Asake Faces Backlash After Smashing Fan’s iPhone 16 Pro Max During Germany Concert
Nigerian singer Asake is under fire on social media after a video surfaced showing him smashing a fan’s iPhone 16 Pro Max during a recent concert in Germany.
The incident occurred when a fan, identified as Adeoti, attempted to take a picture with the Afrobeats star. In a viral video shared by Adeoti, Asake can be seen angrily grabbing the phone and smashing it to the ground, causing significant damage.
Adeoti captioned the video, expressing disappointment but still showing admiration for the artist. “@asakemusic You broke my iPhone 16 Pro Max. It’s not because they pissed off inside the nightclub that you are going to react like that towards a fan. Anyway, I still love you,” he wrote.
The footage has sparked widespread criticism on social media, with users expressing their disapproval of Asake’s actions.
One user, @CuriousCourtnie, commented, “That was unnecessarily aggressive,” while @Tony_runthings added, “Stop famzing all these celebrities, it’s not worth it.” Another user, @joseph_adegoke, said, “Aah, he go buy another one, I swear he will pay for what he didn’t buy.”
As of the time of this report, Asake has not publicly responded to the controversy surrounding the incident.
