KSI: Flooded with DMs from Older Ladies After BGT Appearance

KSI: Flooded with DMs from Older Ladies After BGT Appearance

KSI has revealed his role as a judge on Britain’s Got Talent has earned him a legion of new older admirers. 

The YouTube sensation, 31, bagged the position on the popular ITV Saturday night TV show earlier this year and his inclusion has certainly been a hit with fans. 

But while KSI has been much-loved by younger generations for years, his decision to move into mainstream television has now also earned him the respect of an older age group. 

He told The Sun: ‘I have always had mature women sliding into my DMs but I’d say BGT has definitely sky-rocketed the DMs, and them recognising me more.’

In fact the increased adulation KSI has received from the new-found older section of his fan base even inspired the chorus of his new track, Catch Me If You Can.

After teasing the track for weeks on his social media accounts, KSI at last released his latest single on Thursday. 

He raps: ‘Million-dollar smile, baby that’s the brand/ go and ask your mum, yeah she know who I am.’

And it seems fans could be treated to more music from the Prime owner, with him revealing that’s sitting on a heap of unreleased tracks. 

‘I am always working on music, so I have a lot of songs I feel are a better fit for a season, or how I feel,’ he said.

However the rapper’s previous release titled Thick Of It, which came out in October 2024, was ‘clowned’ by supporters following its release – with Jack Whitehall even taking a jibe at the tune while presenting the BRITs.

KSI himself even joked that he ‘couldn’t believe’ the song featuring Trippie Redd was nominated for Song of the Year. 

‘When I got the message I laughed,’ he said on the red carpet in March.

‘When I released the song I was getting clowned, people online were meme-ing the song saying, “what is this, this isn’t good” blah blah blah.

‘But people kept listening to it, people kept streaming it and as soon as I got that BRIT nomination it was the cherry on top.

‘It put a smile to my face.’

Amid his various endeavours into music and television, KSI had been scheduled to step into the ring again in March to take on Dillon Danis in a Misfits boxing event.

However following a huge amount of back and forth trash talk online between the pair, KSI was forced to pull out of the bout just one week before fight night at the end of March. 

The fighter claimed his body had ‘given up’ after weeks of illness.

But a couple of days later he was spotted in the VIP section of an Usher concert at the 02 arena in London, prompting a furious response from his opponent. 

Sharing a clip of KSI, Danis wrote: ‘You can’t make this s*** up.

‘@KSI faked the sniffles. He’s a scared little b****. I was told he couldn’t get out of bed, and he’s out on the night of the fight? WTF.’

Despite the fight supposedly being postponed rather than cancelled, a new date has yet to be announced.
