'Facejacker' Kayvan Novak: 'People don't recognise me'

'Facejacker' Kayvan Novak: 'People don't recognise me'

Facejacker star Kayvan Novak has revealed that he rarely gets recognised by people on the street.

The comedian appears in various guises in the Channel 4 prank series, and said that he is only noticed by "proper fans".

"I'm quite lucky really, I don't get recognised too much," he told The Sun. "Whenever people do recognise me it means they are a proper fan.

"And they're always really nice. I can just go 'Bah' (Facejacker art critic Brian Badonde phrase) and they'll start laughing.

"Or they'll be a Four Lions fan and I'll go 'rubber dingy rapids'. Either way I'm a pretty low-rent street entertainer!"

He added that he enjoyed upgrading his series from Fonejacker to Facejacker, saying: "It was nice to break cover. Plus the fact that people liked my work before knowing what I looked like was helpful."

Novak also appeared in Channel 4 show Sirens until it was cancelled after one series last year.

Facejacker returns to Channel 4 tomorrow (March 27) at 10pm.
