In social media, not everything is what it seems or is claimed to be.
Another example of this was given when the Tiktok star who became very popular in the United States Brian Johnson caught using steroids.
Johnson is also known as the Liver King. Johnson, who is very muscular and often appears shirtless, has promoted the “ancestral lifestyle” and has eaten, among other things, animal brains, testicles and raw liver.
The Washington Post – magazine says that Johnson has claimed that eating organs and a diet heavily emphasizing meat has helped him achieve huge muscles and happiness.
An e-mail in which Johnson said he was using huge amounts of anabolic steroids was recently made public.
After that, the man released a confession video.
– I lied and misled many people. Yes, I have used steroids and yes, I am currently using them, Johnson said, according to the Washington Post.
Johnson has previously denied using steroids.
According to the Washington Post, Johnson sells foods and supplements through his company based on the diet and lifestyle he promotes.
Former American football star player Robert Griffin III commented on Johnson’s rant on Twitter, wondering how anyone could believe the man had gotten his muscles without steroids in the first place.
Johnson did not respond to a Washington Post request for an interview.
Johnson has 3.7 million followers on Tiktok and 1.7 million on Instagram.
According to the Washington Post, liver king rose to great popularity very quickly, in just about 1.5 years.
