An influencer ignited a firestorm in the online community when she posted a TikTok claiming that she’s “too pretty” for the daily grind of work.
Netizens swiftly criticized her, labeling her as “shallow” and “entitled” for suggesting that employment is only for those deemed less attractive.
Lucy Welcher, a social media influencer with nearly 20 million likes, caused a stir with a viral clip posted on November 8, 2022.
In the short video, the young blonde, known for her car-sitting and lifestyle content, expressed her disdain for the idea of working for the rest of her life. She flippantly stated, “I’m too pretty for that!” drawing ire from viewers who found her attitude lazy and self-absorbed.
Commenters lambasted Welcher for her perceived entitlement and lack of work ethic, with many expressing disbelief at her confidence and urging her to grow up.
In response to the backlash, Welcher deleted the controversial post and addressed the criticism in a follow-up video, where she claimed to be “slandered” across social media. She clarified that her initial video was meant as a joke, not a genuine assertion of superiority.
Days later, Welcher posted a remake of her infamous video, this time with the majority of commenters rallying behind her, recognizing the humor in her exaggerated statement. Some even joined in, affirming her supposed status as “too pretty” for the daily grind.
My Dad Who Left 20 Years Ago Called from His Deathbed for a Final Wish — What He Asked Broke My Heart
When my estranged father, who left 20 years ago, called from his deathbed, I was torn between anger and curiosity. His final wish revealed shocking truths.
I was getting ready for bed when an unfamiliar number called, followed by a text: “ALICE, THIS IS YOUR DAD. PLEASE CALL, I AM IN THE HOSPITAL.” My heart stopped. Dad? After twenty years? Curiosity won, and I called back.
“Dad?”
“Alice, it’s me. I… I don’t have much time.”
“Why are you calling now?”
“I need to explain… to ask something of you. But please, don’t tell your mother.” He revealed that my grandfather paid him to disappear because he thought Dad was a failure. “I took the money to secure your future.”
“Why didn’t you come back?”
“I couldn’t. But I watched from a distance, saw your graduation, your volleyball games.”
I felt my world tilt. “Why didn’t Mom tell me?”
“Maybe she thought she was protecting you.”
“What do you want now?”
“I need to see you, Alice. One last time before I go.”
I decided to go. At the hospital, he looked frail. “Alice,” he whispered.
“Why did you do it, Dad?”
“I thought it was the best way to secure a future for you. I wrote letters every year. They’re in a safety deposit box.”
After his death, I found the letters. They were filled with his regrets and love. I confronted Mom, who admitted she thought it was best for me too.
In the end, I used the money to start a scholarship fund in his name, honoring his memory and sacrifices.
