Pritty Vishy Fires Back at Muthee Kiengei Over Body Shaming: ‘I’ll Confront You in Church’
In a dramatic turn of events, content creator and social media influencer Pritty Vishy has fired back at Muthee Kiengei, a prominent Kenyan pastor and media personality, after he made derogatory comments about her appearance.
The controversy erupted after a video of Kiengei went viral, in which he harshly criticized Pritty Vishy’s looks and questioned her talent.
In the video, Kiengei, known for his bold and often controversial statements, was seen discussing the previous relationship between Pritty Vishy and musician Stevo Simple Boy.
His comments have sparked outrage, especially among Pritty’s fans and followers. “I hear people say, ‘I’m impressed by Stevo Simple Boy and Pritty Vishy’s marriage’,” Kiengei said in the video.
“That time Stevo is in Kibera crying because of Pritty Vishy’s pressure, because she found Stevo when he was already famous, and she also wants to be as famous. She wants to be famous through her fatness. Because she is not a musician, and she is not beautiful. She is not appealing.”
The remarks quickly ignited a backlash, with many accusing Kiengei of body shaming and misogyny. Pritty Vishy, who has built a substantial following on social media for her unapologetic attitude and candid posts, was quick to respond. In a lengthy and passionate message, she did not hold back, calling Kiengei’s words a “disgrace to Christianity.”
“How dare you, a man of God, speak such vile words against a woman? You, who are supposed to spread love and acceptance, are here judging someone based on their looks? This is a disgrace to Christianity, and you should be ashamed,” Pritty fired back. Her response resonated with many who saw Kiengei’s comments as not only hurtful but also hypocritical, given his position as a religious leader.
Pritty also made it clear that she would not let the pastor’s words go unanswered. She boldly declared her intention to confront Kiengei in person, stating, “I will come to your church, and I want you to look me in the eye and tell me I’m unattractive. Let’s see if you have the courage to do that.”

The incident has opened up a broader conversation about body image, the role of public figures in shaping societal norms, and the responsibility of religious leaders in promoting positive values. Many of Pritty’s supporters have rallied around her, praising her for standing up against what they see as an unjust attack. They argue that Kiengei’s comments reflect a deeper issue of how women are often judged and demeaned based on their physical appearance, rather than their character or abilities.
As the controversy continues to gain traction online, it remains to be seen how Kiengei will respond to the backlash. However, the incident has undoubtedly sparked a necessary dialogue about the intersection of religion, public discourse, and the treatment of women in society. Pritty Vishy’s courageous response serves as a powerful reminder that no one should be judged or belittled based on their looks and that everyone deserves respect and dignity, regardless of their appearance.
