Indian American comedian Akaash Singh and podcaster Myron Gaines have once again stirred up buzz on social media as their revived feud on X has sparked a wave of reactions, memes, and commentary. While the online exchange grabbed attention, it has also prompted many to ask: Who is Akaash Singh, and who is the woman by his side?
Akaash Singh has been married to Jasleen Singh since July 2021. Their story began in 2015, when Jasleen accompanied her sister to one of his standup shows. Jasleen’s sister was already a fan of his comedy and wanted to see him live. After the show, on a chilly night, Akaash offered Jasleen his jacket. That small gesture marked the beginning of their connection and later, led to their relationship.
Who is Jasleen Singh?
Jasleen Singh is more than just Akaash Singh’s wife. She has carved out her own identity as a podcast host and professional. She co-hosts the “Main Character Podcast” with Nehal Tenany, a show that has recently gained attention amid ongoing online discussions.
She holds a degree in Finance and Business Analytics from Drexel University, where she laid the foundation for her corporate career. During her internship at Goldman Sachs, she crossed paths with Akaash, a moment that set the stage for their personal journey.
Her professional experience spans both corporate and media spaces. After working with Deloitte Consulting, she pursued a master’s degree in Business Journalism from New York University. She briefly worked as a news reporter before transitioning to independent media and launching entrepreneurial ventures, including her podcast.
Podcast controversy draws attention
In a recent episode of the “Main Character Podcast,” Jasleen and co-host Nehal Tenany discussed bold and unconventional topics, including conversations around threesomes. This content quickly sparked debate and criticism online.
Among the most vocal critics was Myron Gaines, co-host of the “Fresh and Fit” podcast, whose longstanding feud with Akaash Singh added fuel to the controversy and drew even more public attention to the exchange.
