Queen of Afrobeats, Tiwa Savage has explained how she was able to overcome her nervousness during her performance at the coronation of the British monarch, King Charles III.

By her performance that thrilled the over 18,000,000 virtual and physical audience of the event that took place at Windsor Castle, Savage became the first Nigerian artiste to perform at a British royal event.

The ‘Somebody Son’ crooner in an interview on Good Morning Britain TV Show, said that the first few seconds of her performance at Windsor Castle was fraught with nerves.

She said, “It was beautiful [to perform for the King]. It was such an amazing moment to represent the Commonwealth and to be on that stage.

“I was nervous, I will say the first few seconds. But as soon as I started singing, I said, ‘I have to just get swept away by the crowd’.
