In a viral clip shared online, Iyabo Ojo recorded a white man entertaining guests at the club. With her signature playful energy, she told viewers:
The room erupted in laughter, including Funke herself, who watched the man with surprise before bursting out in loud, hearty laughter.

The 47-year-old filmmaker is in the UK alongside several colleagues to prepare for the December premiere of BTS, a movie already generating buzz.
Iyabo Ojo, 46, has been showing strong support, and the playful moment added an extra layer of excitement to their UK outing.
While the joke was all fun and games, some online users pointed out that Funke’s dating life has often been a topic of public curiosity.
The actress has been married twice, first to Kehinde Oloyede in 2012, and later to rapper JJC Skillz, a union that ended in 2022.
She is a proud mother of two children, though she keeps her family life mostly out of the spotlight.
