The social media sphere was yesterday set abuzz as controversial personality Shadaya Knight achieved a milestone in his career when his role model, former kickboxing world champion Andrew Tate, publicly endorsed him.
This endorsement has ignited discussions and raised questions about Knight’s aspirations, as he now appears to have influential figures like Elon Musk, Donald Trump, and Kanye West on his radar.
The catalyst for this newfound recognition was Shadaya’s tweet in which he criticized actress Lupita Nyong’o for ending her relationship due to her partner’s infidelity.
The tweet swiftly attracted the attention of Andrew Tate, who shared his endorsement with his substantial online following, tweeting, “Smart and true.”
The tweet in question stated, “Lupita Nyong’o in her 40s, walking away from her relationship because her man cheated is peak female delusion. Of course, the sisterhood will support such stupidity with the rhetoric ‘you deserve better queen’ as if there’s any high-value man out there waiting to pick up a 40-year-old woman.”
Beyond questioning Nyong’o’s decision, the tweet delved into the perception that many women today choose to exit relationships rather than engage in resolution, believing that a better opportunity awaits them elsewhere.
The tweet also drew a parallel between Nyong’o and Enhle Mbali, the estranged wife of South African DJ Black Coffee, who left her marriage after her husband’s infidelity. It implied that women like Mbali, who seek a more favourable situation, often find themselves in compromising positions, such as becoming involved with married men.
Reacting to the endorsement from his role model, Shadaya Knight expressed his gratitude, saying, “When your role model recognizes your existence, beyond humbled.”
Looking ahead, Shadaya Knight’s profile suggests that he has his sights set on even greater recognition, listing influential figures like Elon Musk, Donald Trump, and Kanye West as his role models.
