Rapper Diana Marua has been trending recently for all the wrong reasons. This was after a video of her admittng to dating several men resurfaced online, two years after she posted it.
In the video, Marua is seen and heard talking about how she dated several men for the sake of money. The mother of three attributed her behavior to growing up poor.
“I used to date men for money at some point in my life. Because I lacked the whole of my life to a point where all I wanted was a good life, all I wanted was to live well. I dated guys for money and I had one who paid my rent, another did my house shopping and I had someone to buy me clothes and another to take me out,” she said.
Marua went on to disclose that she used to change cars like diapers when she met Bahati. She said that even when she met Bahati, she wasn’t working but drove different cars every time they met, and she would lie to him that she ran a car hire business.
“Money for me was never a problem and I see people on social media talking about me dating Bahati for his money and all that. Guys I don’t want to brag but let me tell you, even when Bahati met me and we used to hang out, I used to come in different cars. When we meet today I had this car, the next time we met again I had another car and one day he asked me, ‘Where do you get all these cars?’ at that time we had not known each other that much,” she recalled.

Clearly dumbstruck by her confessions, netizens were quick to react about the same making Diana the trending topic on Twitter streets.
