Musician Sanaipei Tande recently addressed online rumors suggesting she is pregnant. In a YouTube interview on March 12th, she firmly denied these claims.

Sanaipei discussed her experiences with various rumors throughout her career. She acknowledged the initial challenges of navigating public scrutiny and learning to deal with fabricated stories.

“When I was 19, when I first came into the industry, I thought everything was black and white but then I learnt from being behind the scenes, that that oh my goodness, people just really create their own stuff.”

“They can fabricate a whole story. So back then there was a lot of fear. I thought everything was black and white. Then I come and figured out that people just create stories, or try and get you in a picture, in a compromising situation and then they blow up the whole thing.”

She emphasizes that with time, she has developed a thicker skin and understands the presence of negativity alongside positive media attention.

Sanaipei cites a recent instance where a random individual spread false information about her pregnancy online. She highlights the absurdity of such claims and the unnecessary focus on her physical appearance.

“And so now rumours don’t affect me. Say it. You say what you want. As recently as last week when I was impregnated by Twitter (now X).

What is that? Just a random chick decided to wake up and say Sanaipei is expecting. And then her body. That’s what she said. Everybody’s picked up on it and asking me is it true, is it not.”

She expresses her stance against engaging with cyberbullies and their attempts to spread misinformation.
