The actress criticised men who often flaunt their riches but fail to prioritise their hygiene, appearance and well-being:
"Why would a person have so much access to information, social media, Google, family and friends, but still lack personal hygiene or the desire to fix things that could contribute to their wellbeing and confidence?"
