When Actor Femi Jacobs 'Weds' Bayray McNwizu

Femi 'Weds' Bayray

Nah nah nah! Not what you are thinking. The two fantastic actors fit each other very well but it was Akin Shuga, the leader of Shuga Band fame that caused a pseudo-holy matrimony ceremony between popular actress, Bayray Mcnwizu and fast rising actor, Femi Jacobs.

Shuga, that has been described by many in the society and entertainment circle as king of gigs, brought that appellation to bear during the recent shoot video for his new single, Married Today. The son of late Justice Tofowomo had brought some celebrities together at The Social Place in Victoria Island, Lagos.



A-list comedian, Tee-A was the compere for the night. MC Abbey, Princess and a host of other celebrities also star in the video which was shot by Filmboys, the directors behind Waje’s　No Be You.

Just as the Social Place provided the venue and decor, Bonix provided drinks, Astoria provided the food, Bobo’s Clothing provided Grooms costume, Abeke Makeovers did the bride’s make-up, Red 14 provided security, Soundpro provided the sound, Zapphaire provided ushers while EJ Treasures provided the cake.

Shuga, speaking on the expansive wedding setting for the video, said he needs to drive home the theme of the song. "Despite the very danceable beat and feel of the song, Married Today is still a wedding song. A song that talks about marriage from the starting-point of wedding so it will not be doing the song any form of justice if the video isn’t about proper wedding," he said.

He added that a lot of energy, goodwill and resources were expended to create the wedding atmosphere and the icing on the cake was getting two proper actors who can act to play the role of groom and bride.

Married Today is a new classic-like feel good wedding song that has gained huge popularity within a short time. It was produced by K-Solo.
