TikTok ‘prankster’ Mizzy skips London Fashion Week debut – ‘he hasn’t turned up’

TikTok ‘joker’ Mizzy was a no-show at a London fashion event – despite declaring he’s turned over a new leaf with dreams of becoming a model and actor.

The infamous social media sensation, whose real name is Bacari-Bronze O’Garro, 19, from Stoke Newington, gained notoriety online last year. His outrageous stunts included filming himself entering strangers’ homes, making off with a woman’s dog, and causing a nuisance at a train station.

In April, Mizzy was found guilty of stealing a woman’s iPhone in Highbury New Park in June 2022. He was ordered to pay £500 to the victim, complete 15 days of rehabilitation activity, and carry out 100 hours of unpaid work.

He also received a community order which prohibited him from posting videos online until November 2025. Since then, the dad-of-one was touted as one of the models set to strut his stuff at top hat designer Christine Campbell’s show for London Fashion Week, held at the stunning graffiti-covered Leake Street Arches near Waterloo on Saturday night, reports MyLondon.

The venue was buzzing with social media influencers, and was put together by The Sound Bank, a leading events company which Mizzy has previously interned for as a digital marketing PR.

But as the event unfurled it became apparent that one of the much-anticipated models had gone AWOL. When prodded about the absence of Mizzy, one of the organisers claimed: “He hasn’t turned up. He was supposed to be here hours ago. It’s a shame because he’s missed all this.”

However, Mizzy reached out to MyLondon to clear the air shortly after, and said: “I unfortunately missed the fashion show which I intended to go to due to unexpected circumstances consisting of an important family emergency which I will not go into due to personal reasons.”

“In addition to this, I have been keeping up my positive character development to be a role model for my community and my child. Hence why I put my family first, family over everything. I’m gutted that it didn’t go the way I planned, I’m still in works with The Sound Bank and they understand the situation I was in. Expect future projects coming from us, everything happens for a reason.”

His claims, however, do not tally with that of the organisers, as a Sound Bank spokesman said: “We are also gutted that Bacari did not turn up. Having now spoke with him he has said that leading up to the show stage fright got the better of him but he is determined to build his confidence and deeply hopes he will be given a further chance and future opportunities for LFW 2025.”
