The multi-talented Tolulope “Tolu” Ogunmefun, aka Tboy, is a comedian, actor, and author, as well as a musician, whose content is unpinned by the feel-good factor, infused with African culture. He regularly performs under the banner Don’t Jealous Me, and is also the co-host of The YT Podcast with his wife and childhood sweetheart, Yemi.
Born in London, and raised and educated in Nigeria and England, Ogunmefun’s career as a comedian started by chance when a friend at university filmed him making a comical rant beginning with the phrase ‘don’t jealous me’. The video was uploaded to Facebook and went viral. The DontJealousMe comedy series soon branched into a full web series consisting of skits, parodies and songs. Now regarded as one of the most sought after African comedians, the success of the show has accumulated over 43.5 million views online as well as over 177k subscribers to his YouTube channel, while his growing fan base has led to tours around the US and the UK. He has also bagged major roles in top TV shows such as Sick Note, Hang Ups, Drifters, Man Like Mobeen, and Starstuck. He also made his big screen debut in the 2018 crime drama Yardie, directed by Idris Elba.
Ogunmefun regularly connects with his hundreds of thousands of followers and fans through Instagram, TikTok, and Twitter, posting pictures and videos about his life around entertainment. He also has a dedicated YouTube channel, DntJealousMe.
