Seyi Shay’s mean comment as feedback to a 17 year old auditioning on Nigeria Idol where she’s one of the judges has set tongues wagging at her.
The “Give me love” singer became a topic on social media as she was a total badass and cold-blooded in giving her feedback to a 17 year old Mayowa auditioning on Nigeria Idol. This comment of hers could be termed as the worse that has ever been said to a contestant of any reality show before. Not even almighty Simon Cowell has ever been this brutal in his feedback. This comment is bad enough to send the young man into depression.
In her feedback to Mayowa on his performance she said: who told you to come here for an audition, they are not your friend. Because that was not good audition. You have a sweet talking voice, and it shows in your singing voice. But your performance is terrible. You’re never going to make money being a singer. I love you, you’re so sweet, but you’re not a singer. Beep me up later, we’ll talk, but that singing thing is not going to work.
Nigerian’s are now reacking to her arful comments and are requesting for the organisaers to do something about her comment to the 17 year old contestant.
Dear @Nigerianidol
I really do not understand what is happening & I have nothing against your judges but Seyi Shay shouldn't talk to/act towards human beings the way she does because this can lead to depression and make sure that young man is okay #Nigerianidolfam#NigerianIdol pic.twitter.com/9eCUvpPHxm— Nina?

This moral killing comments has made people to ask what has become of her own music career and when she last made money from singing?
Although the boys performance was bad, it doesnt warrant the way she spoke to the little boy or is she just generally a mean person as not much is known of her personality in the media space rather than a singer whose career is down the drain and now making money through being a video vixen for other artist.
Some viewers have already began to call for the organisers to remove her from the table as she’s over zealous and doing too much to impress or standout. She needs to take a course in objective criticism or critiquing to know the different between killing a person’s moral and critiquing.
Here are some of the comments passed on her show of shame.
Dear @Nigerianidol,
Just fire Seyi Shay already, you need a judge not a morale killer!!
The clown even said 'i love you' ? pic.twitter.com/uSIaFTtOsQ— BBNaija Updates (@BigBroNaijaS6) March 28, 2021
For someone with a flopped music career you'll expect Seyi Shay to be a lot more empathetic towards the contestants.
Her criticism which wasn’t in any way objective Was so unnecessary— Azeez Olajide ❼ (@zeezish_) March 28, 2021
What on earth is wrong with Seyi Shay??? There's something called objective criticism for a reason! She lacks emotional intelligence… there are things you say that can break a person's confidence, and they might never gain it back! Rubbish!!!#NigerianIdol

Dear @NigerianIdol I hold nothing against seyi shay but as a fan of the show I think you need to address your judges on their choice of words, The mental health of the contestants should also be a concern to the program . Thanks .

A friend of mine went for the auditioning, He was brutally judged by this same sheyishey who by all indications is having her own hard time sitting on the fence as regards what her career is supposed to be and what she’s actually managing it to be. My friend came back feeling terrible and extremely regretful, despite all the pretense that all is well, I could feel it in the tone of his voice whilst on the phone with him. In fact, the video made its way through to University of Abuja where he studies, right now, he’s the subject of mockery in the school street.
Can you relate with such pain and the depression that comes thereafter?
Who is even Seyi Shay? Is she a Musician or a Slot?/How on earth can u make such derogatory statement on human being? Is she really singing?…. I think d judges should replace her with good musician like Waje Omawumi or even Simi.
