That’s what I was taught.

[@Yahpah]

Geoffrey is a noble man! He understands its other people out there that’s least fortunate than him.

[@Msrikak87]

IMO, I feel like he wasn’t out here asking anyone for anything. People knew of his situation simply because they saw him out working like a real man should do to provide for his family shoot he was minding his business doing what he had to do. Maybe he didn’t want to feel like a charity case by accepting money from her and I don’t think he’s wrong for not accepting it.

[@MontasiaWrighton-bt7od]

On Queen radio she said her team was going to reach out to him she said she use to work in retail so she knows how hard it is to make ends meet and take care of his family so she blessed him to help him out!

[@burnettasimmons5440]

That’s nice of her to give him the money….it was gift…it was his to do what he thought best

[@Motivation_..Nation]

These content creators are full of it. How does Jay Z get your phone number? I hope the guy claiming Jay Z messed with his internet gets sued. Ridiculous. Also you can spoof numbers. A scammer called me and the caller ID said Malcolm X!

[@pepperann6288]

I don’t see the big deal with Owens. When you give something, make sure you are giving out of the kindness of your heart. That way whatever happens to it, no sweat off your back. Once he received it, he had full reign to do whatever he wanted with it, it was his money.

[@Pianokeys-ee5of]

Hey Nolan. 👋🏽 I just wanted to tell you that the actor's name in the first portion of your video is Geoffrey Owens, not Geoffrey Lewis. I appreciate your input! 🫡❤️

[@85chicaloca]

Jeffery didn’t ask for a handout. Helping someone in the truest form is taking the time to find out what the person needs helping instead of assuming that money is the answer. He wasn’t looking for charity, he was looking for an opportunity.

[@earthmatters8866]

Well maybe if he didn’t admit to STRUGGLING FINANCIALLY, then she wouldn’t have given him the 25k! Everything Nicki does is wrong 😂… damned if you do, damned if you don’t! Elvin is looking for an opportunity in the show biz m. Maybe he’s just not that guy they’re looking to cast 🤷🏻‍♀️… did that ever cross your mind?! Have you seen him relevant lately? Aside from today’s news? I didn’t think so ! I wish him the best, but he’s looking for television gigs and by putting this money ip for charity gave him the spotlight that he’s looking for! He used Nicki’s name to gain this clout! To each their own!

[@courtneypoole5986]

Like it's been stated before. Don't assume you know what someone needs. You can't be made at someone for not wanting to take money from you that they didn't ask for?! And the only reason he came out and said what he said is because people want to post every damn thing on the Internet instead of minding their business. Like be serious.

[@SandraSaidWhat]

Some people will always lack because of that mentality.

[@mweeming]

Wait why do we care that he doesn't want her money?

[@essenceiman7726]

I don't think he's doing that personally and because the content creators are always putting out misinformation and adding or subtracting from facts they could just be making it up

[@case0411]

Loved the intro today!!

[@zoegemini2486]

I don’t know, I’m with Owens on this, especially if he didn’t ask for it, and she just sent him the money unsolicited. Like you said, he’s from the older generation that values hard work over handouts. The fact that he was willing to work at Trader Joe’s to provide for his family says it all.

[@realjnolan]

Idk, I feel like decline if you’re not going to accept it for what it’s intended for. It’s not like an ugly birthday gift lol I’m sure that could’ve been money to help him catch up on some things. There’s a reason he was at the Trader Joe’s of all places but I wish him all the best

[@zoegemini2486]

@ I see your point as well.

[@AriesGirl7719]

Intro is fire! 🔥

[@DeeJoyce]

I'm old school....I would have applied that money to my personal finances. However there's no protocol if he decided to pay it forward.

[@Cramberrie93]

Not everyone is down for handouts like that. Plus it sometimes comes with favors in return. He don’t know Nicki like that. I think he should’ve kept this to himself. But I do agree with him about job opportunities or even helping him network if she can’t personally hire him for something. That’s just me. You can’t take money from everybody.

I respect Mr. Owen’s for how he handled the whole situation. He actually moved his mom and son to Montclair, NJ and anyone who knows knows that expensive-we lived on the same street. I was renting and he bought his home. His son was in private school. He came to the street parties. Really nice guy. A Karen decided to record him working at Trader Joe’s, which was one city over, and released it to try to embarrass him. He maintained taking care of his mom, son, and house while also working in NYC as an acting teacher. I applaud him for how he handled all of it.

[@jeweledthrone2850]

That intro tho 🔥 1:49 run that in 2025. That was nice of her tho. He probably felt he didn’t deserve it so he donated it. 9:50 maybe the pride came in after accepting it cause others started to reach out to him idk 😂 I just appreciate the fact everyone had good intentions in this situation 😂

[@QuishaDynae]

This don't even sound right. Especially that second guy.

[@Cryingcrys]

I feel everything you said J, but the comments are correct as well as his right to also be a blessing to others that didn’t have a job. Really, helping someone who has had fame still favors the celebrity ( both) versus the regular mom or pop.

He could have given a portion away and invested the rest. She gave that money to help him. I fully understand once you give the money you have no say what happens after that but he was wrong for that one.

Pride and ego has him stagnant, some people are comfortable in the struggle. Regarding Jay-z, if true, good for him. "Content creators" are extremely irresponsible on this platform. They make damaging claims about celebrities without concrete evidence, and KZbin allows it. I wouldn't be surprised if they're eventually included in lawsuits.

[@tafarimitchell5130]

They are irresponsible but it’s not jay’s job to reach out if he has an issue he need to file a lawsuit

@@tafarimitchell5130 He should proceed however he sees fit (in accordance with the law). I'll assume most of these content creators would appreciate a warning (cease and desist) over of a lawsuit.

I dont like that pink lady at all but it was nice of her to try to help with Geoffrey, and he just gave the money away On one hand, i can get it. You dont know this person, they randomly send you some coins to help, they may want something in return later on down the line. Also this is a elder man, so his generation grew up with different beleifs when it comes to money AT THE SAME TIME, you needed the help, someone takes time out of your day to help you financially, and you donated it? Nicki didnt have to do that, she did that out of the *little* kindness of her heart that she somewhat has

Yes his pride motivated his donation but 25,000 isnt a lot of money and it shows that most actors are starving artist, NYC is expensive,, and wealth inequality in US is ridiculous and the economy is not getting any better any time soon!

He already said why but y'all not listening or you're not accepting what he's saying and that's not fair. Sometimes all money is not good money- and he said at the time it wasn't a good look for him. Maybe he didn't want to look like a charity case in the blogs. Why do we paint everybody who's not famous or a celebrity as a poor/sad/struggling individual? There's people in the world with MUCH less. Also Nolan said he isn't working to keep busy but is that an assumption? Did he ever say that? Idk I can kinda understand why he did what he did and we don't know how Nicki would've framed this donation/ what opportunity she actually offered him

[@shanithomas9202]

​@@juicyparsonsGeoffrey said in this same video that he's still struggling today, so evidently he could've used the money then and can use it now, but his pride won't let him see it...or does he see it, hence why he tried to joke and say he should call the charity to try to get the money back.
