Popular Nigerian media personality Adesope Shopsydoo has called on the public to show empathy towards artistes and entertainers.<\/p>\n He noted that they are humans with emotions and should not be held to unrealistic standards.<\/p>\n Speaking in an interview on TV3 on December 30, 2025, Adesope said that social media has become a space where people seek attention by expressing extreme opinions, either positive or negative.<\/p>\n \u201cSocial media has become a tool where people come to speak, whether it\u2019s positive or negative. The only way people get attention is by being at the extreme ends, whether extremely positive or extremely negative,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n According to him, most people artistes interact with online are individuals they may never meet in real life, making comment sections the primary avenue for engagements, often without empathy.<\/p>\n \u201c99.9% of the people you interact with on social media, you probably never meet in your life,\u201d he stated. <\/p>\n Adesope stressed that the success of individual artistes contributes to the overall growth of the entertainment industry.<\/p>\n How #PlayGhana Initiative led to Ghana’s streaming reclaim – Adesope Olajide explains<\/p>\n \u201cThe only opportunity for them to engage and interact with you is through comments. It\u2019s obvious that the bigger picture is if everyone wins, then everyone wins. <\/p>\n \u201cThe more success stories we have, the more opportunities are being created.

We are human beings and we get information just like everyone does but I try to be as fair as possible. I make sure everyone get their fair shots on my platform and I always advocate for them,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n Calling for compassion, he urged the public to lower the unrealistic expectations placed on entertainers.<\/p>\n \u201cGive a little bit of grace to artistes as well, they are human beings, they have emotions and we hold them to this high standard that we ourselves can\u2019t live up to. We expect entertainers to be the perfect human beings and it\u2019s impossible,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n FG\/AE<\/p>\n Watch Ofori Amponsah discuss interesting issues surrounding Lumba\u2019s death, career path on this episode of Talkertainment:<\/b>![\"Adesope](\"https:\/\/cdn.ghanaweb.com\/imagelib\/pics\/883\/88370177.295.jpg\" "\\"Adesope")
