Popular content creator Elizabeth Amadou, widely known as Jarvis, is redefining her career trajectory as she appears to be moving beyond the shadow of her former boyfriend and fellow TikTok creator, Peller.
Once best known for her AI-themed skits and viral livestreams with Peller, Jarvis is now returning to the original creative style that earned her early recognition.
At the same time, she is branching into new projects that underscore both her creative independence and long-term aspirations.
During the week, Jarvis drew admiration from fans with a newly released video in which she portrayed an Artificial Intelligence-powered robot battling a villain.
The skit, shot at the National Stadium in Lagos and directed by Kenza Art Africa, was widely praised for its high production quality — including impressive graphics, special effects, makeup, and choreography.
She also recently featured in a skit alongside comedian Broda Shaggi, fashion designer Veekee James, and her husband Femi Atere, further establishing her presence outside her former collaborations.
For much of the past year, Jarvis’s online identity was closely linked to Peller’s. The duo’s relationship played out publicly through frequent collaborations, joint livestreams, and viral skits. However, tensions between them began surfacing online earlier this year.
In April, Jarvis called out Peller after photos surfaced of him with women in Ghana, accusing him of disloyalty. Peller responded by pointing to a filmed kiss involving Jarvis, escalating a public spat that culminated in a tearful livestream in June. During the stream, Jarvis accused Peller of betraying her trust by discussing private aspects of their relationship live. Shortly after, she confirmed the split during a conversation with fellow TikToker, Sandra Benede, stating:
“I’m officially single. I’m single, he’s single.”
The dramatic fallout drew reactions across social media, with many users urging Jarvis to refocus on her individuality. One user on X, @zonkedout, commented,
“Instead of packaging her content around him, she should build on what made people fall in love with her first — the NPC flair and character switches.”
Another, @Bimstarch, added,
“Let Jarvis be Jarvis. She doesn’t need to be in anyone’s shadow.”
Jarvis herself has acknowledged the toll the relationship took on her identity as a content creator. In a livestream, she admitted:
“In the beginning, it was difficult accepting his character. Now I have tolerated so many things that do not suit my brand. Who is losing value? Is it me or him?”
This moment of self-reflection appears to have marked a shift in her career strategy. Earlier this year, Jarvis embarked on a youth empowerment school tour in Freetown, Sierra Leone, where she held content creation masterclasses for young people.
She has also signalled interest in transitioning into the Nollywood film industry, revealing plans to create opportunities for aspiring creatives.
“My eyes are on it. I literally want to have a platform for other young people to showcase their talents because it wasn’t easy for me. I had to create my own platform myself,” she shared in a recent interview.
Despite personal health challenges, including a growing jaw tumour she disclosed in October last year, Jarvis remains focused on her career. She has spoken openly about the toll it has taken on her appearance and self-confidence but maintains that she may travel abroad for surgery.
Through it all, Jarvis continues to position her story as one of resilience, reinvention, and the power of self-belief, vowing to let her journey inspire others to embrace their originality and overcome adversity.
