FORMER TALENTED KIDZ WINNER TUTULAPATO SPOTTED SELLING COCONUTS
Viral video shows 2013 reality show champion denying identity during heated exchange; sparks debate about child star transitions.
A viral video has revealed the dramatic transformation of Tutulapato, winner of TV3’s Talented Kidz competition in 2013, now allegedly working as a coconut seller on the streets of Ghana.
The footage, shared by Ghanaian YouTuber De God Son TV, shows a heated confrontation between the former child rap sensation and individuals filming him at his roadside coconut stand. Now grown up, Tutulapato appeared visibly agitated and denied being the former reality show champion while attempting to stop the recording.
The video has sparked widespread discussion on social media about the challenges faced by child stars in maintaining their careers and transitioning to adulthood. Many viewers expressed concern about what might have led the once-promising talent to his current situation, despite his early fame and recognition.
Alexis De God Son, who shared the video on his YouTube channel, reflected on Tutulapato’s journey, questioning how the winner of a major talent competition could end up selling coconuts on the street just over a decade after his victory.
The incident has reignited conversations about the need for better support systems for child stars in Ghana’s entertainment industry, with many calling for structured programs to help young talents navigate adulthood and sustain their careers beyond initial fame.
Tutulapato won the hearts of Ghanaians in 2013 with his impressive rap skills on the popular TV3 talent show, but like many child stars, appears to have struggled to maintain momentum in his career as he transitioned into adulthood.
