Headies: Moment Annie almost introduced herself as Idibia but immediately corrected herself and mentioned her maiden name, Macaulay (video)

At the 2025 Headies Awards, Nollywood actress Annie Macaulay had a moment that grabbed everyone’s attention. While on stage, she nearly introduced herself by her former last name, Idibia, which she used during her marriage to music legend 2Baba (formerly Tuface Idibia).

However, she quickly caught herself and proudly introduced herself with her maiden name, Macaulay. The crowd immediately noticed, cheering and showing their support. With a smile and playful energy, Annie excitedly shouted, “Hey, my single ladies!”—a fun and clear sign that she’s fully embracing her new chapter.

Some fans believe this was a purposeful move to show that she’s doing well, while others think it was an accidental slip, suggesting she might not be fully in tune with reality. Either way, it was a powerful moment that stood out at the event.
