“I Didn’t Give Peller Fake Dollars” — Gregory Pizarro Jr. Reacts After Being Accused, Says He’s in Amsterdam With the Prime Minister of the Netherlands
The fallout from Peller’s fake dollar drama just added a new name to the story and it’s not one Nigerians expected. American TikTok personality Gregory Pizarro Jr., widely known as one of Peller’s biggest overseas supporters, has broken his silence after viewers accused him of being behind the counterfeit notes sprayed at the wedding.
How the Accusation Started
The drama traces back to Peller himself, who revealed in a livestream that while the Nigerian currency sprayed on him during his wedding was genuine, some of the foreign currency turned out to be fake. Peller explained that he only discovered the issue after returning home from the celebration and taking the money to the bank, where he was told a portion of it wasn’t real. He said he initially felt like a millionaire before the disappointment set in, and he stopped short of naming exactly who had handed him the counterfeit notes.
That silence left room for speculation and given how visible Gregory Pizarro Jr. had been throughout the wedding festivities, his name quickly got pulled into the conversation online.
Why Gregory’s Name Came Up
It’s not hard to see why viewers jumped to that conclusion. Gregory, an American TikToker widely regarded as Peller’s most generous overseas gifter, had already made headlines days before the wedding for handing Peller a $20,000 cash gift after flying into Nigeria specifically for the occasion. He didn’t stop there either he pulled up to the wedding itself in a Rolls-Royce Cullinan reportedly worth ₦2 billion, instantly becoming one of the most talked-about guests at the event.
With that level of visibility and his known history of showering Peller with cash gifts, it didn’t take long for comment sections to start speculating that Gregory might have been the one who handed over fake dollar notes whether as a prank, a mix-up, or something more deliberate.
Gregory Responds During a Conversation With SK
The accusations reportedly came up while Gregory was in a livestream conversation with content creator SK, with viewers flooding the comments with “fake money” remarks aimed directly at him. Visibly affected by the comments, Gregory pushed back, saying he never gave Peller fake dollars and that the accusations had genuinely hurt him.
He then added a claim that immediately raised eyebrows across social media saying he was currently in Amsterdam with the Prime Minister of the Netherlands, seemingly as a way of underscoring his standing and dismissing the idea that he’d need to hand out counterfeit cash in the first place.
Fans Split on the Claim
As expected, that particular detail didn’t go unnoticed. While some viewers sympathized with Gregory, pointing to his track record of big, verified gifts to Peller as proof he had no reason to fake anything, others found the Amsterdam and Prime Minister claim hard to take at face value, with the moment quickly turning into its own point of discussion separate from the original fake money accusation.
Whether or not the claim holds up, it’s added an extra layer of intrigue to a story that was already dominating timelines a wedding gift controversy that’s now pulled in an American TikTok personality, a Dutch head of government, and a livestream that nobody saw coming.
Where Things Stand
Peller, for his part, has said he’s done publicly discussing the fake dollar situation for now, telling fans he’d rather move past it than dwell on who exactly handed him the counterfeit notes. But with Gregory Pizarro Jr. now publicly defending himself and viewers still piecing together the timeline of who gave what during the wedding, it’s unlikely this conversation dies down anytime soon.
