Bobrisky has in a short time,
become one of the most talked-about characters on social media and everyone
just loves to hate him. Google's Communications and Public Affairs Manager, Anglophone West
Africa, Taiwo Kola-Ogunlade, said Bobrisky was most searched individual
from October 26 to November 2016.
The Nigerian internet
celebrity and entrepreneur became popular with the use of Snapchat, a
social media application, when he is not twerking on Snapchat; he is marketing
his skin-bleaching cream or talking about his faceless ‘bae’.
Each Snap of his gets thousands
of viewers, a feat very few celebrities in the country can boast of, Instagram
posts that have anything to do with his name get loads of views and comments,
same as Twitter and every other social media platform.
There’s no single post the
African male Barbie makes without receiving a load of hate comments.
Though Bobrisky
who claims he is prettier than 70% of Nigerian women is undaunted and always at
war with each and every one of them.
The Nigerian cross- dresser is
having a tough time keeping off people who detest his way of life from his
social media page. As most times, unfiltered pictures of him keep flooding the
internet, although he always insists that those unfiltered pictures of him are
edited by "haterrs"
Few months ago, after unfiltered
pictures of Nigerian male Barbie and self acclaimed “queen of Snapchat”,
Bobrisky went viral, she made the decision to go premium on the app. He
announced that he will start charging his followers N10,000 monthly to view his
snaps from August 15, 2017.
Bobrisky says he’s charging that amount because he has a few people in his employ that he has to pay. According to him, “Guys be ready my snapchat is going on premium account by august 15th. I’m the queen of snapchat in Nigeria 670,000 views. If you wanna enjoy my snap 24hrs u need to pay 10k monthly.
“I wanna upgrade my snap, I will show you guys life nakedness of Bobrisky in the bathroom .daily makeup,videos , dancing etc be prepared,have tried a year mow have been giving you all free show. Thanks
” you guys know that my snapchat is the best.Always lit no dulling . Always entertai ing you all. Maybe if i go on premium there will be less hatrr on . Y snap.
“The only reason why i am charging auch money is because i am employing some people to work for me so you guys can always see my fill out fit whenever i go out . See people meet etc”
It seems the bleaching cream
expert who claimed that he makes $800 dollars daily from sales of his cream is
not joking as he has started charging his fans money to view his premium
snapchat page.
The accountancy graduate from
University of Lagos as part of the activities lined up to celebrate his 25th
birthday on Tuesday, August 22 2017 went premium. He took to his old page to
share screenshots of people crediting his account this morning with cash for
access into his private snapchat page.
He claims that over 300 people
have in 8 hours made payment to his new premium account and he careless if he
has only 1k view out of his usual 650k views.
As at the time of writing this, Self
acclaimed king of Snapchat, Bobrisky has deleted his old account.
The Nigerian cross dresser has
not only decided to make money from his snap app but also signed his first
endorsement deal as a hair ambassador.
He also made his debut into
Nollywood, as he was photographed on set of a yoruba movie alongside Toyin
Afolayan aka Lola Idije and Tayo Sobola.
Whether we like it or not,
Bobrisky is a name we will be seeing for a very long to come so we might as
well get used to it. It does not matter whether you love or hate him. He
will continue to live his life the way he wants to regardless of the
circumstances. He managed to monetise his infamy, which is why he will prosper
even if the majority of people hate his guts.
We applaud his entrepreneurial
skills and hope that he continues to do his thing to entertain the masses.
