The folks from Vibe Magazine sent their new cover in. The issue hits stands March 20. Now that Akon is going “mainstream” with sick record sales, he is now denying that he ever supported polygamy.
“There was a big rumour about me having many wives. It started off as a joke and it got serious. And then I was just running with it to see how far it’d go. In a way, I was causing controversy, ’cause I knew certain people that wouldn’t normally attend to me, that will make them go, ‘What?’ So, in a way, it was a publicity stunt.”
SMH.
