Celebrities and Social media

social media was once intended to bridge the great divide between celebrities and fans. Platforms like facebook, Instagram and Twitter have taken on a life of their own with the average interacting with. Unfortunately the social outlets that allow stars like Tonto Dike, Kcee, Uche Jombo, wizkid etc to get close and personal with their adoring fans, have caused global embarrassment, or worse for some stars.

instantly releasing their opinions and thoughts for all to see, many celebs skip forethought when hitting the share button. this was wreaked havoc on their lives and images, leading to social media wars, angry fans and in some cases legal repercussions.

singer like wizkid has become notorious for sparking outrage across the landscape of twitter and instagram. Lately he insulted a fan For correcting his English on a photo on his Instagram page, Wizkid told a fan that 'broke people always think they have an opinion'. His fans took offense over his comments and called him out on Twitter. some celebrities bumped their account into private mode or slamming social media. one celebrity stated "social media takes away the essence of why we are even special or icon. so with that i'm detaching myself from that world"

Acress Halimat Abukar also found hersef in a hot water this past month, when one of  the talented thespian twitter followers got angry with her after she was begged for a follow back. When the award winning actress declined, the fan tweeted at her, "why forming for me nah? Follow me back, you don't want to. Don't you know that I am your sister?

"Who you be self? You fine reach Tonto, or my queen, Mercy Johnson? You this shortie, you expired maggot."...... Continue to see the actress reply and subsequent tweets from both of them..

And actress fired back, "I am nothing, but you followed me. Go f*ck yourself."

The fan responded, "I followed you because I want to be seeing your mess up. You this godiga (gold digger), smelling 'ascrimate'. Go f*ck yourself, you this public toilet."

Halima continued, "and hey expired? You mean your pus*y? Bit*h, I am not 30 yet. So, hey, hop on a d*ck and do a full split."

One of her fans told her that she should have remained silent on the issue. Another fan of hers, "Sweetie, it is very unhealthy for a status chic of your type to lose her cool publicly"

Tonto Dikeh  has also received her fair share of backlash throughout Twitter channels after sharing aspects of her personal life. The Poko Singer has become the subject of thousands of headlines, with attacking her collegues and fans with abusive words, she recently tweets calling actress "mercy johnson" a fool and bastard. she have converted her twitter handle to an abusive tool for fans and fellow colleagues. Totonto has now become more notorious for unapologetically waging wars on twitter than for her acting/singing talents.

An american born singer, Rihanna has also created some serius buzz among Twitter follwers after posting pictures of marijuana bud she believed resembled a skull. in one instance a fan had compared her to Whitney Houston on Instagram following one of the 24year old's infamous photos of her smoking a joint. Rihana shot back, insulting the fan before deleting the interaction on her account. "Yeah cuz Whitnet overdosed on a joint!!! Fuck outta here you weak bitch!!"

Ruggedman and  Goldie before her demise also had a twitter war with a fan by twitter name "akegag" after he took to twitter with abusive statement  saying  “Ruggedman deserves to die after making us endure all the wacky s**t he makes us hear, It would be cool if he was dead though, wack rapper.”  In a reply, Ruggedman tweeted, “please twifam, join me as I mourn the death of akegag,

In a support of to colleague in the music industry, Goldie picked on akegag when she tweeted, “you are telling celebs that they should die, it is uncalled for. The other day, you said I wasn’t worth it, I ignored you.” Ruggedman tweeted these curses on akegag, “Father Lord God, for akegag and anyone like him, let his prosperity be cut off; and in the generation following, let their names be blotted out and cut off the memory of them from the earth. Let his children continually be vagabonds, and beg; let them seek bread in desolate places. Let his prayers become sin. In Jesus name I have prayed. AMEN.”

While Ruggedman was doing the curses, the following was going on between Goldie and akegag.

Akegag: “When will Goldie change her weave, it is nasty now, maybe it is Brazilian.

Goldie: “You will be nothing but a fake wack bas***d who thrives on twitter famzing and will be forgotten as soon as a new social network comes up.”

Akegag: “Shut up hot kini. Goldie an ugly whore spotting fake weave-on! National cake, f**k anywhere belle face

Goldie: “No wonder you are confused, your uncle actually paid to f**k your mother. So sad you don’t even know who your daddy is. Meaning your mother was a never do well whore who f**ked whatever was paid to her to, including rodents and pigs.

Akegag: I bet you slept with all the producers and they did you till all your hair fell off, hence, the weave on. Goldie is actually her stripper name and Ruggedman will remain rugged and wretched. Goldie sang you don’t need to pay to touch her body. I guess she’s a free bi**h with a bald hair-do.

Goldie: I am having fun at your expense; I might walk around bald for all that I care, I will still be Goldie, and you? I have nothing more to say to you, you can kiss my fake blonde weave-on, lol and go RIPieces as Ruggedman has already said. Cheers.

some celebrities have sworn off the social media altogether. Actress Oge Okoye , has slammed the social platforms. "i'm sick of it. Exhausted. and it makes me numb and that's dangerous. she give up the management to her publicist following a tweet involing an issue. sharing her opinions. Oge was attacked by her own fans and others which almost tarnish her image in the public eye. her publicit fire back 'stop bullying Oge okoye you bullied her and made her hypertensive. do u want to send her to where u sent Goldie to?"

 People are just under a barrage. there's no time to think and people are'not making their own opinions. and it makes intimacy almost impossible. And i find that worrisome, really worrisome. whats going to happen in time, with a generation of people who have that kind of ADD?.
