Recall that Zlatan held his wedding ceremony in Morocco last week, following his traditional marriage in Lagos on October 24, 2026.

However, speaking in the viral video, Wizkid explained that he doesn’t like going to parties or hanging around too many people.

When asked for his reason, he attributed it to his age and experience.

The interviewer asked, “Are you less accessible now?”

He responded, “I’m an introvert. I like staying indoors. I don’t like to do a lot of things. I don’t like to go to a lot of parties. I don’t hangout.

“I think that really comes from age and personal experiences. That’s not like how people perceived me. It’s just like I’m going older as each day passes. So, like getting smarter with my decisions, you just know what you want more as you grow older.

“I don’t go to parties, I don’t like to hang around too many people. Sometimes when I go to the party, I’m excited to be there. And some just spill a drink on me and I will be like, I could be at home with son. You know, just having a good time. Not like I feel insulted.”
