Elsa Majimbo Breaks Down in Tears in Emotional Video, Sparks Concern Over Her Well-being

Popular comedian and internet sensation Elsa Majimbo has sparked widespread concern over her well-being after an emotional meltdown on social media which saw her break down in tears, leaving fans and followers worried about what she could be going through.

The video, which has since gone viral, shows a visibly emotional Majimbo struggling to hold back tears before letting them flow freely as she covers her face.

Lifting the lid on her life beyond the glamour and fame on social media, the U.S.-based influencer and content creator unpacked her experience online, stating that she has been on the receiving end of social media bullying that has overwhelmed her.

“I feel like there is such a lack of empathy when it comes to me on the internet. I don’t where the bullying comes from because a lot of people don’t know me so they cant hate hate me. I don’t know where the bullying comes from,” she stated.

Majimbo explained that she goes out of her way not to disturb others, but still ends up being bullied on social media.

“I spend a lot of time alone and I am not a very big party person Even when I go for red carpet, I go for things I believe in and charity events. I spend a lot of time alone and I don’t disturb anyone. I gets really overwhelming sometimes because I feel like I go out of my way not to disturb anyone.

According to her, the bullying comes in different shapes and forms ranging from her dressing to her appearance

“It feels like the most basic things like I would put on an outfit and people would start calling me a prostitute or because of how skinny I am they first started this rumour that I am on drugs just because of how skinny I am,” She explained amid tears with the video ending abruptly.

The video, which showed Elsa in her natural element without any makeup, lip gloss or designer clothes that have come to define her social media persona, sent alarm bells ringing, triggering an outpouring of reactions from Kenyans and her international fanbase, with many expressing concern and calling for compassion as questions emerged over her emotional state.

One user recounted Majimbo’s journey on social media, expressing hope that the influencer will get her spark back.

Another user reflected on the pain that came with the fame for Majimbo in light of her online experience writing:

Many urged the public to show Majimbo more grace and compassion, cautioning against harsh judgment and reminding critics that public figures are human beings who also experience difficult moments and deserve kindness.
