Nigerian DJ and music star, DJ Cuppy, has revealed that despite her fame and accomplishments, she still leans on her mother for help in the kitchen.

The daughter of billionaire businessman Femi Otedola made this candid confession on her X (formerly Twitter) account, saying she still calls her mum, Nana Otedola, for guidance while preparing simple meals like rice.

Her post read:
“Making it big… but still calling my mum to ask how long to boil rice.”

The light-hearted admission quickly gained traction online, drawing a flurry of comments. While some fans found her honesty refreshing and relatable, others took the opportunity to question her domestic skills.

Here are some of the mixed reactions from users:

  • @Glorious2Smooth: “Cuppy, you really shouldn’t be saying this online. You might be scaring off potential husbands unknowingly.”

  • @Khaytweets: “Wait, does this mean you don’t cook for yourself?”

  • @Official_Patson: “And you’re still talking about looking for a husband?”

  • @Adeyemoshield: “Seriously, Aunty Cuppy? At your age, you can’t boil rice? Is this a joke or are you just playing around? Rich kids, una own too much.”

While DJ Cuppy’s post was likely shared in jest, it has reignited conversations around self-sufficiency, societal expectations, and the ever-watchful eye of social media.
