Renowned videographer Darlington of Zero One Media has revealed that he first sought permission from Pretty Nicole’s mother before using her as a vixen in Mikie Wine’s ‘Kankutekemu’ song video.
For the past couple of days, singer Mikie Wine has faced social media criticism following Pretty Nicole taking on the role of a vixen in his video.
A section claimed that Pretty Nicole is a minor reportedly only 16 years old, and taking part in adult-themed scenes in the video was inappropriate.
While addressing the media, Darlington explained that he first encountered Pretty Nicole at his office at Freedom City, where she expressed her desire to pursue an acting career.
Darlington further states that when he was assigned to work on Mikie Wine’s song video, he employed Pretty Nicole to feature as a vixen in an effort to actualize her acting goals.
However, based on her controversial background, Darlington suggested that they make a written agreement, to avoid any potential adverse consequences.
Darlington went on to seek permission from Pretty Nicole’s mother, who approved that her daughter take on the role of a vixen and signed an agreement.
