Cross added that he’s human and likes to wear his heart on his sleeves, and the whole entertainment, social media, and celebrity lifestyle is new to him.

According to Cross, the celebrity lifestyle comes with many dos and don’ts, and it’s becoming overwhelming for him.

In his words: “So it was a mistake, it was just a mistake of a thing. And before I knew it I quickly deleted it. It was a simple mistake. People should understand the type of person I am, first of all, I am a human being and me I wear my heart on my sleeves. So this whole entertainment, social media thing and lifestyle is still new to me.

I’m trying to get the concept about ‘do this don’t do this’ its choking me, I just want to be me. I just want to live how I have always wanted to be.

I’m just a guy that just wants to have a good time and in the process make a lot of money to provide for his family. So it was just a simple mistake, so anybody that is saying anything out of it, Ndooo.”⁣
