Afro-pop music star, JJC Skillz has dismissed rumours of a romantic relationship with actress Kate Henshaw after pictures from a music video shoot went viral on social media.

The singer, speaking with Entertainment News, explained that his relationship with the actress is strictly professional.

In a telephone chat, the “We Are Africans” crooner explained that the music video for ‘See Us Now’ is “basically about Nigeria; about the future I see for Nigeria and how I feel things should be and would be”.

Asked if there’s a special attachment to Kate Henshaw as she makes a second appearance in his music video, JJC Skillz said “a lot of people think so”.

He revealed they first met on the set of the music video shoot for his song African Skank, where she did “amazingly well” and “since then (obviously) we’ve been friends”.

He also heard the actress sing the National Anthem at an event and was “blown away by her vocal ability”, which was when he invited her to the studio for a recording session on the song “See Us Now”.
