Comedian Josh Alfred, widely known as Josh2Funny, has shared why he stopped cross-dressing for his skits.
The video producer explained that while portraying the female character “Mama Felicia,” he faced unwelcome advances from male fans.
Josh discussed this during an appearance on The Honest Bunch podcast, stating that these encounters prompted him to abandon the Mama Felicia persona and adopt the character “Brother Zacchaeus” instead.
The content creator mentioned that this change spared him further embarrassment, as some men had even obtained his phone number and were pursuing him on WhatsApp.
“You see, the difference between me and some other people who do female characters is that mine was pure comedy. Anyone who liked me didn’t really have sense and didn’t understand because I made sure it was stupid.
“Mama Felicia is a stupid character, it was purely stupid. I had a lot of advances. There was one guy who came to my WhatsApp and said he really liked me. I went straight to him and said, ‘Bro, I’m going to pray, and you’re going to be blind in two weeks.’ The guy started begging me. Why would you see me and like me?
“This is part of why I left the character. I turned Mama Felicia into Brother Zacchaeus. Instead of wearing female clothes, I had to drop it and start wearing male clothes, using the same accent. It was becoming embarrassing for me because I just wanted to make people laugh.”
