Popular Nigerian disc jockey and billionaire heiress, Florence Ifeoluwa Otedola, better known as DJ Cuppy, has stirred buzz online after admitting she still doesn’t know how to cook rice.
The entertainer made this revelation on July 30th, 2025, via her verified X (formerly Twitter) page, confessing that she still calls her mother to ask how long it takes to boil rice.
Cuppy, daughter of business mogul Femi Otedola, shared the tweet in a lighthearted tone, revealing that despite her success and education, including three degrees and a recent second master’s from Oxford University, cooking remains a struggle.
Her post comes as her father prepares to launch his highly anticipated memoir, “Making It Big”, set for release in August 2025. While the memoir focuses on business and success, Cuppy’s candid confession offered a humorous contrast, highlighting the reality behind even the most accomplished lives.
Social media users have since flooded her comment section, reacting with a mix of amusement, surprise, and empathy.
DJ Cuppy, who is going to clock 33-year-old in November, tweeted; “Making it big… but still calling my mum to ask how long to boil rice 😅.”

@MAGUOWO : And you are proud saying it instead of being ashamed of yourself.
@KE__lV_iN: Making it big without kids? Without a nuclear family?
@CableAnalyst: She failed in her responsibilities, it’s bitter but the truth at this age no husband and you still can’t boil common rice 🍚.
@Newben82 : Sorry, Mama Pikin. You see how sweet it is to call Mama to ask how long to boil rice? Now, start acting to ensure your own blood pikin go also call you to ask you their own questions too. As a Woman, time is of the essence. Person born you, it is only natural that you born person too, so the circle can continue.
@skidy_jay: Baby don’t worry i will teach everything you need to know , no need of calling mum.
