- Kiekie, a renowned content creator and Nollywood actress, has disclosed the methods by which she gained public recognition.
- Kiekie recently acknowledged her late-blooming status, stating that it took her a considerable amount of time to achieve fame.
Popular skit maker and Nollywood actress Kiekie has revealed the long and determined journey it took for her to achieve fame in the entertainment industry.
Speaking on the TTM Show hosted by Tobi Makinde, Kiekie described herself as a “late bloomer,” explaining that she began creating content as far back as 2013 but only gained significant public attention in 2020 — seven years later.
She noted that despite the lack of early recognition, her love for content creation kept her going. Kiekie said she consistently funded her creative work through other jobs, including her career in fashion styling.
“The story is unique because I sometimes call myself a late bloomer. Because it literally took seven years to gain the spotlight.
I started creating content in 2013 but didn’t gain the spotlight till 2020. It was seven years of me constantly doing what I love, funding what I love with the other jobs I was doing.
Some of those who had known me before I became popular as a content creator will know that I used to be a stylist. I was once Simi’s stylist.
My first viral content was the Fashion Shock Show that started in 2018,” she said.
Now known for her energy and comedic presence online, the actress emphasized that her current success is built on years of perseverance and consistency.
“The moment I hit the spotlight, it just continued like that,” she added.
