It’s Better To Cry With Your Birkin – Tiwa Savage

In a trending video, Nigerian singer Tiwa Savage delivers a message of empowerment to women, highlighting the importance of being selective about the men they date.

She humorously begins by clarifying that her advice does not endorse prostitution and emphasises the value of financial independence.

Tiwa emphasises, "I’m not advocating for transactional relationships, nor am I suggesting you pursue a man solely for his wealth. I'm saying there's satisfaction in contributing financially, as I do with my earnings."

She stresses the significance of finding partners who match one's energy levels, citing herself as an example. Tiwa further suggests that while men can still cause heartbreak, it's preferable to endure such pain while surrounded by material comfort.

To illustrate her point, she elaborates, "So, my point is, match my enthusiasm. Men can still cause emotional hurt, so it's more comforting to have your Christian Dior, Birkin bag, and a private jet in Dubai as companions – although Dubai isn't our go-to destination anymore."

This isn't Tiwa's first time offering relationship advice to her followers. In March 2023, she cautioned women about men who return after leaving, shedding light on the complexity of such situations."

Novak Djokovic eased to victory at the Cincinnati Open in his first singles match in the United States in two years.

The victory was the 36-year-old's Serb's first-time playing singles in Cincinnati since 2019. However, on Tuesday, he lost in doubles when he and compatriot Nikola Cacic were beaten by Britain's Jamie Murray and Michael Venus of New Zealand.

Elsewhere, Australian qualifier Max Purcell beat third seed Casper Ruud in three sets for his first victory over a top-10-ranked player.

Purcell, the world number 70, saved six out of seven break points to win 6-4 3-6 6-4 and set up a meeting with three-time Grand Slam winner Stan Wawrinka.

The Swiss former world number three continued his return to form with a 6-3 6-4 win over American 16th seed Frances Tiafoe.

Sixth seed Jannik Sinneralso bowed out, losing 6-4 7-6 (7-1) to Serbian Dusan Lajovic.

Russian third seed Daniil Medvedev moved into the last 16 with a 6-3 6-2 win over Italy's Lorenzo Musetti.

Medvedev, who claimed the title in 2019 before reaching the US Open final, faces Germany's Alexander Zverev next.
