Yvonne Orji Is, In Fact, Still A Virgin
This isn't the first time that Orji's virgin status has been a matter of public intrigue. She first revealed to fans that she was still a virgin as a 33 year old all the way back in 2017. The actress confessed at the time that her plan was to wait until marriage, something she seems to still be sticking to. She also expressed the importance of talking about her decisions. She wanted to destigmatize the choices she was making, something fans have appreciated.
A few years later a fan on twitter called Orji the "meanest" celebrity she's ever met. When Orji saw the tweets online, she apologized for the unintended consequences of the situation. ""Hey Crystal, I’m saddened that’s how you left the event feeling after an encounter with me. Truly wasn’t my intention to make you feel anything less than the beautiful woman you are," she replied.
