On 14 March 2019, Miss Seyi Omooba whose talent is described as ‘jaw-droppingly good’, had been given a lead role as Celie in The Color Purple. After the cast was announced, on 15 March, Miss Omooba was tagged on Twitter by another West End performer, Aaron Lee Lambert. Lambert’s tweet included a screenshot of a Facebook post that Miss Omooba had posted in 2014.
