In an exclusive chat with Pulse, the "Restless" singer admitted that at the time she won the award in 2009, she wasn't even aware of its existence.

"I was in Nigeria when I won the MOBO award and I didn't know what it was so I didn't take it seriously. I didn't even want to go for the ceremony. Someone had to break it down and explain what it was to me. The guys at MOBO insisted on flying me out, so I went with my sister from Lagos and it was cool. Kelly Rowland was on stage but I didn't do the red carpet though, I went through the back door."
