After seeing who Basketmouth called his 'award', many fans reacted, stating that their speculations about the two were true.

In a post she made, she noted that her direct message was only open for business and warned that any other thing apart from that was not welcomed.

She begged them in the name of God to stop sending her messages, as they are clogging her direct message on social media
