Tubaba is fresh oh! I saw him at close range when he came to UNIBEN sport complex back then in school. We were engaged by Malta Guinness as Ushers in the backroom of the invited Artistes. Even the late Sound Sultan was looking fresh!

I see both online and offline how people freak out at the sight of a celebrity. Some even go as far as rushing or grabbing them. I have never been to any show,let alone wanting to go up stage to grab a celebrity. I saw how a young man was kicked by Burna Boy and I felt really disgusted because such nonsense can never happen to me.
Early last year, I was on the 6th floor at BUA Group headquarters in Victoria Island where I saw Tekno and Davido sitting down at the reception having a chat, I just greeted them and sat down. I also saw how every other person on that floor was minding their business and don't really give a damn about their presence.
When I told a cousin how I feel weird on how people go crazy at the sight of these celebrities, he said it's not normal but I strongly disagree with him. I even told him how some staff at BUA Group didn't give a damn about Davido"s presence, he insisted that they are not also normal.
Do you guys here share my views, or do you think it's not normal?

You even greet

Me , I no go greet
Seen Ramsey Noah before and oh ! What should I do? Because he is a celebrity
Abegi!
I no Dey hail any celebrity make dem go siddon

I've seen a couple of celebrities at the airport a lot of times and didn't give a flying F about them. You are a normal human being

We should add athletes too. Once I started paying my bills, I don't stress myself with a footballer that is earning his salary

If only there are more people like us in this world, no celebrity will make a penny.

I have worked in some banks and I see these celebrities come in from time to time to negotiate deals,,,, I just look up from my desk, smile or greet them verbally face my work...nobody is hailing them, nobody is screaming every one just maintain a professional mien.

Humans usually gravitate towards popular people. Nothing new there

People that exhibit this kind of characters are mostly girls, they can even sell there father's house if a celebrity is standing right in front of them, very stupid character, forgetting that those people are human being like them.... One stupid girl who posted a video of how davido followed her and she was crying like an infant, mehn so embarrassing, so had it been he was in her house in person, Na die she for die.....


Celebrities are not God's they are humans like you and I....

We are definitely in the same WhatsApp group...!

I have met a lot of celebrities in person, and felt absolutely no excitement or need to reach out to them... Even when they said hi to me, I replied like I would to any other individual.

Walahi you aren’t alone bro!

I have actually met some of these guys in clubs and in very close proximity and I did not even blink.
I actually have some pictures with some of these celebrities… it wasn’t me grabbing a camera and hiding in their front to take by force, the pictures were properly taking with composure..

Mine is not even borne out of respecting myself. I don't just feel it's worth it!

it's too much pride. Emphasis on "too much". I don't freak out also, but there are some exception.

Some of us have even worked with a lot of them like Aisha and Adiza Gabon in Kano
Jaywon and Caroline Danjuma in Lagos during a talent hunt which I supervised .
Just did my job and left .I no dey form familiarity .

I can only do this for a freedom fighter!

You are normal and infact exceptionally normal. I am like you too......

You even tried by recognizing them when you saw them at BUA HQ.

I wouldn't recognize any of them if i ran into them, let alone freak at their sight.

That's for yeye, rudderless kids

I remembered the day a very popular Yoruba actor came to the bank where I once work to cash a cheque given to him then, he was expecting a star reception from me and my colleagues, I didn't even flitc or looked at him twice. I attended to him like I do to all customers!
Again, after leaving the banking sector, I was a manager in a hotel, he came one particular day to lodge and I attended to normally but dude was expecting me to bend the rules because he is an actor and I disappointed him by sticking to the rule of the house.
They are just human like you and I.

It is called hero worshipping.

You're not alone.
I also feel this way too.

I have 3 celebrities
Vladimir Putin
Donald Trump
Uche montana
Omoh that Uche girl make me start watch Naija movies

Anyone who's star struck isn't normal...

Yes I agree with you.

I'm a celebrity and I really don't like people disturbing my peace.

Iceberg3, AfonjaConehead, Justiceleague1 take note.

I no send any body papa

Come to Dodan Barracks in those days and see the movers and shakers of Nigeria and people just go about their normal daily hustles.

tanigororo:
I won't be jumping upadan because of their song but because of their personality.

The only artiste/celebrity I have respect for is Davido, because I heard he is a friendly fellow.

The only foreign celebrity I have crush on is Akon because of some details I know about him.

YOU HEARED?...ALL NA PR!

You my brother, just like my Royal Self are among the normal and sane...

Others who go crazy over these yeyebrities are the abnormal and crazy eediots who celebrate mediocrity.

No let anyone deceive you with their stoopidity...

Samantha125:
You just haven't met your favourite celebrity yet, the one who has that effect on you.

I've also come across some celebrities and politicians before, but didn't go crazy... People would be fighting to take pictures while I'd just stand aside and watch.

But I nearly fainted because of one celebrity...🤦🤦🤦... I didn't want to go crazy, I wanted to contain myself, but my entire body was taken over by excitement.

yen yen yen

Human being like me go make me freak out at the sight of them? God forbid! The celebrities I love the most are Tracy chapman, dolly parton and bob Dylan. I have seen one live and didn't freak out...let alone our local celebs who are being celebrated for their mediocre works of art

Only people with low level of self esteem,low self perception,low self carriage would do such and get insulted by these arrogant animals calling themselves "Celebrities"
What arrant nonsense !

The day Kanu Nwankwo came to Imo Internal Revenue Service at Okigwe Road, na so all of them dey famz the guy.
I was just in the Boardroom working, I was like "ko kan aye"

You're being stoic and it's a good thing, before the fame and all that, they are human first.

I don't worship human being no matter who you are, this has nothing to do with support
