Popular Nigerian crossdresser and social media personality, Bobrisky, has once again stirred controversy online, this time after revealing his refusal to eat certain foods because of his religious beliefs.
In a trending video making the rounds on social media, Bobrisky was seen seated at a restaurant where he politely told the waiter not to serve him pork or mushrooms. “I don’t want bacon (pork) or mushrooms, because I’m Muslim. I don’t eat it,” he said, before requesting for fish instead.
The video has since gone viral, attracting a wave of mixed reactions from fans and critics alike. While some social media users commended him for boldly identifying with his faith, others questioned his commitment to Islam, pointing to his flamboyant lifestyle, gender expression, and frequent controversies that often contradict conservative religious teachings.
This revelation has opened up a wider debate on social media about religion, personal identity, and freedom of choice. Many Nigerians expressed shock, as Bobrisky has rarely spoken publicly about his faith in the past.
Some argued that being a Muslim does not stop him from practicing his lifestyle choices, while others insisted that faith and lifestyle must align for one’s religious convictions to be taken seriously.
One X (formerly Twitter) user commented, “You can’t pick and choose religion only when it favors you. If you claim Islam, then you have to embrace all that comes with it.” Another wrote, “Religion is a personal journey. Bobrisky has the right to follow his faith in the way he understands it.”
This is not the first time Bobrisky has triggered debates about identity and religion. Over the years, his bold fashion statements, social media presence, and self-expression have consistently kept him in the public eye.
Whether it is his luxury lifestyle, public spats with celebrities, or controversial statements, Bobrisky has mastered the art of remaining relevant through conversations that challenge societal norms.
Critics believe the recent pork rejection was just another move to spark attention, while supporters argue that it shows a softer, more spiritual side of the internet sensation. The controversy also highlights how celebrity figures in Nigeria often walk a fine line between personal beliefs and public scrutiny.
Despite the backlash, Bobrisky appeared unfazed, with his name trending across multiple platforms. For someone who has built a career on being unapologetically bold, the current debate only adds to his long list of headlines.
As reactions continue to pour in, one thing is clear: Bobrisky knows how to spark conversations that cut across entertainment, religion, and cultural identity. Whether the focus is on his lifestyle, his faith, or his bold statements, Nigerians remain divided but equally intrigued.
