Writing and singing love songs has led a number of people to ask Afro pop star Vusi Nova if he had anyone special in his life and the muso always answered so boldly that he is single. Unlike most celebrities or men Vusi admits that his previous relationship left a huge effect on him that he can’t seem to date just anyone else.
“I am single right now. I had a person for a whole five years but we broke up. It’s hard to find someone else, especially when you are so used to a certain person. I just need to stop comparing people to my ex, because I think that’s my main issue.”
He said he didn’t like the fact that he might have to “date a couple of people” before he meets his soul mate. He admitted that he hates being single because he believes life is meant to be shared.
“My ideal partner is someone beautiful. I know people always say we shouldn’t look at physical appearance, but I think that’s bull. I want an extremely beautiful person but most importantly, a goal driven person I can build with.”
Vusi answered some love facts with TshisaLIVE :
