Okey Bakassi Comedian Thinks Being A Celebrity Is A Curse by danieljune(op): 3:15am On Aug 27, 2016
Popular comedian, Okey Bakassi, has revealed that being a celebrity in the current social media age is similar to a curse due to the lack of privacy.
According to him, being popular takes away all the privileges that comes being a regular person, as everyone always seems to be on their case.
He feels the advent of the social media has made celebrities susceptible to attacks and disrespectful comments from fans.
Bakassi was shared his thoughts in a recent Instagram post, Daily Post reports.
“It comes with a lot of curse, you lose your privacy, and until you lose your privacy, you won’t know how much it means to you."
“Celebrities don’t have a life that is theirs; everybody feels that entitlement to barge into your personal space."
“It’s really an expensive curse to bear honestly."
“When you are on this side of the boat, there are a lot of things you could just do everyday but you just make efforts to be normal."
“I’m sure if you ask the average celebrities, in these days of social media, it’s just too much, it’s as if when social media came, we lost respects and our values."
Social media, though lauded for bridging the gap that one existed between celebrities and their fans, has in recent times become an avenue for invasion of privacy.
Many of these famous personalities have become weary of this, making them feel the need to be more discreet about their private lives.

They should tell us something else, this issue of been a celebrity is a curse is getting LAME already... I guess its only Nigerians that are celebs undecided Mtcheww... it's not like most of them respects themselves, so how will your privacy be valued? shocked

You come online to post every pics u snapped, discuss your relationship, fight dirty with every Tom, dickk and Harry and even exchange words with fans. Oh yea! They are humans too which is the price they have to pay for been a celeb...

Respect the internet and see your privacy been respected too... Nigerian celebrities are not the only celebs on the social media, they should spare me these stories Abeg...


My OPINION though cheesy
