Superstar singer and entrepreneur Akon has said life felt simpler when he was involved in relationships with multiple women, a comment that has sparked debate around relationships and polygamy.

He made the remark in an interview with The Shade Room, where he reflected on how his personal life has changed over the years.

According to him, juggling multiple partners in the past came with less emotional pressure compared to being in a committed monogamous relationship.

“My life was very much easier when I had multiple women surrounding me, but me being with just one woman is a lot harder,” he said.

He suggested that variety in relationships reduced stress, although he did not go into detail about his current dating life.

When pressed on how many women he is currently involved with, Akon avoided a direct answer.

“I plead the fifth; it will be incriminating to answer,” he said, declining to elaborate further.

The comments have since generated mixed reactions online, with many debating the implications of his views on relationships and commitment.
