Tems Questions the Selective Nature of the Rumors
Tems suggested that the rumors might be fueled by Future’s reputation as a ladies’ man and his multiple children. She questioned the selective nature of the gossip, wondering why she isn’t being linked to her other collaborators in the same way.
“People just take the most controversial things. Because I was thinking like, why am I pregnant for Future? Why Future? Because that’s the craziest,” she said.”Why not Wizkid? Why not Drake? Why not somebody else? If it was Drake, it would be the same thing but the reason why it is Future is because of his reputation.”
Tems Denies the Pregnancy Rumors
In September 2023, Tems was accused of being impregnated by her “Wait For U” collaborator, to which she seemingly denied online. She revealed that the situation escalated to her receiving death threats.
“I didn’t actually think anybody believed it,” she began. “I didn’t know it was serious, I didn’t know until I started getting messages, like death threats. Like, ‘How dare you! Of all the people in the world, Future? Really? Really, of all the people?’ And I’ve never even—I’ve never met him in my life. So, it’s crazy.”
Tems Unfazed by Comments on Her Figure
During the interview, Tems also spoke about how some people only love her for her natural curves. She expressed that she is unbothered by comments on her figure, stating,
“Not at all, I don’t even notice it unless they’re telling me directly like, ‘Oh you’re beautiful’ or ‘You look good.’ I just think people are happy to see me.
