TikTok influencer Kim Arda bashed

-

TikTok influencer and social media personalit­y Kim Arda revealed in a YouTube video that she was judged by posers or impersonat­ors for her content and character on TikTok.

The video titled, “FRUSTRATED NA TALAGA AKO! Sobra na,” showed an emotional Kim, begging her fans to report the posers and help her. “Masakit talaga guys. Sana guys i-beware lang ko talaga guys na matulungan man ako para ma-report yung concern ko sa TikTok. (Guys, it is really painful. I hope you guys can help report my concern to TikTok.)”

The teenaged influencer felt very saddened with the bashing she received to the point that she no longer posts videos over TikTok or on her social media accounts due to the criticism.

Over Twitter, Kim Arda was trending, with people supporting the entertaine­r in what she does.

natanggap nya. Every single day she’s being laughed at from her looks, accent (Bisaya), pananamit, quality ng video, literally everything like srsly ppl?!? WTF is wrong with u?”

The “Yes I Do The Cooking Girl” showed on Instagram a fake account posing as her on TikTok with even more followers than her own, saying “Guys nakaka-frustrate na kinukuha ng fake account nato lahat ng uploads ko sa TikTok tas sya yung nakakakuha ng views at follow. Masakit sa akin kasi nag-e-effort ako tas ninanakaw lang. Kaya please guys, tulungan nyo akong mag report at ikalat sa friends nyong may TikTok ito. Please guys and thank you po. (Guys, it is frustratin­g that this poser account has taken my uploads and received all the views and follows. It is painful to make an effort only for someone to steal from you. So, please help me report this to TikTok.)”

Currently, Arda only uses TikTok, Facebook, Instagram and YouTube for her official accounts, as she confirmed in her video.

The influencer gained popularity over TikTok during the quarantine period for her funny dancing videos and vlogs over YouTube.
