Controversial personality Toxic wears many hats, fromsocialite to dancer turned singer. She spoke to Hot Secrets about her Europeantour, the love of her life, and her latest music project.
How is fame treating you?
Well, fame for me is somehow a bitch. So, I like to ignorethe fact that it exists.
What was the idea behind the Independent Video?
Independent is a song I wrote some time back when I wasstill dealing with another single I had just released and it didn’t do well inthe market. But I’m a fighter. I don’t give up. If you listen to its lyrics, ithighlights on dancing and the independence of a woman. I wanted to bring outthe two factors. Something that is different.
Are you recording any collabos?
Well, as for collabos, I won’t say much right now but i cansay for sure I have a few lined up. Until I have at least had the song conceptlaid out and we have started recording with the artists, ill keep it close tomy chest.
You are touring Europe right now, how is that like?
I have been to the UK for two weeks and its not bad. Forsome weird reason it felt no different from home apart from the good roads andtrains and fast Internet speeds.
What shows are lined up for you there?
I have had a couple of shows here in Germany, where I ambased. Recently, I performed in Augsburg, Gutersloh and I am currently gettingready to curtain raise for Awilo Longomba in his show here in Hamburg inDecember. I am still meeting new promoters in the field and I am sure I willhave more shows with time.
What is the last book you enjoyed reading…
To be honest, I’m not much of a book reader but the book Iwant to buy this year is The Power of a Praying Wife. I hear its nice and Ithink I’d love to read it.
A common misconception about me…
People think I’m this arrogant bitch who thinks she has herway with everything.

My worst childhood fears were…
Being raped.
My ideal night out is…
If you asked me that 2 years ago, I’d tell you partying outwith my gals in Westlands, but now, a quiet dinner with my man and a bit ofdancing would do perfect for me.
If I were a politician I would
Act more and speak less.
The best part of my job is…
Meeting different people with different characters, fromdifferent walks of life hence learning new things from them.
Living leader I admire…
Ahhhh… i guess this is where Martha Karua falls under. I admireher guts and if all women were like her - confidence wise - Kenya would be on adifferent level.
My greatest regret is…
I regret meeting the man of my dreams recently. I wish I’dmet him years ago.My greatest possession is…
My engagement ring.
