Uorfi Javed

Uorfi Javed, who recently won the reality show The Traitors and was also seen on the reality series Follow Karlo Yaar, is once again in the spotlight. The actor and social media sensation has often grabbed attention beyond fashion, making headlines for her fearless opinions and candid views.

Known for being real, unapologetic, and unfiltered, Uorfi has never shied away from speaking about uncomfortable truths, whether it is online trolling, body shaming, or the double standards faced by women in the entertainment industry. In an age where reality is often carefully curated, she has consistently chosen honesty over pretence. Staying true to that image, Uorfi recently opened up in a candid confession, revealing her real age and addressing the industry's long-standing obsession with age.

Uorfi Javed admits lying about her age

In the video, Uorfi addressed a long-standing misconception about her age , something she admits had been weighing heavily on her mind for a long time. Age has always been a sensitive topic in the entertainment industry, especially for women. Many feel pressured to fit into a certain bracket to remain "relevant," and Uorfi openly acknowledged that she, too, once felt that pressure. However, instead of letting the truth surface through speculation or rumours, she chose to own it herself.

Uorfi Javed makes a shocking revelation

As she posted a video on her Instagram, Uorfi says, "This is like a confession video. I've been wanting to say this for a really long time. Keeping it inside was driving me crazy. I was so confused about who to tell and what to say that I ended up stressing myself out. If you've seen my interviews, you'll know that everywhere I've said I was born in 1997. But that's not the truth. I wasn't born in 1997 I was born in 1995, and I'm actually 30 years old. You know how it is when you enter the industry people tend to hide their age. I thought, "What difference will two years make?" So I went along with it. But whenever someone asked me directly, I'd still say, "Oh, I'm 30," because I've just turned 30. Somewhere in my head, I always knew the truth would come out someday. So I thought, why not say it myself? Yes, I'm 30. I'm officially that age. And please, if anyone plans on inviting me out clubbing after 10 p.m., just know this I'm too old for that, guys."

The video quickly struck a chord with fans, many of whom praised Uorfi for normalising age and calling out the unrealistic expectations placed on women in showbiz. Her candid confession once again proves why she continues to stand out, not just as a fashion rebel, but as a voice of honesty in an industry that often prefers filters over facts.
