Social Media Responses to Cassper’s Video
@Noma99177 commented:
“I don’t know why some people hate Casper Nyovest so much, I feel sorry for him; no one deserves to be body shamed like that.”
@Gumm_Zoro said:
“Whoever said ‘two-piece yako Miladys’😅😂😂 really hurt Cassper.”
@ochirozowafx noted:
“This man’s mentality is top tier. All people on Twitter do is project their miserable lives. I’m glad he’s taking the comments as motivation instead of putting him down. I will be coming to #FullUpToyotaStadium from Botswana along with an entourage of my Batswana friends.”

“It’s more the choice of clothes than the actual weight. That outfit was ridiculous.”
