"Don't put a picture when you used to be hot" - Charles Barkley hilariously drops wisdom on do's & don'ts of dating app

NBA legend Charles Barkley loves to share his opinion on certain topics that most people can relate to and enjoy. This has become a great source of entertainment for the fans as he doesn't hold back in sharing his thoughts.

Barkley and Ernie Johnson host a podcast called "The Steam Room." In one of their segments, a fan called in to ask about a topic that most people from the former NBA star's generation can't relate to. The fan asked Chuck and Johnson about the worst thing that a person could put in their bio on dating apps.

Barkley shared his opinion about dating apps first before answering the fan's question.

"First of all, these dating apps. None of these people look like they're supposed to look," Barkley said. "You can't show a picture when you were hot in high school or college. The picture has to be within a three-month window.

"Don't put a picture when you used to be hot and you're not anymore. Stop putting boring stuff on there... You can come up with something more exciting."

In the end, the former Phoenix Suns star advised the caller. Barkley said that people shouldn't use boring bios on dating apps. According to the Hall of Famer, putting one's basic interest wouldn't be enticing to others.
