Don Jazzy, a Nigerian record producer, has warned ladies against doing the silhouette challenge on his Instagram page’s direct message (DM) because he has a girlfriend.
On Thursday, some videos containing sexually explicit content tagged #SilhoutteChallenge surfaced on Twitter.
In the clips, ladies could be seen posing in front of a doorway while showing off their sultry-near-nude bodies enmeshed in a red-hot dimly lit background which portrays the silhouette of their naked physiques.
As the controversial challenge went viral on the microblogging platform, Don Jazzy decried that some individuals were sending him such videos via his DM, despite being in a relationship.
“People are doing their own #SilhoutteChallenge inside my Instagram DM. I have a girlfriend o,” he tweeted.
People are doing their own #SilhoutteChallenge inside my instagram DM. 🤦🏽♂️. I have a girlfriend ooo.
Don Jazzy’s post comes after he had agreed to go on a date with Nazo Ekezie, an actress who had earlier expressed her admiration for him.
It also followed after the singer had publicly given up on a possible relationship with Rihanna Fenty, a Barbadian songstress.
Among those who have spoken against the challenge is Japheth Omojuwa, a public speaker, who warned “it crossed the line”.
“The #SilhoutteChallenge is a transition to another level. I don’t just know what that level is but we have certainly crossed a line into another place. I hope children are protected from all these,” Omojuwa wrote.

“Parents must take responsibility for what their children consume. The internet is generally an ungoverned space, no one will protect those kids for you.
“Married folks, do you guys discuss with each other before joining these relatively sexual challenges or the other person sees it on the timeline like the rest of us?”
