Five BIG moments from the second half of I Am LAYCON
The final five episodes of Laycon’s reality series have dropped. Some even went back to the beginning to watch all ten episodes together (check out these OMG moments from the first five episodes).
Here’s our pick of the funniest, most emotional moment from the second half of the seaons of I Am LAYCON.
1. Laycon’s blind date
In keeping with being the life of the party, Abayomi decided to set Laycon up on a blind date and fans could not contain their excitement at the prospects.
2. Laycon’s injection
Is there anything funnier than seeing a grown man retreat from an injection-wielding nurse? Fans saw a different side of Laycon after he took ill and had to be given regular injections, and wasted no time in having a few laughs at his expense.
3. Abayomi’s car crash
Things took a downward turn for Abayomi after he crashed Laycon’s car on his way out with friends. But even more interesting was Laycon’s reaction to the incident which had Tariela, Laycon’s Content Manager completely baffled.
“Are you serious, are you this calm? Before the accident you were always screaming and shouting, don’t touch my car, don’t do this, just know how you drive the car, now an accident has happened like you predicted and you’re this calm…”
Talk about a plot twist.
4. Laycon’s fight with Abayomi
Abayomi may have established himself as the life of the party on the show, but he wasted no time in setting Laycon straight after he went hanging out with his friends without security or informing anyone.
“You went out to eat where? There’s no food in the freezer? You can’t just go out anyhow!” Abayomi exploded at Laycon.
Ouch!
5. Dinner with the team
In an emotional season finale, Laycon hosted a quiet dinner party where he recounted the role everyone played in his journey so far. He also performed some of his tracks giving fans a taste of what to expect from his music career.
