Veteran actress Genevieve Nnaji, known for her quiet social media presence, surprised many fans this week after she responded sharply—and humorously—to comments about her age on X (formerly Twitter).
On March 31, 2025, Nnaji shared a captionless headshot that drew thousands of reactions. While many praised her timeless beauty, others made remarks about her aging appearance.
One user, @MaiKeke, commented, “You really cannot cheat nature. My fine wine is finally growing old,” to which Genevieve replied, “It gets worse, bro. I’ll get so old I’ll die. If I’m lucky.”
Another user, @NaCallendron, said, “Mummy, you don old o.” She fired back with, “Daddy, I don’t wish it on you.”
Though she rarely engages with followers online, her sarcastic clapbacks quickly became the center of discussion across platforms. Some fans cheered her on, calling her responses bold and refreshing.
Others weighed in on the broader topic of how society views aging—especially among female celebrities—with many pointing out the unfair scrutiny women face as they grow older.
Despite the mixed reactions, Nnaji’s grace, humor, and enduring relevance once again proved why she remains a beloved figure in Nigerian entertainment.
