Donegal digital creator Eric Roberts is in line for an award at the Gossies 2023 – and you can help.

The Downings man has become a social media sensation in recent years.

With over half-a-million followers on TikTok and 159,000 on Instagram, Eric has built up quite the fanbase.

Eric is nominated in the Newcomer of the Year category. He is one of eleven nominees, who also include lip-syncer Kyleigh Trappe and impressionist Conor Moore.

“Our Newcomer of the Year category shines a light on up and coming stars in the Irish entertainment industry, and the competition is very stiff this year,” goss.ie say.

“These rising stars are all making a name for themselves in their own way – whether it’s on social media, on stage, or on screen.”

Voting closes at midnight on Sunday.

The Gossies 2023 will be held on March 4 at The Convention Centre in Dublin. Host Muireann O’Connell will act as ringmaster on the night.
