A Nigerian Twitter user by the name ‘Imoteda’, just subscribed for premium trolling yesterday, after making a bold claim about her Idolo Beyonce, claiming that American musician Beyonce appeals to more people globally than the greatest of all time footballer Cristiano Ronaldo.
The fans are seething that the Twitter user sought to disrespect and belittle the popularity of Cristiano Ronaldo by comparing Beyonce to him.
Imoteda found it ‘weird’ that people assume footballers are very popular and that not a single player on the planet can be compared to Beyonce in terms of popularity.
Imoteda’s post reads “So many people think football players are crazy popular. It’s so weird. Like how can you say a football player is more popular than Beyonce? Then name two football players that even I wouldn’t recognize.”
The reactions have been outright condemnation of her post as many believe that not only Ronaldo but a host of football stars are more popular than the globally-acclaimed RnB star.
Some have referenced instances where Ronaldo garnered huge supporters online to back their claim that he is the more popular figure of the two.
Imoteda Tweeted:
According to her via her tweet: “So many people think football players are crazy popular. It’s so weird. Like how can you say a football player is more popular than Beyonce? Then name two football players than even I wouldn’t recognize. Lol”
Multi-Award winning Grammy artiste Beyonce is no doubt a music icon and one of the most successful artistes of her generation.
Here are some reactions from the football fans:
