A Nigerian music star, Ice Prince has stirred heated reactions online after declaring that eating breakfast is a “scam,” while opening up about his personal weight-loss journey and lifestyle changes ahead of a new project.
Speaking about how the transformation began, the singer explained that the decision was tied to his career and a new phase of his life.
“Anybody eating breakfast right now is a princess.”
According to him, discussions with his team earlier in the year pushed him to rethink his appearance and overall health.
In his words, “Dammy DAPA and Chopsticks told me we needed a new look for the next project. They said I should lose the belly, grow the beard, and something about it just sank in. That very day, I started my weight-loss journey.”
He went on to explain how his mindset around food completely changed.
“Everything that goes into your mouth should be medicine. It should play a role in your body. So I started watching what I eat. I started intermittent fasting, eating once a day, making ginger tea with turmeric, cloves and lemon.”
The singer added that he cut out sugar and alcohol almost entirely, adopted long walks and daily jogging, and eventually stopped eating breakfast altogether.
“I stopped drinking sugar, stopped alcohol. I walk every evening when I’m in Lagos and jog every morning by 5 a.m. I even cut off breakfast. Anybody eating breakfast right now is a princess. It’s a scam,” he said.
