Why I’m not married to Peller yet – TikToker Jarvis
TikTok star Amadou “Jarvis” Aminata has revealed why her wedding with fellow content creator Habeeb “Peller” Hamzat has yet to take place, despite the two being engaged.
Recall that Peller proposed to Jarvis in December 2024. In July, she confirmed their engagement during an interview on Channels Television, where she expressed confidence about marrying the 20-year-old, noting that she had come to better understand him over time.
However, during a recent TikTok live session, Jarvis explained that the delay was largely due to Peller’s age and circumstances.
“I’m old enough to get married but his (Peller’s) age is slowing me down. If he were older than me by now, we’d have married. One day, Peller could change his mind and say I’m too old for him and it’s true. I don’t want to pressure him to get married at this age. No, that would mean I have evil plans for him. I want him to learn and see what life actually is,” the 23-year-old said.
Jarvis also disclosed that she intended to marry in three years but raised concerns about Peller’s financial stability. “I’m still young and have a lot to achieve for myself, don’t cage me with marriage. Peller’s life wasn’t stable; he didn’t have a constant source of income. Peller’s income kept coming and going,” she said.
Peller, however, dismissed claims that age was holding him back from marrying Jarvis. Instead, he expressed fears that her parents might intervene in their relationship.
“It’s a lie, Amaka daddy can wake up one day and say to Jarvis’ mother, ‘I want to take Jarvis away from Lagos. They can take her at any time’. She’s not safe. She (Jarvis) likes me so much, but she’s acting as if she’s up to 30 years old,” Peller said.
The couple previously made headlines after a viral video surfaced showing Peller pushing Jarvis after a Seyi Vibes concert in Lagos.
Jarvis later clarified that Peller neither abused nor maltreated her, stressing that if he had, their relationship would have ended long ago.
Peller also defended himself, insisting that the video circulating online lacked context.
According to him, the push seen on camera was not an act of violence but normal play between them, adding that he was only trying to protect Jarvis from area boys who had approached them demanding money.

Celine Dion Makes Emotional Stage Comeback After Six Years
Canadian music superstar Celine Dion has made an emotional return to the concert stage after more than six years away, breaking down in tears as she reunited with thousands of fans during the opening night of her highly anticipated Paris residency.
The 58-year-old singer performed at the Plenitude Arena in Nanterre, near Paris, on Saturday, September 12, 2026, marking her first full concert since March 2020.
The comeback came after years of uncertainty surrounding Dion’s career following her diagnosis with stiff-person syndrome (SPS), a rare neurological disorder that causes muscle stiffness, spasms and other debilitating symptoms.
Dion revealed her diagnosis publicly in December 2022, explaining that the condition had affected her ability to walk, sing and perform.
The illness forced her to cancel concerts and eventually abandon the remaining dates of her Courage World Tour, leaving fans unsure whether she would ever return to the stage for a full concert.
But on Saturday night, Dion answered that question emphatically.
She opened the Paris show with her French-language song “On Ne Change Pas” and quickly became emotional as the significance of her return sank in.
The singer struggled to hold back tears before continuing with the performance, while the audience responded with loud cheers and applause.
Dion thanked her fans for standing by her throughout her difficult years away from the stage and recalled the promise she had made to return.
“I made a promise to come back and to be back on stage. Here I am singing for you, and singing for me,” she told the audience.
She also acknowledged the difficult journey that preceded her comeback, describing the road back to live performance as longer and harder than anticipated.
For Dion, the Paris concert was not simply the start of another series of shows. It represented the culmination of years of treatment, rehabilitation and determination to regain enough strength to perform again.
Reports on her preparations said the singer worked on her physical and vocal condition with a combination of therapy, medication, immunotherapy, Pilates and ballet training as she prepared for her return.
Her return to the stage comes two years after another major public comeback.
In July 2024, Dion performed “Hymne à l’amour” from the Eiffel Tower during the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics, delivering an emotional performance that marked her first public singing appearance in several years.
That performance was widely seen as a sign that she was determined to return to music despite the challenges posed by her condition.
Saturday’s concert, however, was a much greater undertaking because it required Dion to perform an entire set before a packed arena.
She performed several of the songs that have defined her career, including “My Heart Will Go On,” “All By Myself” and “Because You Loved Me,” while also showcasing her French-language repertoire. (Reuters)
The concert launched a sold-out Celine Dion Paris 2026 residency, which has generated enormous interest among fans around the world.
The residency was initially announced in March with 10 performances scheduled for September and October. Additional dates were later added following overwhelming demand, bringing the current series to 26 concerts, with performances extending into 2027. (Reuters)

The demand for tickets was extraordinary. Reports said millions of fans attempted to gain access to the ticket sale, while the shows quickly sold out.
The singer’s return also sparked celebrations across Paris, with fans gathering outside her hotel and at other locations to express their excitement ahead of the concert.
Paris itself embraced the comeback, with fan events and activities organised around the residency, including a large karaoke celebration featuring Dion’s songs.
For many fans, the significance of the concert went beyond entertainment.
Dion’s absence from the stage had been closely linked to her health struggles, making her decision to undertake a demanding concert residency a major personal and professional milestone.
Her stiff-person syndrome diagnosis had brought an abrupt interruption to a career that had already established her as one of the world’s most successful recording artists.
The condition is rare and can cause progressive muscle stiffness and painful spasms. Dion’s health challenges eventually became so severe that she was forced to step away from touring.
Her 2024 documentary, I Am: Celine Dion, also gave audiences a closer look at the impact of the condition on her life and career.
Despite the setbacks, Dion continued to work toward a return.
In April 2026, she released “Dansons,” a new French-language song written by renowned French songwriter Jean-Jacques Goldman, adding to the momentum surrounding her comeback.
Her connection with France has also remained particularly strong throughout her career. Dion has achieved major success with both French and English-language music and has repeatedly described France as an important part of her artistic journey.
That connection was evident during Saturday’s concert, which featured a substantial amount of French-language material.
The emotional reaction from the audience underscored Dion’s enduring popularity.
As she sang, fans joined in, applauded and celebrated the return of an artist many had feared they might never see perform a full concert again.
The comeback also reaffirmed Dion’s status as one of the best-selling music artists of all time, with a career spanning decades and global hits that have reached audiences across generations.
Among her most recognisable songs is “My Heart Will Go On,” the theme song from the blockbuster film Titanic, which became one of the defining recordings of her career.
Dion’s Paris return now opens a new chapter in a career that appeared uncertain just a few years ago.
While she continues to manage stiff-person syndrome, her first full concert in more than six years demonstrates her determination to remain connected with audiences and continue performing.
For the thousands who watched her return in Paris, the tears, cheers and standing ovations represented more than the comeback of a global music star.
They marked the return of an artist who spent years battling a rare neurological condition, stepped away from the stage and ultimately kept her promise to come back.
Celine Dion is back on stage — and her emotional Paris comeback has given fans around the world a powerful reminder of her enduring voice, resilience and connection with her audience.

Veteran Nollywood actress, Omotunde Ogundimu, has appealed to Nigerians and well-meaning individuals for financial assistance as she continues her battle with cervical cancer, a condition she says has subjected her to severe pain and prolonged treatment.
The actress, who has reportedly been battling the disease since 2024, made the emotional appeal as she struggles to raise the funds required to continue her medical treatment.

The actress’ disclosure has once again drawn attention to the enormous financial burden often associated with prolonged cancer treatment in Nigeria.

The actress is therefore seeking assistance from individuals, organisations, colleagues in the entertainment industry and other well-meaning Nigerians who may be able to contribute towards her continued treatment.
Fans rally around veteran actress
Following her appeal, messages of concern and encouragement have continued to emerge from members of the public who expressed their desire to see the veteran actress recover.
Ogundimu’s situation has also renewed discussions about the challenges confronting veteran actors, particularly those who may no longer have regular acting jobs but require substantial financial resources when faced with serious health conditions.
The actress’ appeal is coming at a time when several Nigerian entertainers have publicly sought financial assistance to cope with major medical challenges.
As Ogundimu continues her treatment, her supporters have urged Nigerians to offer whatever assistance they can and to keep her in their prayers.
Newstrends.ng wishes Omotunde Ogundimu strength and a successful recovery as she continues her battle with the disease.
