Nollywood actress Yvonne Jegede celebrated a major career milestone in grand style, hosting a vibrant party to mark her 20th anniversary in the Nigerian entertainment industry. The event, held on Sunday, November 30, 2025, in Lagos, was a gathering of family, friends, and notable industry colleagues.
A Star-Studded Guest List
The celebration saw the attendance of several popular faces from Nollywood and the Nigerian music scene. Among the guests captured at the event were actor Nosa Rex, singer Orezi, and the iconic music duo of 2Baba and his wife, Natasha Osawaru, who is also an Edo State lawmaker. Their arrival became a focal point, with guests happily welcoming the couple and exchanging pleasantries.
A highlight of the evening was the moment 2Baba and Natasha joined the celebrant, Yvonne Jegede, on stage to cut a commemorative cake. The connection between the actress and the music star dates back to 2004, when Jegede was one of the three models featured in 2Baba's legendary music video for the hit song 'African Queen'.
Appearance Sparks Online Buzz and Speculation
The couple's public appearance at the party came just a few days after widespread reports claimed they had welcomed their first child together. This timing ignited a flurry of reactions and speculation on social media, with many commenters expressing surprise at seeing Natasha out so soon after the alleged childbirth.
Reactions compiled from social media platforms revealed a mix of humour, scepticism, and commentary. Some users questioned the timeline of events, with comments like "Are you guys sure that woman really give birth?" and "I thought Natasha just put to bed how many days ago." Others made references to 2Baba's former marriage, with one user stating, "Natasha Don’t Want Other Woman To do Her What She did Annie." Additional remarks focused on 2Baba's appearance and lightheartedly labelled the couple's outing as "protecting of investment."
Celebrating a Nollywood Journey
At the heart of the event was the celebration of Yvonne Jegede's two-decade-long contribution to Nollywood. The actress, clearly elated, rolled out the drums for this personal and professional milestone. The party served as a testament to her longevity and relationships within the competitive industry.
In related news, Natasha Osawaru had previously caused a buzz on social media with a public vow about her marriage to 2Baba. On Wednesday, November 26, she shared a loved-up picture from her birthday celebration on her Instagram story, captioning it with a prayer that handed their union into God's hands, further fueling public interest in their relationship.
The anniversary party successfully blended personal achievement with the unavoidable buzz of Nigerian celebrity culture, where personal milestones and public speculation often intersect.
