Bobrisky Shares Alleged DM Receipts, Claps Back at Fan Over Body-Shaming Lagos, Nigeria – June 20, 2025 Comment and Deleted Video
Popular Nigerian socialite and self-acclaimed “Mummy of Lagos,” Idris Okuneye, widely known as Bobrisky, is once again at the center of online drama. The controversial internet personality has fired back at a fan who allegedly questioned his physical appearance and criticized a recent now-deleted video he posted on his Instagram account.
In a fiery clapback posted across his social media platforms late Thursday evening, Bobrisky shared what he claims to be direct message (DM) receipts from the fan in question—an attempt to expose what he describes as “hypocrisy and hidden admiration masked as criticism.”
The altercation began earlier in the week when Bobrisky posted a short, sensual video showcasing his latest cosmetic enhancements and fashion ensemble. However, the video—now taken down—reportedly drew mixed reactions from followers. While his loyal fan base applauded his boldness and confidence, others, including the user in question, allegedly took to his DMs and comments section to ridicule his appearance, making unflattering remarks about his body and accusing him of editing the footage.
In response, Bobrisky went live on Instagram and later posted screenshots of a private conversation he claimed was from the same fan who had publicly mocked him. The screenshots showed the fan allegedly complimenting his appearance and requesting attention—messages that Bobrisky used to support his claims of “envy disguised as hate.”
“Y’all need to stop pretending you don’t love me,” Bobrisky wrote in a caption accompanying the screenshots. “You come to my DM to beg and praise me, but come to the comment section to insult me. I’m not your mate, I’m your role model. Stay mad.”
The post quickly went viral, racking up thousands of likes, shares, and comments within hours. Reactions on social media were predictably divided. While many fans backed Bobrisky, praising him for standing his ground and exposing what they called “fake trolls,” others accused him of attention-seeking and questioned the authenticity of the shared receipts.
“Whether you love Bobrisky or not, he knows how to stay trending,” one Twitter user remarked. “The receipts may be real or fake, but this drama is calculated. He’s marketing himself.”
Another critic wrote, “This is classic deflection. If people are giving you feedback, even if it’s rude, learn to handle it with grace. Not everything deserves a clapback.”
This latest incident is not the first time Bobrisky has used his platform to address criticism head-on. From feuds with fellow celebrities to confrontations with fans and followers, Bobrisky has built a reputation for being unapologetically bold, unfiltered, and quick to defend his persona—especially when it comes to his evolving appearance and lifestyle.
In recent months, the social media influencer has been increasingly open about undergoing various cosmetic procedures to “enhance” his look. He has often shared details of his skincare routines, body sculpting sessions, and fashion choices, all of which have fueled both admiration and scrutiny.
While Bobrisky continues to court controversy, his influence remains undeniable. With over four million followers on Instagram alone and a massive presence across other platforms, his ability to stir conversation and command public attention is a testament to his unique grip on Nigeria’s celebrity and influencer culture.
For now, Bobrisky appears unfazed by the backlash. “Delete the video? Yes. But never delete the confidence,” he wrote in another post. “I’m Bobrisky, and I’ll always trend—good or bad.”
As the dust settles from this latest online spat, one thing remains clear: love him or hate him, Bobrisky knows how to keep the internet talking.
