We contacted more than 20 top-tier Instagram and TikTok influencers to see if they would make a statement on abortion rights in the United States.
‘s podcast about internet culture cohosted by Brittany Spanos and Ej Dickson, we contacted more than 20 top-tier Instagram and TikTok influencers to see if they would make a statement on abortion rights in the United States. The list, culled together from top 20 lists onand Hollywood Branded, included the names of such luminaries as Charli D’Amelio, Addison Rae, Bella Poarch, David Dobrik, Emma Chamberlain, and PewDiePie.
Of the influencers we reached out to, only a couple got back to us: the PR representative for makeup artist turned fitness influencer Bretman Rock. “We’ll need to politely pass at this time due to him being unavailable on set for his MTV show and not doing any press at the moment,” the representative for Rock said. A representative for Josh Richards, a former member of the Tiktok collab house Sway House who is now the chief strategy officer of Tiktok competitor Triller, also declined to comment. None of the other influencers we reached out to even responded to our request for comment.
In some respects, it’s not unusual that influencers would bow out of the discussion over an issue as contentious as the reproductive rights debate. Top-tier influencers partner with high-end brands on collabs, often commanding as much as six figures for a single sponsored post, and many likely harbor concerns about alienating members of their audience.
This week on DLTF, Spanos and Dickson also discuss Jack Harlow being horny for Dua Lipa, Chet Hanks’s latest shameful appearance in the viral news cycle, and a himbo who keeps an eel pit in his basement.
