A video making waves online has captured a tense exchange between popular content creator Peller and his partner, Jarvis, during a live-streaming session on their way to a major film premiere.

The premiere drew a star-studded crowd, including Femi Adebayo, Muyiwa Ademola, Ronke Oshodi-Oke, Biola Adebayo, Omowunmi Dada, Hilda Baci, Enioluwa Adeoluwa, Eniola Badmus, Kiekie, Segun Johnson, Toke Makinwa, Priscilla Ojo and her husband Juma Jux.

Other notable figures such as Funke Akindele, Fathia Williams, Mercy Aigbe, Mo Abudu, Pretty Mike, AY Makun, Odunlade Adekola, Rita Dominic and Florence Ita-Giwa were also in attendance.

However, attention shifted online to the viral video showing Jarvis visibly upset with Peller for allegedly giving more attention to his mother during the live session.

The situation appeared complicated by a language barrier: Peller is fluent in both English and Yoruba, while Jarvis does not fully understand Yoruba, and Peller’s mother reportedly does not understand English.

This left Peller caught in the middle, as he translated between the two.

In the clip, Jarvis challenged Peller to imagine how he would feel if the roles were reversed, suggesting he would not tolerate being sidelined in favour of her parent.

Peller, who was recently chased out of Alake's palace, relayed Jarvis’ comments to his mother, who dismissed the concerns and told him to ignore them.
