Crossdresser, James Brown Obialor, popularly known as “Princess of Africa”  has taken to Tiktok to narrate how he suffered before fame and popularity.

James Brown, who is Igbo indigene but very fluent in the Yoruba Language, in a video on his Tikok page, @wf-jamesbrown, said he stayed in Ikoyi Prison for one month where he suffered and even ate faeces so he could attain fame.

The 22-year old lambasted people who claimed to have assisted him in one way to the other to rise to fame. He disclosed that his journey is a product of determination and self-struggle.

He said; “People don’t know this about me. They believe that I just woke up one day and went viral, My dear do you know I went to Ikoyi Prison to become popular”

Recall that, Brown and 46 others were arrested by police operatives during a raid on Kelly Ann Hotel/ Event Centre in Egbeda, Lagos in August 2018.

They were dragged before a court in the state for alleged public display of affection with members of same-sex and remanded at the Ikoyi Correctional facility.

The court, however, dismissed the case last year, citing “lack of diligent prosecution.”

Reflecting on the incident, the cross-dresser wondered why anyone would claim responsibility for his popularity despite what he went through in prison.
