A recent surge in fame for a Nigerian content creator known as “Cute Guy” has brought unexpected challenges.
Following his participation in the “Of Course” challenge and subsequent recognition as one of Nigeria’s most handsome men, he is now experiencing the downsides of public attention.
Through social media posts, Cute Guy has expressed his discomfort with being filmed without his consent in public spaces. He recounted instances on public transportation and at a restaurant where fans recorded him, with one encounter even leading to disparaging remarks about his perceived wealth.
This newfound attention seems to have limited his ability to enjoy everyday activities without unwanted intrusion. He has publicly requested that fans refrain from filming him and expressed a desire for a return to life before his rise to online fame.
