Gorgeous Nigerian-American singer-songwriter, recording artist and performer Tiwatope (Tiwa) Savage tied the knot today, in a traditional wedding, with her music manager and business partner Tunji Balogun aka T-Billz.
Held in Lagos, Nigeria, the traditional wedding event was a star studded affair as many Nigerian music, fashion and film industry personalities attended to support and celebrate with the couple.
