My Popularity Has Side Effects - Gyakie

Gyakie has revealed the downsides of her rise to fame.

According to her, she can no longer do the things she used to do freely when she was not as popular.

For example, her favourite woman who sells gari and beans popularly known as ‘gob3’ in her vicinity but due to her celebrity status, she can no longer visit the place.

“There is this woman in my neighbourhood who sells fried plantain and beans and it is one food that I really like apart from fufu but these days I can no longer go there to buy,” she revealed.

“Because if I go there to buy and I meet about 50 people there I would wait till they all finish buying before it gets to my turn but now I can’t go again,” she told the host.

"Besides I’m the type that if we order for food I like to see the food and choose my choice but now I can’t do that. Nowadays, when you’re walking in town you have to check yourself because someone can put a camera on you unknowingly.

“When you’re outside you have to be conscious about everything that you are doing. I would say that celebrity status is a bit tough because I used to a normal person,” she explained.

“But right now everyone wants to see what’s going in your life. I mean I wouldn’t say it’s all negative but there’s also a positive side but sometimes it’s a bit tough,”

She said this while speaking in an exclusive interview with Amansan Krakye on Kastle FM.
