Australian social media sensation Kurt Coleman has claimed that he was once ‘bullied’ in high school by a teacher. 

The 22-year-old shared a TikTok video of himself and said a liaison officer once laughed in his face when he said he wanted to be a ‘superstar’ when he was older.

Kurt said that he was even called a ‘Mr. Know It All’ by the staffer and told fans: ‘It’s not always kids that bully you.’

‘One thing I’ll never forget from school is when this teacher, and she was called a liaison officer, she came into the class and was basically helping everyone get jobs after school and traineeships or whatever,’ Kurt said. 

‘She asked everyone in the class what they wanted to be when they were older. And everyone was like, “teacher, hairdresser” and then when it came to me, I was like, “I’m going to be a superstar.” 

He then said she told him not to even bother trying to pursue his goal.

‘And she literally laughed in my face and goes, “you think you’re Mr. Know It All. You’re not, so don’t even try.” And I was like, “that’s literally what I want to be” and she was just laughing at me.’

Kurt said he then hit back and eventually got kicked out of the class. 

‘And I was like, “well you went to school and went to university and you’re at school still.” And then I got kicked out of the class. It’s not always kids that bully you. I’m still going to be a superstar, so whatever.’
