Drawing Inspiration from Hollywood’s Transformations
In a response to fellow YouTuber MoistCritikal, who reacted to his weight loss, Nikocado Avocado explained his decision to undergo such a dramatic transformation. He drew parallels to actors like Christian Bale, Joaquin Phoenix, and Brendan Fraser, who have all famously altered their bodies for their roles. For Nikocado, this transformation was part of a similar commitment to a character he had created for the sake of entertainment.
The most surprising revelation, however, was the reason behind the creation of his exaggerated, chaotic online persona. According to Nikocado, his goal was simple: to bring joy to his viewers and offer them a break from the negativity and harsh realities of the daily news cycle. He wanted to make people laugh with his outrageous behavior and larger-than-life character.
“I just wanted to make people smile,” Nikocado explained. “That was my dream role that I didn’t get on Broadway or in theater. It’s one thing to do a show for a month — it’s another thing to do a show for eight years.”
The Dream of Broadway, Reinvented on YouTube
Nikocado Avocado also revealed that his passion for performance has deep roots. A trained actor, he had always dreamed of making it big on Broadway, whether through acting or playing the violin. However, like many in the theater industry, he struggled to find consistent work. He explained that contracts on Broadway are often short-term, leaving performers unemployed once the show ends. Faced with these challenges, Nikocado took matters into his own hands and created a character on YouTube, a platform where he could control his own content and, more importantly, his career.
“It was my dream to be on Broadway,” he said. “In the case of Broadway workers, you get a contract for a tour or a show, and when it’s over, you’re unemployed again. I basically employed myself on my own terms here on YouTube.”
Nikocado’s hard work and dedication have certainly paid off. His viral weight loss video has garnered over 48 million views in less than two months, with fans eagerly watching to see what he will do next.
This incredible transformation and the revelation of his motives mark a turning point in Nikocado Avocado’s career. As he moves forward, fans are curious to see what’s next for the YouTuber, now that he has peeled back the curtain on his carefully constructed online character. For now, it’s clear that Nikocado’s desire to entertain has resonated with millions, and his dramatic weight loss only adds to the intrigue surrounding his next move.
