Renowned chef Uriel Oputa has criticized comedian DeeOne for seeking attention with his age-shaming comments about veteran actress Genevieve Nnaji.

Genevieve Nnaji, who has maintained a low profile for the past year, recently showed support for singer Ayra Starr by sharing a video of herself listening to the Mavins artist's sophomore album on Instagram. The video went viral, with many admirers praising Genevieve for her youthful appearance despite her age.

Contrary to popular opinion, DeeOne urged fans to stop deceiving the actress, arguing that Genevieve is old and should begin taking on mother and grandmother roles instead of being described as young.

In response, Uriel took to her Instagram story to criticize DeeOne's remarks, asserting that certain topics should be off-limits. She emphasized that Genevieve is focusing on her mental health and noted the toxic nature of social media, where many individuals struggle with suicidal thoughts.

In her words:

"DeeOne, I love you, bro, but Genevieve? Come on, bro. There are things you just don’t dabble in at all. A woman that’s trying to get her mental health together! Bro, there are just things you don’t say; let it be a thought. Social media is toxic. We need to learn how to filter our thoughts. There are a lot of people on the brink of suicide. Not everything is content."
