African-Britons who are making it big in the entertainment industry

Tolulope Ogunmefun

Tolulope Ogunmefun is known all over the world by his online social media name “Don’t Jealous Me”. He launched his YouTube channel in 2008 and it has been viewed over 41 million times. He has been entertaining fans, both young and old, with hilarious comedy sketches and vlogs. However, the YouTube popularity became challenging on a personal level as he became known as simply being Don’t Jealous Me when in fact he had so much more to offer. He tried to get into acting but was getting turned down constantly audition after audition which led to him having to take time out to find himself. He stopped posting as regularly on Youtube and really decided to work on his real dream of acting. The hustle finally paid off and led to him getting a significant role in popular Sky One Sitcom Sick Note and a BBC 3 series called Man Like Mobeen. Tolulope is also a part-time writer. Be sure to grab his children’s book “The Frog and his Dancing Shoes” for your kids!
