In her message, DJ Cuppy admitted that stepping away from social media would be unusual for her, as she is known for sharing daily updates with her followers.
However, she stressed that the fast and the period of reflection are necessary at this point in her life.
She disclosed that after the past few weeks, she realised she needed to withdraw from the spotlight more than ever.
The singer explained that the 21-day fast would require focus, discipline, and quietness, which is why she chose to stay offline throughout the period.
Cuppy said the decision was not influenced by external pressure but by a personal conviction to prioritise her spiritual and emotional wellbeing.
“I need time for myself and time being hidden with God,” she wrote, hinting that she has personal matters she wants to process privately.
Anticipating concern from her followers, DJ Cuppy was quick to reassure them that she is doing well.
She urged fans not to panic, emphasising that her absence from social media does not mean anything is wrong.
The entertainer noted that although staying offline feels strange for someone who posts every day, she is fully committed to seeing the fast through.
She promised to return after the break, describing the pause as a moment to reconnect, refresh, and come back stronger.
