I was talking to some buddies about this the other day. I’m not on TikTok, so I don’t have the “oh, she’s being forced down my throat” reaction (phrasing, I know). She just seems like a regular girl who’s pretty funny / witty in a super dry way, and isn’t afraid to lean into the joke.
Sure she’s milking it (phrasing again, I know), but like, she’s also not pretending she isn’t. It’s kind of refreshing to see someone from Gen Z have their 15 minutes of fame and not get cancelled for being problematic and / or pushing some weird grift.
That's what makes her likeable she's not pretending she's not milking it, and she herself is surprised by all the attention she was just drunk and making a joke, it took on a life of its own. She seems to still be pretty down to earth and is enjoying while it last.
