Star beefs

3.  Tonto Dicka  vs. Mersy Johnson
Moving on from the music scene, we cannot ignore the beef between two other actresses, speaking of the queen of controversy herself Tonto Dikeh and Mercy Johnson. The reason for the beef between light skinned beauty, Tonto Dikeh and her fellow Nollywood actress Mercy Johnson is unclear but many believe that it boils down to envy on the part of one of the actresses.
Their beef is a normal diva showdown as to who is more talented and the beef became public when Poko as Tonto likes to be called refused to attend MJ’s wedding giving the excuse that they are not friends. As if that was not enough, she tweeted:
“@TONTOLET: Wen n if I give birth, God plz provide me wit a husband dat can provide 4 uz, Not 1 dat wld send mii bck to actin 2monthz after I born 2Huzzle”. This was a direct shot at Mercy Johnson who had just given birth at the time. Well we do hope they find a common ground some day.
4) Timaya Vs Patoranking
Fans might have enjoyed the song “Alubarika” by Patoranking featuring the egberi papa one of Bayelsa Timaya but they should not be expecting another collaboration from the two acts any time soon. According to the grapevines, the cause of their beef has to do with who has been funding Patoranking’s projects.
Timaya;s record label Dem Mama Records released Patoranking’s official debut single titled ‘ Alubarika’ and shortly dropped a video for it in August but in January 2014, Patoranking walked out on the music label much to everybody’s shock.
When we talk of the biggest music stars in Nigeria, two names that readily come to mind is that of Wizkid and Davido. Although Wizkid broke into the entertainment industry two years ahead of Davido with the success of his hit single “Holla At Your Boy” in 2009, Davido officially became a rival when he released his smashing chart topper “Dami Duro” in 2011.
These two stars have been pitched against each other in terms of talent, money, fan base, live performances and any other thing that a successful artiste can be judged by. These two haven’t also made the talks of beef between them any easier with their tweet fights. They had tongues wagging recently with their tweet fight about who holds ‘proper shows.’ Davido Vs Wizkid is a worthy topic to start a heated conversation.
