Grammy Award winner Temilade Openiyi, known as Tems, has revealed in a recent interview that she has never had a boyfriend throughout her life. The 29-year-old singer and songwriter shared this surprising detail during her appearance on the YouTube show “Is the Seat Taken,” hosted by media personality Chinasa Anukam.
A Groundbreaking Achievement
This revelation comes on the heels of Tems’ remarkable achievement of winning her second Grammy Award for Best African Music Performance at the 2025 Grammy Awards, bringing immense pride to Nigeria.
What is a “Mini Boyfriend”?
During the conversation with Chinasa Anukam, Tems mentioned that although she has never had a boyfriend, she does have what she refers to as a “mini boyfriend.” A brief investigation clarified that a mini boyfriend refers to a casual male companion who does not represent a serious commitment. In this context, a mini boyfriend is someone with whom one shares a close relationship and engages in activities typical of a romantic partnership, yet both parties agree that they do not have sufficient feelings for one another to pursue a formal relationship.
Tems’ candidness about her personal life has added a new dimension to her public persona, and her fans are eager to support her as she continues to break new ground in the music industry.
