Bukunmi Adeaga-Ilori, better known as KieKie, a popular comedian and influencer, discusses how she began as a fashion critic before transitioning into skit-making.
The socialite stated that she used to mix comedy and fashion criticism, which sparked the interest of industry professionals and resulted in an invitation to start creating skits.
Kikie made this known while speaking as a panelist at one of the Entertainment Week Lagos sessions.
Despite beginning small, Kiekie said she now has a YouTube page and creates her own material.
She said:
“I infused the comic side into my content, and that was what gave birth to my fashion shock show. It was a bit of critiquing fashion, but infusing comedy into it. That was one of the things that made the show grow at the time.
“It was a case of wanting to show more and having the right people around me to encourage me to do that. That is why I always tell people that it is very important to surround oneself with the right set of people that will push the right elements out of one; and not with the most irrelevant things.
“People started seeing the comic side in my fashion content, and they began pulling me into skits, saying, ‘This girl is hilarious; come and feature in skits’. One skit turned into five, then 10, till we got to this point. Before I knew what was happening, I had started producing my own content, and opened a YouTube channel.”
