Transgender women, Bobrisky and James Brown
I have dethroned Bobrisky — James Brown
I made James Brown — Bobrisky
Two transgender women and LGBT personalities, Okuneye Idris Olanrewaju, popularly known as Bobrisky, and James Chukwueze Obialor a.k.a James Brown, are currently in a battle of supremacy.
While the 22 years old dancer who was some time ago arrested alongside 46 others for being gay and spent a month at the Ikoyi Prisons claims he/she has overthrown Bobrisky to become the transgender queen, the 31 years old controversial internet personality who confirmed that her pronouns are “she” and “her” claims she made James Brown whatever she claims to be today.
Read below the verbal missiles they’ve been throwing at each other.
James Brown announces takeover of crown: “My ex-aunty, Bobrisky is no longer the queen. I am the new queen. I lead the whole thing now and Bobrisky follows. Bobrisky has handed over the crown to me, all I did was come to London. I have just started, I don’t like to brag but this year I have a lot in stock “
And Bobrisky reacts: “This James Brown, James Brown they are shouting today, I made James Brown. I know that very well. I posted James Brown on my page. When all these people were condemning him and calling him names when he newly came out, I was the person that invited him to my house, I gave him money. So it’s fine if he is who he is today. It's normal.”
And the social media war rages. Stay tuned for updates.
