Nigerian singer-songwriter, Deborah Oluwaseyi Joshua, popularly known as Seyi Shay is pregnant.
The music superstar on Friday confirmed the recent pregnancy rumours as she unveiled her baby bump in her new video for her latest track, ‘Big Girl’ which was released via her YouTube channel.
In the music video, Shay shared a clip of her cradling her baby bump in the last few seconds of the video.
The video opens with a quote by Serena Williams: “The success of every woman should be an inspiration to another. We should raise each other up. Be very courageous: be strong but kind, and above all be humble.”
“Big Girl,” is produced by Kel-P, and is a reflection of Seyi Shay’s thoughts on the true definition of the words “Big Girl.”
To her, this means independence, embracing your journey, the experiences you’ve been through that have helped you to grow; and having the boldness to express vulnerability.
The Big Girl video was shot by Oyin Ameen for Hunter films Tv.
The pregnancy confirmation by the music star is coming after she announced her engagement in January during an interview with Beats FM.
She was asked about the noticeable diamond ring on her finger and she explained how she got it.
“Some guy gave it to me and said ‘hey would you marry me?” she said.
Shay added that her engagement was one of the reasons she has been glowing.
According to her, her relationship sealed the entire package.
The singer, songwriter and actress, released her debut studio album, Seyi or Shay, in November 2015.
It was supported by the promotional singles: “Irawo”; “Ragga Ragga”; “Right Now”, and “Murda” — featuring Patoranking and Shaydee.
In January 2021, she signed a publishing deal with Universal Music Publishing Group, France division, in partnership with Universal Music France.
