- Many people have criticized and laughed at her, saying her looks are totally off, she cannot sing and she should probably re-think her life choices.
But Mercy Atieno says you should not judge her before hearing her story. She claims she fought hard to go to America but was accused falsely of arson, served five years in prison and later got deported naked.
Her song, " I don't give a damn" has gone viral and she says all the people who laughed at her are in for a big shock.
She sat down with Lynn Ngugi for this exclusive episode of Tuko Talks and this is her story

Kama unapenda huyu Dem gonga like hapa,she is my favourite woman so far,we don't really care
Am really really happy for her,I even cried.
She is one in a million
The first thing I love about her is the confidence. The first time is saw her video I was like; 'damn, I wish I had half her confidence' 💪
She's got a cute personality. She's real and authentic. Brave just like yours truly. God bless you baby girl
You gonna go far for real n proof to all your hater there is a living God
Am I the only one amazed by how she remembers all those who helped her by name? 🙌🏿🙆🏿♀️
This is the most likes Nimewai get😎 thanks y’all
She is a grateful soul.
Me too
Me 2 ,am like dadadaadadmn!🤣
She is a great lady, she never forget those got her hand
One can’t possibly forget pple who helped them. Personally I got a very sharp memory
I love how she remembers every name of the people that helped her..
She is so authentic honestly. Such a pure spirit.
Maybe its time we review our comments lol,,this lady is a greedy con who exploited young gals sexually
She said MY NAME.....just for that i like her, she remembers all the names of the people who helped her...soar on girl
A person who remembers everybody that helped her wow i. Havent seen any one like this.
T🎉
The fact that she's narrating her traumatic experience without crying! Nothing, absolutely nothing can bring her down!
May God lift her n ashame her enemies
Crying is therapeutic..it's good
Singing is the best therapy.
True.
I love her spirit.. A very strong willed lady I love the part NEVER GIVE UP
She is crazy, loveable, strong, fearless, you can't help but love her, her story is so touching.
Normalise not calling people crazy!!
Nakupenda Sana Mercy.
I am not a Kenyan.
And I am really sorry judging 😔 you wrongly.
May God forgive me.
I pray the Lord grants your heart desires. 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏
Wow you are so amazing after everything you are still strong keep it up 🤗
What a remarkable woman, what a personality, so strong so spiritually healthy and so charismatic!
Are we all going to ignore Lynn's humility & empathy 💯💯💯❤️
@@muziki79 go on
No we can't
She is the best..
But reaching USA you begin to see how people survive
@Amazing Grace
I am in California and I know these goons deport you just as you are. If they get you in jail clothes, hospital clothes or whatever you got at that moment, they board you their plane immediately.
I'm amazed at how she remembers all the names of people who helped her. She's so smart.
How could you not?
@@rotail4873 someone with dementia
She's smart
Amazing....oh my
She remembers everyone who helped her, they did touch her in a special way, good interview
She has one thing i never had in my life of which i m jealous ; self esteem, confidence...
And her English proficiency ...!
Self esteem true
I think with self esteem it improves gradually, sometimes you still get those moments where you doubt yourself but you get through it
Gosh me too
Imagine. Despite all she's soo happy.
She is very strong , look how she narrates her story without crying 😭😭as for me ryt nw i can't hold my tears. Much ĺove from Zimbabwe.
The only problem with I DON'T GIVE a damn is that she's the realest WARRIOR in town.
Congratulations.
So much.
Hello my friend 😂ulishafika huku
This lady remembers every single person, by name, who has contributed to her growth. Amazing! Such a jovial gal! May God see you through.
amen. She is truly bright
@@magdalinemunywoki4264 lol
That's the most amazing thing....I love that
Some vinyngarika wakienda majuu wakirudi after 2yrs wanatuuliza majina yetu
Lynn this is too much.I am already crying.Dont judge her.Let us support her
Im literally in tears listening to her story, such a strong woman
What a beautiful soul.
I judged her wrongly God forgive me😟she has just taught me to never give up,I will never give up despite my challenges
Me too
Yes Mary, she went through a lot💥she is still smilling through it all, she has thought me to more stronger and persue my dream more💥 WILL SURELLY SUPPORT HER MUSIC AND DONATE IF I CAN.
@@sherriwisdom0201 great
But Lynn is such a loveable person. She makes her guests feel so comfortable. You deserve an award
100%
Exactly
Totally agree
she is soo adorable
100%
Her English!!!! So far much better than us here who were really judging her harshly
Kuliko Lynn😂😂😂
She has told me how to speak the American accent! something I have been struggling with.
Kweli
@@magdalinemunywoki4264 *taught
Watching this I just feel in love with her..... woow
You’re indeed a legend with an incredible soul. I’m bowled over by your level of tenacity and positivity. Sending you all the love and light your way. ❤️❤️❤️
I feel sorry for all that she went through.
But, I have a question? It seems something is missing to make up the pieces.
Running away from her first location, is she sure she didn't end up doing drugs with bad company?
People who live in the shelter have something in common.
That is, violence and drugs addicts lives in the shelter.
Thank God she's back home safely.
@@yhgye4881 not necessarily. There’s also people with mental illness or people who don’t have family to help them and may be suffering with poor health and unemployment. Not every homeless person is on drugs. That’s a stereotype that isn’t true.
What a moving story. God will open ways for you Atis. It is sweet to be back in your home country.
Tell your story on your own Channel. Large viewership means money...
🥂 to everyone who loves her music, she's such a happy person
There's beauty in her innocence.realest person.shes eloquent, humble,and her vibe is just infectious.she's an inspiration.the lady that was doing the interview,job well done
haaa time to all review our comments aki ,,,
@@bw4423 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣i know ,it's about that time .
Youve made my morning
The fact that she remembers all the names of the people who helped her is just amazing
Just proves her brightness while in school
Her Christian Foundation allows her to be thankful to God first, then to her fellow man kind. I just learned a lot from her. Thank God for her resilience & her Faith
Amen!
Very smart Girl that's it!!
So true shows an amazing person she is
Incredible!
This girl is a gem for Kenya. Please give her a job where she can prepare young people who wish to travel to America. She is brilliant and her story is touching. I am full of tears to hear her story. Oh Lord
Who else loves how Lyn listens to every person she interviews keenly without even judging them.lots of love Lyn 💞
I am Zimbabwean and l just love your positive spirit. God will surely lift you high. You represent true african sisterhood🥰🤗
God bless u thing s will work out fr u god is able l thank him fr yr strength l will continue praying fr u
She is a legend. All that story without a breakdown even a tear drop.she is a strong woman
True
I was crying the whole time I was watching
@@naomizvizualz511 ..n I was lmao!
Tears don't equate to weakness.
Let's be honest... A little bit. Who didn't judge her before this? I know I did... And am so sorry😫. She is an imperfect perfection
honestly...I did. but my gosh what a bright and child-like soul she has.
Sure..i also did..bt she is an amazing soul..
I didn't judge her, I knew there was a story behind her, nobody wakes up one day and makes a video like that.
I did judge her and i now apologise to her♥️may God bless her
One thing I've come to know, is the boldest, confident and 'don't care' people, especially women, have gone through alot for them to be that way. Because they know how hard life has been
Aarghh she's such a sweet human being honesty and to still maintain that after what she's gone through I mean God bless her heart 🙏🏾
She is so smart, look at the way she is calling everyone 's name, even though it was long ago.
I've cried woiiiii, she's so positive even after going through alot. If nobody cares just know that Jesus cares.
Me too have cried 😢 😭 😪
I cried too so touching
Ikr people do be crue for nothing 😞😞😩
Can we give the interviewer some credit please? Beautiful interview
You look exactly like her
She is sounds so sweet🥰🥰
She asks the questions like we would ask as Africans wanting to know the real story.
Lol an interviewer who repeats the obvious
I have never seen someone with so much life and spirit. I am literally in tears now😢. Thank you Mercy for sharing and Thank you Tuko for making this video. I am at a point in my life where this video has made a big difference in how I view my life and current situation. I hope God keeps opening greater doors for you Mercy.
I'm sorry v be v be able I hope your new house in about cvvvivivivivv👨❤️💋👨👨❤️💋👨👨❤️💋👨💴💴👖🧦🧣🥾🥾🥽🥾⛓️📄📏📄📄📏📄📏📄📏📄🕛📥📆📆📆🔒♑
Her smile is infectious. Keep fighting Mercy, the future is bright
Everyone seeing this needs to tag CNN on all their social media accounts ,this amazing smart lady deserves justice
@Zorodzai MMK lol no, but her story will be exposed and the people who can will see
My thoughts also
@Zorodzai MMK LOL
What will cnn do?
SHE IS SO SMART WITH A FORGIVENESS HEART.MAY GOD CONT BLESSING AND PROTECTING HER.SHE SUFFERED A LOT IN AMERICA.
she remembers every angel's name, that's why the Lord keeps blessing her, she's just grateful and full of faith in herself and most importantly God.
thats true
I know she’ll be back one day kaa mungu amemuinua to another level🙏🏾
I cannot hold my tears just listening to that last song. This lady has been through a lot and she really deserves a second chance.
True
You are not alone baby girl the whole squad is out there
Struggling
As a Kenyan I don't give a dahm
Go girl go
Her level of eloquence and the way she remembers people who gave her an helping hand is so amazing
Yeah! That made me think....I need to be kinder to people
This woman is destined to be an international attorney!! She is too bright of a human.
The interviewer is one of the best I have ever seen!
I watched this interview to laugh at her after I had seen her music video “ I don’t really care” but ended up with tears. She is very resilient and smart. Sending love from NY❤️
She’s got the kind of personality when she walks inside a room it just lights up. She’s eloquent as well and doesn’t strike me as a judgmental human being. I love her 😍
I honestly feel awful she’s been all that! Jesus! The whole experience in jail plus deportation process was undeserved.
K
She's really likeable. All smiles and so polite.
She loves Mayanja aka chameleon my neighbour wao i also love this lady she's friendly
She's got a pure heart. God bless you our little sister!
Yeah. And the fact that there is no trace of bitterness when she tells of her torture. Just amazing
Racism every where
What God has put together let no 1 put assurder
I love ur spirit I declare ur future will b greater than pass💯💯❤❤🌹🌹
Your level of strength is inspiring, I can't believe what you went through
Any misstep into the American justice system, when you're poor or black, can be catastrophic.
Thank you @goodasgoing, most people don't understand...thats what I called it- the fine print.
Absolutely
Yes,yes,and Yes!
You realize she's such a wonderful person the moment you get to hear her story,by the way I am one of those who trolled her.May God forgive me.
You are forgiven..
Amen
Ur one in a million.
She is a whole vibe. I love her confidence, she will go far
100% true.very inspiring and many lessons for our fellow kenyans who can give anything to go to 'the states"
Depressed people can fake smiles mami.
She's so confident no wonder she went so far, confidence wins all the time love her
She's really a strong woman despite all the torture and suffering she faced she can smile and be happy...she really don't care
I am so marvelled by her incredible story and her tenacity. Can we start a 'go fun me' to support this angelic creature. Ready to support financially. One Africa, one love- "Ubuntu".
Can we talk about how eloquent she is??🙌🙌🙌 She sounds smart💯
Very smart 🔥🔥🔥
She is smart
Very smart😍...I love the way she's honest
Siku expect btw
She is very smart
She remembers the names of everyone who helped her from her young age. This shows that she was really smart in school just as she said
I lov the energy she is so positive
.
I noticed that too,she has such a grateful heart.bless her
So strong. How can she laugh her way through all those experiences..... It just amazing.
What a very strong woman you are. So cheerful and detailed and still ready to achieve her dreams. God help you dear. Kudos
Okay. I came ready to laugh only to find a genuinely warm person with a beautiful voice. I mean her voice is beautiful. All the best Mercy Atis.
True
You can never be more original, more authentic than this!! God's grace upon her🙏🏿🙏🏿
Omg she has angelic voice...she should consider singing gospel aachane na secular. Am an SDA so the song she just sang have felt it differently 💗💗💗.She's definitely going far. She is just smart upstairs 👏👏
Omg my heart melted 😭😭😭when she was singing that gospel song, God will surely see you true sis much love from South Sudan,❤️💞😘😘
Now I understand why she doesn't care about petty things like gossip..she is one strong lady
very strong woman i RESPECT her❤❤❤
So true. Don’t sweat the small stuff
I don't know why this is funny😂
I feel bad, nilimcheka. She’s a good hearted person
Can’t stop crying 😢 she is so strong and positive. I’m very sorry this happened to you in the US It shouldn’t God bless you🙏🏾 “Don’t give up” “Jesus cares”🙌🏾
She's really a strong woman indeed, well done dear keep moving on, don't give up . You're so lovely 💯💯❤❤❤
The voice is there, only lacking is coaching and guidance. So bad everyone judged her extremely harshly 🤕😰
Very true Lilly. She needs a good voice couch, guidance and good producer..... She has talent.
Also a song writer to perfect the lyrics
I absolutely agree with you Lily
Maybe perfection will clash with authenticity there. That's the error we do and and up making everyone sound perfectly same.
The presenter of the show is so humble. Her work ethics is amazing. 🤗🤗🤗
And very compassionate
Lynn is really a God send. Mungu ambariki sana
Kudos Lynn.
Do gospel songs 🙏
This is very humbling. Mercy is such an inspiration. She will go places!
A lady with a beautiful soul. Beautiful smile 😊. Remembering and appreciating everyone that has helped her in life. God’s favour keep accompanying you.
This lady is very smart, intelligent n confident....she only needs someone to hold her hands n guide her..... She has what it takes
Africa is awesome thanks for making me want to work so hard in Africa
If you need somebody to hold and guide you that's the opposite of intelligence.But I get your point.
SP. Your 100% right.
We all need a helping hand in life (especially when we go abroad).
It is not the Lord's design that we go through everything alone.
Even the great men of this world have meetings & advisors...
In the multitude of counsel there is safety
Very true
I love her positive spirit
This proves why we should NEVER judge people without knowing there story. Even if we know one’s story, we should never judge anyone. Be blessed Mercy! May God give you your heat’s desires 🙏🙏🙏
glad i listened to her story
I tell you
I'm wandering what State in the US was she living I'm in Ohio and I'm sorry you had to go through this
That kind of treatment for someone is not good
so amazing, after all she went through, she still says never give up and she is even smiling through...this strength is rare....for me i would have broken down through out the interview. i admire her and pray for success and prosperity in her life. Am soo touched.
For all the injustices she faced ....God says vengeance is mine...so let this beautiful lady keep smiling and soaring
Woie her laughter is infectious ..GOD remember her ..am sorry for judging her wrongly who am i to sit at the seat reserved for the MOST HIGH am sorry FATHER forgive me ..mercy we love you ..
Who ever mistreated this ophan will never know peace.....I am happy you are a positive person
I also hope Kenyans learn to have each other's back. Kenya is all we have. But tribalism and lawlessness will not let us develop.
I am in Canada and I can't imagine what I would do if I were in your place. There are many people who might have laughed at your situation. But I love your positivity, your strength and laughter! Keep going!
This lady is so real.... She gonna achieve her dreams..
For a woman Who went through a lot she really is cheerful. So strong. I would buy the book if she ever published it😊🥰😇
May God continue open your way.Remain blessed. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🧎♂️
No one would afford to hate her after watching this, she's so amazing
Exactly mama no one

She's really amazing ❤❤❤❤
A nightmare that no one should have to live but she survived it. Inspirational story. I love her resilience I wish I could like twice
She's really kind, strong with a such a good vibe. Her story is heart-breaking but she's going places
Suddenly i love her song😂😂😂after listening to her story
Me too, wow
Me too aki gaii sikujua she's such a Darling
Same here
This lady knows how to express herself very well and she’s very intelligent!!!!She could thrive in communications. Her story is the saddest I’ve heard today.
She could even be a motivational speaker
U need to sign for the Lord
Watching from South Africa. I love her polite personality and very pure spirit. Very touching story💞
She’s got a contagious smile and I absolutely love her personality. Some people just have healing energy, despite all the trials they are facing. She’s one of those healing souls. Keep being you girl 🤗
She is such a strong will woman with a "never say die" kind of motto. Resilient spirit is all over her
Such a beautiful soul it is very hard to watch.Thank God you are alive to tell your.story I wish you all the best may the Lord continue to strengthen you.
I love her self acceptance....
She’s okay with who she is, no approval needed.
So true
I never expected to watch till the end but am blessed to have watched. God bless you more. ❤️❤️❤️
Happy I stumbled on this video, u just made my day, i remember sharing your video on my status just for fun,sorry for judging u. I love your energy and your story is mind-blowing!!! Keep up the positive vibe my sister, your Cameroonian fan!
She can sing, at the end she killed it. She just need to teach her or show her which kind of song she can do the best. Such a lovely soul.
She sounds smarter and more polished than the average Kenyan celebrity. Great story of resilience and zero Fs given.
You can say that again there is no comparison
Wishing your guest a beautiful and successful future. USA must be judged on the content of its people not the glossy Hollywood films.
But we are brainwashed u see even lynn saying she wants God to open doors for her to go to America.I am tired with this crap
Her story really touched me, I am in tears😭😭😭😭, God bless her beautiful soul.
I love her already, who wouldn't! She has a soul like that of a child and these are the people who inherit the kingdom of God.
True
So true
Amen
Very true
I love the fact that she's just being her self and not pretending to be someone else. Let people just be and do what they love instead of criticising them let us show love and support them in what they do, And if you don't love what they do then you're free to go and like whatever you want
She's real ...God will bless you mercy you're strong and talented I love your story manze .
Love you mercy, God is a God of second chances.
Your story is encouraging God bless you
Agree 💯.. 👍
We should start treating Americans the way they treat people from other nations.
Pleases don't I'm American and I support everyone and loves everyone we are not all the same sorry for wat happened

I feel for her..
But why would you actually judge her based on a funny song?
She understands and accepts herself and that's one path to living a good rich life 😄😄just like we can all see she's full of laughter, peace and happiness❤️
