The clash between Peruzzi and influencer Pamilerin, which began over a Twitter spat in 2019, was rekindled recently when Pamilerin sent a casual ‘Hi’ to Peruzzi on Twitter.
The singer seized the opportunity to remind Pamilerin of their notorious past.
Peruzzi took to Twitter to remind Pamilerin of their previous altercation, saying, “A slap expires after three years. Ask the DPO for confirmation.” This comment brought their old beef back to the surface.
For those unfamiliar with the history between Peruzzi and Pamilerin, here’s a quick recap: In 2019, Pamilerin made several tweets mocking Peruzzi for losing at the Headies Awards and implying that he needed features to make a hit. Peruzzi, clearly agitated by the taunts, confronted Pamilerin in person and slapped him at an event, leaving the influencer with a red eye.
Following the incident, Peruzzi issued a public apology, acknowledging that his reaction was inappropriate but expressing that Pamilerin’s harsh words had hurt him deeply. Davido, a close associate of Peruzzi, also issued an apology on his behalf, explaining that while Peruzzi’s actions were wrong, the harsh comments made by Pamilerin contributed to the conflict.
The incident sparked numerous memes and became a significant topic of discussion online. Despite the apology and efforts to move past the altercation, the feud resurfaced with Peruzzi’s recent Twitter comment.
Celebrities reacting to online trolls with physical confrontations or legal actions is not uncommon. Actor Jim Iyke once famously confronted a troll, resulting in a physical altercation. Similarly, Toyin Abraham faced backlash for arresting a troll, demonstrating the varied ways celebrities handle online criticism.
