it is not yet clear if it showed the presence of drugs in her system or showed her being the victim of sexual violence.
