Why does Ayesha Curry's old video make people so uncomfortable? Is it fair to judge her?

The world held back its breath in awe as it witnessed the classic Curry style in the semis against Serbia. His landing a match-winning three-pointer for 85-79 to wipe away the last vestiges of pressure and triumphantly walking away in style with three more to his enviable record, added another feather to his already feathery cap. The sensational Curry had turned the tides over in favor of Team USA once again, showing what he’s made of!

But hold on! We all have those moments where we feel on top of the world, wanting to bask in the spotlight for as long as we can, and out of nowhere one of our friends happens to pull out this crazy revelation that was supposed to remain a secret. And the next thing we know, we are looking for a hideout possibly beyond this planet! That’s what the Golden State Warriors’ star is facing at the moment. Celebs have a hard time drawing a line between their personal and professional lives. It’s all in the open for the world to see. As the 36-year-old fan-favorite was back with the golden glory, something else was back to greet him. His wife Ayesha Curry’s X-Year-Old video that has gone viral the moment it resurfaced!

As posted by one of the handles, The Truth (@TheTruthBerner) in the 18-second mini clip, Ayesha Curry claims while being seated with a group of ladies on the studio of The Real Show, “My husband really loves my feet (with exclamations of what from the room). So the light just hit them right that day and I was like, ‘Let me just snap this photo and send him a picture of my feet’. I always say when he says to send n**es, that’s what he’s getting- a picture of my bare feet” (followed by a loud guffaw). Even though the video is a year old, the Internet can’t seem to get over this! It soon erupted with memes flying everywhere right, left, and center. The floodgates had opened up!

Curry’s Living Nightmare: The uncomfortable unmasking of his desires

Remember the match where LeBron James‘ two clutch free throws brought a close-shave win of 145-144 to the LA Lakers against the Warriors? The same night when the 2 X MVP finished with 46 points but came a distant second as his team had lost, he was seen taking out all the pent-up frustration on his jersey, almost tearing it to half. Memories of this old video stirred up again and like a monster awakening from a deep sleep it took to the Internet streets. With one fan tweeting: “Ayesha said no feet pics if he loses” and another writing, “Ayesha time.”

While her comments on the show concerning her husband had been forgotten by many, some diehard fans couldn’t simply seem to get over this obsession. Ayesha Curry did try to make amends by saying that it was all a joke, but some hoop lovers were just hooked on to it. And just like that hand-twister friend of ours, they drop it at the perfectly curated moments when America can’t seem to soak enough of Curry’s basketball greatness at the recently concluded Paris Olympics.

What’s your perspective on:

Why does Ayesha Curry's old video make people so uncomfortable? Is it fair to judge her?

Have an interesting take?

That begs the question, how is the equation between the Currys like in real and not the reel life? Well, if you think of the textbook definition of what real love looks like, Steph and Ayesha Curry seem to fit perfectly well. The power couple met as teens in the 2000s and instantly hit it off. Since then, they have carved their own identities – with Steph dominating the hardcourt and the Canadian-American actress Ayesha in her glitzy world of acting and fashion with a rendezvous with the culinary arts off and on. The Currys have built uber-successful businesses, donated to charity, and have even been the top inspiration behind hit songs like “Be Careful” by Cardi B and “0 To 100” by Drake. “We were just kids,” Ayesha told People. “He was the cute boy at church that all of the girls were obsessed with, so I made a generalization that maybe he wasn’t for me.” Right then Steph added, “I don’t remember the exact first day I saw her,” joking, “There was no wind blowing in her face with a backlight.”
