Why I Don’t Go to Parties – Wizkid Opens Up About His Lifestyle

Nigerian music superstar Ayodeji Ibrahim Balogun, popularly known as Wizkid, has explained why he prefers staying indoors rather than attending parties and other social gatherings.

According to Daily Post, in a report published on Wednesday, November 11, 2026, the Grammy-winning singer made the revelation during a video interview that surfaced online on Tuesday.

His comments followed discussions among fans and social media users about his absence from events organised by some of his close associates, including fellow singer Zlatan Ibile.

Daily Post reports that Zlatan recently celebrated his wedding in Morocco after holding his traditional marriage ceremony in Lagos on October 24, 2026.

During the interview, Wizkid was asked whether he had become less accessible to people. Responding, the singer described himself as an introvert who enjoys spending time indoors and does not particularly enjoy attending parties or hanging out with large groups.

“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,” he said.

The singer explained that his preference for a quieter lifestyle developed through age and personal experiences. According to him, growing older has made him more conscious of his decisions and the things he wants to prioritise.

He also recalled an experience at a party where someone accidentally spilled a drink on him. Rather than taking offence, Wizkid said such situations sometimes make him realise that he would have been more comfortable staying at home with his son.

He stressed that his decision to avoid social gatherings should not be interpreted as disrespect towards people or an indication that he feels insulted by such incidents.

The singer’s comments have offered fans another glimpse into his personal lifestyle, particularly his preference for privacy and spending time away from crowded social events.
