Influencer Lucy Welcher sparked controversy with a TikTok post claiming she’s “too pretty” to work. In the November 8, 2022, video, she declared, “I do not want to work for the rest of my life. Does it look like I want to get up at 6 a.m. every f**king day for the next 60 years? No! I’m too pretty for that!” This statement drew criticism from viewers who labeled her as “shallow” and “entitled.”
In response to the backlash, Welcher deleted the video, explaining she felt “slandered all over social media.” She clarified in a follow-up post that the original video was meant as a joke and corrected various online inaccuracies about her lifestyle, such as false claims about owning luxury cars or living in a mansion.
On November 14, Welcher addressed the drama with a new video, redoing her “too pretty” message. This time, she received support from viewers who interpreted the content as humor.
