The matter of popular catfish Twitter accounts has been topical this week. This is as one of the most controversial and popular Twitter accounts which is known for using a catfish profile picture has come under fire. The account is that of Twitter troll Chris Excel, who has been using the image of content creator and aspiring model Bianca Coster.
In what is matter best left alone if your name is not in it, Heavy K opted to add his two cents as he took to Twitter to tweet what was read as support for Chris Excel and Nota Baloyi, despite their very misogynistic and hateful posts.
They called me a deadbeat father while I was very active in my kids life & @ChrisExcel102 , @lavidaNOTA went out of their way to defend me with everything they have , because as men on this app once a woman says something about you it’s true without any second doubts!
But it did not take long for his comments section to be filled with comments expressing their disappointment with Heavy K’s stance which seemed to disregard Bianca’s call for help to get Chris Excel to stop using her image as his profile picture.
Yeah stand with men until a man he attacks your sister or insults your mother or is Thabo Bester etc etc🤣🤣🤣
Safe to say, in seeing this, Heavy K seemed to have noticed that his initial tweet might have long-reaching implications for his own career. This is as he might be misconstrued to seem that he is in support of men who have repeatedly been misogynistic and blatantly women-hating on social media.
As such, he started to backtrack from the initial tweet. First, by creating a thread with the first tweet. The rest of the thread added:
“Some of y’all have fathers, brothers, sisters, friends who are killers, rapists, robbers, abusers, drug addicts, fraudsters but still love them right and protect them when it’s necessary? Before judging me for acknowledging the positive side of things from these “vile human beings.”"
But this failed to land how Heavy K might have intended it. As such, he all but folded completely from his initial tweet. This is as his next tweet was directed at Chris Excel and echoed the sentiments shared by most of social media that is not in support of Chris Excel using someone’s image without their permission, which was to ask him to take it down…
Yo @ChrisExcel102 can you please remove the profile picture of Bianca as the tweeps request mfowethu especially after learning she’s not okay with it.🙏🏽
