Kenyan TikTok sensation, Kelvin Kinuthia, ignited a storm of online discussions by sharing a photo of himself in an adorable dress, capturing the curiosity and interest of his fans. While Kinuthia has gained popularity for his cross-dressing videos on social media, a recent revelation about his birth year, disclosed through the display of his ID, intensified the online chatter.
In a surprising twist, Kinuthia revealed that he was born in 2001, challenging assumptions about his age. Addressing speculation surrounding his age and responding to body-shaming comments, Kinuthia expressed the need to set the record straight.
In an interview with Mungai Eve, he shared, "I was just posting to clarify because I have been bullied. People say I do not look my age. People body shame me because I am big-bodied; they assume that my body should be proportional to my age."
The online buzz escalated to the point where skeptics questioned the authenticity of Kinuthia's ID, alleging that it was fake. In response, he highlighted the challenges he faced, stating, "I was even told that I had taken a fake ID and posted it, and I was asked to bring my birth certificate. If someone is not contented, then there is nothing I can do about it."
Significantly, Kinuthia has been open about his mother's unwavering support, often referring to her as his number one fan. In a prior interview, he shared that his mother not only cheers him on in his cross-dressing endeavors but also actively contributes by buying clothes for his different female personas, including the beloved 'Aunty wa Harrier.'
The online responses to Kinuthia's recent adventure were immediate, with fans expressing admiration and playfully seeking information on where to acquire similar dresses.
The positive feedback from followers reflected a varied array of sentiments, ranging from compliments to requests for fashion advice.
Within the comments section, Jackie Wangui commended Kinuthia and asked for details on where to buy his dresses. Ngendo Princes playfully sought Kinuthia's confidence, imagining it paired with a short dress, and Jerry Muthoni humorously suggested his potential success in marketing maternity dresses with ease.
