If you’re not a fan of Dee Kosh, real name Darryl Ian Koshy, you’d probably know him as the guy who reacts to cringey TikTok videos and a food expert at Food King.

But he’s more than just a YouTube and radio personality. He has his own talent agency as well with real, living talents under him.

According to reports, it seems like Koshy’s agency has seven talents under him, and three of them have spoken out regarding the allegations.

One of the talents, Ben Tang, expressed his disappointment with Koshy’s alleged actions despite being a good friend of his.

The influencer said he “does not condone” his actions and hopes that Dee Kosh will learn from this incident.

While he understands that people are angry and frustrated at the moment, Tang said they shouldn’t direct their hatred towards him, as netizens have been insulting him and his family, and leaving inappropriate comments.

Tang also highlighted that some of the images of him and Koshy in compromising positions were “staged” and “not forced upon him”, and that the both of them had a “strictly professional” relationship for the past five years.

Keith

Another talent, known only as Keith, says he is on the fence. He does not “support or fault” Koshy for his actions.

However, he felt that the evidence of Koshy’s wrongdoings is lacking.
