Aisha Noor, popularly known as Truphena from The Real House Helps of Kawangware, has issued a strong message to men in the entertainment industry, urging them to be more intentional about the relationships they form and the publicity they generate.
Speaking during a recent interview on TV47’s Matukio, hosted by Paul Kirobi, Truphena warned that dating outside the industry without clear boundaries often fuels unnecessary drama and content-driven conflicts online.
“Men in the entertainment industry, stop dating women who have no clue about the industry,” she said.
“You take a girl who’s not in the industry, you give her publicity, and after you break up, the only thing you’ve done is leave a child and endless content for the online in-laws.”
Without mentioning names, Truphena appeared to reference recent viral trends where children and family moments are turned into social media material.
“Some go to the extent of pinching a child to start crying so they can record and get attention,” she claimed, adding that such actions create pressure for creators who prefer to keep their work professional.
She further criticized what she described as “clout chasing,” alleging that some individuals “pay bloggers so their content can trend,” while others resort to extreme measures to stay visible.
“I work hard for even one legal view,” she said. “Now I’m being pushed to do things I don’t believe in just to trend.”
Truphena also encouraged men to seek partners who align with their creative goals. “Date women who will help you grow in this industry,” she advised. “Not someone you make famous and then leave when the relationship ends.”
In a separate segment, the actress addressed the growing trend of cosmetic surgery among creators, particularly Brazilian Butt Lifts (BBLs).
“People were born with their own shapes,” she said. “Stop putting pressure on others to chase money just to follow trends. We were born with original bodies.”
Her remarks have since sparked debate online, with fans and fellow creators weighing in on relationships, authenticity, and the influence of social media culture in Kenya’s entertainment scene.
