Ne-Yo has opened up more about his relationship while on a stream as the celeb is barraged with questions.

Singer and writer Ne-Yo caused a bit of a stir when he announced last year that he was dating not one, not two, not three but four different women.

Non-monogamy isn’t anything new, but it still remains quite uncommon in many places in the world, notably in the US.

Ne-Yo hasn’t shied away from talking about it however and has given insights into how he views his relationship with the four women, Cristina, Arielle, Moneii, and Bri.

He had previously discussed the dynamic on the The Angie Martinez Show and revealed that his partners don’t date anyone but him.

He said: “When I got with these women, I did not ask for their exclusivity.

"I did not demand their exclusivity. They asked for it. They came to me and said, 'I want to be exclusive to you and just you.'”

He continued: "You understand that your exclusivity to me does not mean my exclusivity to you. You understand this?’ ‘Yes.’ ‘You’re okay with this?’ ‘Yes.’ Okay cool, since you are offering your exclusivity and I’m taking it, now there’s rules that I need you to follow."

The singer has opened up again about his relationship, this time while on Kai Cenat’s stream.

The 45-year-old explained in a recent stream that he is focused on doing what is best for him, his children and his tribe.

When asked by Kai whether there are ever complications, Ne-Yo replied: “Well yeah, there are complications when there is just two people in a relationship so of course there is going to be when you are with four.”

He was also asked about whether he gets annoyed at the group of women, when just one of them has annoyed him and explained he does his best to control his emotions when irritated.

He explained that, just like with friendship groups, if one person in the group annoys you, you simply might not react how you normally would to another member.

The singer also broke down some of the things he likes best about each of them.

He said: “One is more serious than everyone else, she is the reliable one. If I walk out the house and forget something, she has got it.

“I have one that I laugh with all the time, everything is funny all day long, that is just what she does.

“I have my rider, this is the one if I was getting jumped she would jump in and help me.

“And then I have my eclectic, she is the dancer, she is my artist.

“So everyone has their own thing and it works, it works perfectly.”
