Nigerian disc jockey and billionaire heiress, Florence Otedola, popularly known as DJ Cuppy, has revealed that she feels and looks better since she stopped watching football and worrying about Manchester United’s struggles.
The music star remarked on Wednesday night after the Premier League giants were shockingly eliminated from the Carabao Cup by fourth-division side, Grimsby Town.
Taking to her X (formerly Twitter) handle, DJ Cuppy wrote:
“See as I just come fresh since I stopped watching football and stressing over Man Utd.”
Cuppy, who has long been known for her outspoken love of football, initially supported Arsenal FC before publicly switching allegiance to Manchester United a few years ago. Her decision to dump the Gunners came after a string of poor performances that left her frustrated.
However, her romance with United has also soured in recent years, as the club’s struggles on both domestic and European fronts have continued to dampen the spirits of their global fan base.
For fans, Cuppy’s latest statement is both humorous and relatable, as it captures the emotional toll football clubs often have on their supporters. By playfully linking her “freshness” to stepping back from the Red Devils’ troubles, she showed a lighter, more personal side of herself beyond music and entrepreneurship.

Manchester United, once a dominant force in English football, have endured a turbulent run in recent years, failing to match their historic successes under legendary manager Sir Alex Ferguson. Their shock defeat to Grimsby Town has only amplified frustration among fans, many of whom share Cuppy’s sentiments of disillusionment.
While her football affiliations often make headlines, DJ Cuppy remains one of Nigeria’s most prominent entertainers and entrepreneurs. Beyond her career as a disc jockey and singer, she is also a philanthropist and media personality who frequently uses her platform to share her passions, lifestyle choices, and candid reflections.
With this latest revelation, it seems Cuppy has chosen peace of mind and personal wellness over the rollercoaster of emotions that comes with being a Manchester United supporter.
