I don't know his real name, but his nickname is "Pala Baba". He isn't truly famous, but he is fairly well known through his drunk Tiktok live streams. Aside from the strange looks, he is just a scumbag. He swears at everything, makes weird sexual innuendos (often distastefully graphic), pretends to be an authority in "being a man", usually makes misogynistic comments, but also every now and then says stuff that has homosexual podophilic subtext (my theory is he is gay and he's really angry about it so he's taking it out on women), and he has a criminal history, too. Basically truly a bottom of the barrel person. P.S. I have a huge crush on Eleni Tsolaki. She says "kalimera" and I melt LOL
