Social media personality Catherine Oritsemehiyin, popularly known as Judas the Bead Maker, has stirred fresh conversation online after calling out beauty entrepreneur Adeola Adeyemi, also known as Diadem, following her 35th birthday celebration.
Diadem’s birthday party, held on Sunday, 13 April 2026, was nothing short of glamorous, with a strong turnout of young, influential female content creators, business owners, and social media personalities. It was the kind of event that dominated timelines, but not everyone was impressed.
In a video that has since gained attention, Judas addressed her followers with a warning: be rich before famous. Her statement came with a personal story.
According to her, Diadem had reached out weeks before the event, inviting her and promising an exclusive invitation box, on the condition that she was in Lagos. She claims she stayed back, waiting for the invite, but it never came.
Eventually, she returned to Abuja, empty handed. Now, she is left questioning what went wrong. Was it an oversight? Or something more intentional?
She openly wondered if the situation was a case of classism, suggesting that perhaps she did not meet the “standard” of guests who eventually made the list.
As expected, the internet is divided. While some sympathise with her experience, others argue that not every invitation must be fulfilled, especially in the world of curated, high-profile events.
