Nia Long Says She’s ‘Single AF’ After Twitter Hypes Up Her & Omarion

Social media was excited over the prospect of Nia Long and Omarion potentially being an item, though the actress clarified that she’s “single AF!”

Nia BRIEFLY Grabbed Omarion’s Hand At Premiere Of You People

The speculation about Nia and Omarion stems from footage of the pair together at the premiere of You People.

Specifically, Omarion uploaded a short video of him alongside Nia, and it showed the actress pulling him by the hand for a brief moment.

While the gesture was more of a hand pull, it wasn’t as egregious as if they were actually holding hands. However, this interaction was enough to spark some fun conversation and humorous reactions on social media!

Social Media Immediately Reacts To The Speculation

After Omarion uploaded this clip, people on Twitter started buzzing about the matter.

Many humorously expressed how devastated they were by the prospect of them being together.

However, others wanted to crack some jokey-jokes instead.

It was also speculated that Omarion may have attracted Nia with a particular set of skills, which were put on display with a watermelon during his Verzuz.

Nia’s The Best Man costar Taye Diggs was also brought up, as he’s dating Apryl Jones—Omarion’s ex.

All in all, plenty of users were cutting up about the optics of the video.

With all the buzz about Nia and Omarion, the actress swooped in and clarified that—despite the optics—she’s actually “single AF.” She also straight-up asked for “everybody to simmer down.”

So, while Nia and Omarion aren’t together, at least various Twitter users got to kiki about the celebrities for a quick minute!

Do you think the speculation was unwarranted, or do you think Omarion knew what he was doing by posting video of the interaction?
