Nigerian disc jockey, DJ Cuppy, has become the subject of a running joke on social media, as users humorously blame her for bringing bad luck to those she supports.

The trend resurfaced after British boxer Anthony Joshua's recent loss to Daniel Dubois. 

Following the match, DJ Cuppy, whose real name is Florence Otedola, shared a screenshot of a video call with Joshua, sparking a wave of playful criticism.

Many Twitter users jokingly pointed out that ever since Cuppy began publicly associating with Joshua, his winning streak has dwindled. 

This has led to her being labeled as an “unlucky charm” by some online. 

The jokes trace back to her earlier support for Manchester United during a period of poor performances. 

Fans noticed that after she distanced herself from the team, Manchester United's fortunes seemed to improve, fueling the origin of the humorous theory.

While these comments are made in jest, they have caught the attention of many, turning DJ Cuppy into a trending topic. 

Despite the lighthearted nature of the jokes, some fans have expressed that it’s all in good fun and part of the playful banter that comes with supporting celebrities and athletes.

DJ Cuppy, known for her vibrant personality and engagement with fans on social media, has yet to officially respond to the trend. 

However, her association with Anthony Joshua continues to be a source of entertainment for social media users, as the ‘Cuppy curse’ joke shows no signs of fading anytime soon.
