Top entertainment news of the week.
A singer and songwriter, Harrysong a.k.a Mr. Songz, has denied an alleged interview with Yes Magazine where he stated his parents are siblings.
The interview was published on April 22.
Harrysong called his statements in the interview appalling and noted that interview itself was fabricated.
In a statement signed by his media aide, the artiste said, “I have not granted any magazine an interview in the last 12 months where I spoke about my late parents so I find it worrisome, disheartening that a magazine would manufacture a story like such. It is disturbing”.
However, Yes Magazine is insisting that the interview with Harrysong was first published in 2012 and not ‘recently’ as claimed by the singer and some blogs.
