The actor, who captivated audiences as a young talent, has undergone a remarkable transformation.
Nene has embraced Hinduism, dedicating himself to a monastic life—a shift that has elicited mixed reactions from fans and followers.
While many have offered their support, others have criticized his choices, particularly his adoption of a more feminine appearance.
This, however, hasn’t deterred Nene from standing firm in his truth.
In a recent exchange with a critic, Nene addressed speculations about his gender, emphasizing that he has not changed it and continues to use male pronouns.
“But think about it… I changed from what to what? You’ll make up so much shit it’s amazing. And last I checked, unless informed by me, I’ve always gone by he/him pronouns, so where do you all make this up from? Hebu help me??” he remarked.
The criticism didn’t stop there.
When a female netizen referred to him as a “she-male,” Nene clapped back with characteristic wit, saying, “I know it’s tough having a boy looking cuter than you. I don’t blame you. Nakuelewa.”
In a lighter moment, a fan teasingly asked if he was pregnant, to which Nene responded with humor: “I’m glowing, ey? But if I was to be pregnant, I’d make a cuter baby than you, to be honest. But I’ll leave you to deal with the labor pains.”
Ian Nene’s transformation continues to spark conversation, but his confidence and quick wit prove he is unbothered by the noise, staying true to himself as he navigates his unique path.
