That jiuhu punk is just another lame-ass attention cunt who should have been euthanized long ago, why even bother indulging him in his infantile antics?
“Stupid Joke”: Netizens Criticise Namewee Over Insensitive April Fool’s “Death” Prank
Malaysian-born singer Namewee is no stranger to controversy – but fans still support him because they love his outspoken nature and no-nonsense personality. However, his recent social media post has gotten even his most adoring fans calling him out for his insensitivity.
Namewee, whose real name is Wee Meng Chee, shared a couple of posts on his social media on 1st April. The first post is a black-and-white image of the public figure with the numbers “1983 – 2024” written on it. Unfortunately, there were no captions to accompany the image, so the mysterious post gives the impression that the star has passed away.
In addition to the black-and-white photo was a post for Namewee’s “memorial service”. The notice looked legitimate and included visitation hours and the time for a farewell ceremony. Even the venue written on the notice, Nirvana Centre KL or Nirvana 2, is an actual funeral home located in Kuala Lumpur. Like the first post, the notice was uncaptioned, leaving fans to question the legitimacy of the news.
Given that the star posted the two photos on 1st April, many fans quickly realised that Namewee’s mysterious posts were just an April Fool’s prank. Some said they were initially shocked before they realised the date. Others opined the celeb successfully pranked his fans because many had indeed fallen for the news.
However, not everyone was happy about the singer’s prank. Some fans said the posts were insensitive and called Namewee out for joking about death. Some even said it’s understandable for the star to want to play a prank on April Fool’s but lamented that he should have known better than to joke around on a serious topic.
It seems the posts were only a prank, so fans can rest well knowing Namewee is still alive. However, we’ll have to wait to see if the singer has anything else up his sleeve. Nevertheless, we hope Namewee will avoid using death to prank his fans, even if he had no ill intentions.
I'd love to see Bolehland authorities haul him up for investigation, just like they did with a certain Datuk Seri Chai Kee Kan. After all, Bumiputras hate Malaysian Chinese with a fervour and would leap at any chance to crucify their balls.

He faked his death lah!
This reeks of an advertising stunt executed in collaboration with Nirvana Columbarium hmmm
假如是开玩笑, 那未免太过分了
Maybe it's real, if so RIP to him 🙏

Let's hope that piece of human scum stays dead after today.
