‘He loves me’ – Tiwa Savage sparks dating rumours with Usher

Nigerian afrobeats star Tiwa Savage and American singer Usher Raymond have sparked relationship rumours after the two were spotted participating in the viral 30-Second Challenge together in London.

Usher invited Tiwa Savage as a special guest during his ‘Past Present Future’ tour at the O2 Arena in London on Wednesday night, where the audience erupted with excitement as they teamed up to perform Savage’s popular track, “Somebody’s Son.”

Later, at the afterparty, the pair took part in the 30-Second Challenge, which soon gained widespread attention online. In the playful moment, Usher encouraged Savage to freestyle for 30 seconds, and during her rap, she jokingly referred to him as someone who “loves her.” This lighthearted remark quickly sparked rumors about their potential relationship.

“I’m a little drunk! But it’s alright. I think I’m drunk enough, I think I’m drunk enough. Are you drunk enough? Usher, are you drunk enough? Listen, he loves me,” she freestyled amid cheers from the crowd, with her last statement particularly exciting them.

The viral clip elicited heavy reactions, with fans speculating that the duo were an item.

The cheeky line — “he loves me” — landed like a match in dry grass. Within hours, fans were dissecting video clips, GIFs, and reactions, fueling speculation that the musical synergy between the two may have evolved into something more personal.

But this wasn’t the first time the two shared a stage. Their onstage connection traces back to 2022, when Usher surprised fans by bringing out Savage during his headline performance at the Global Citizen Festival in Accra, Ghana. That performance marked the beginning of a visible musical camaraderie between the pair, one that now seems to be heating up again.

Neither Savage nor Usher has commented publicly on the growing rumors, but their undeniable chemistry, on-stage history, and increasingly frequent appearances together have fans intrigued.

Whether it’s a flirtatious friendship, a savvy collaboration, or the beginning of something deeper, the story of Tiwa and Usher is one fans are watching closely — and with no shortage of excitement.
