Speaking in the latest episode of the Zero Conditions podcast, Teni said: “I went through a lot. I went through a lot of changes. I lost weight, and some unfortunate fellows said I did surgery.

“If I did surgery my stomach will be flat. I wish, but I was scared. Surgery is not easy. It’s life-threatening. It’s not easy to go under the knife. I was on a strict diet. Ask my managers. No carbs. I was on a strict diet for two months.

“But it taught me discipline. The mind is also a muscle. The way you flex your arms, discipline helps you flex your mind. It was not easy. Do you know what it means for me to take people out on dinner, and I can’t eat what they are eating?"

Tenj released her recent album “Tears of the Sun” on November 17, 2023, and contains 16 tracks spanning 46 minutes. The album is currently eighth on Apple Music NG's top albums.
