Young woman receives backlash for stating she’s “too pretty” to work the rest of her life. But Check comments for People responses.
Her TikTok account is filled with photos and videos of her seemingly ‘lavish’ lifestyle and one of her videos in which she claimed she’s “too pretty” to work caused a stir on the social media.
Meet Lucy Welcher, an influencer now dubbed “shallow” and “entitled” by the online community.
The video in question, which has since been deleted, was captioned: “Not my thing [laughing emoji] #working #scam.”
In it, she could be heard saying, “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!”
Not surprisingly, the nine-second long clip went viral prompting people to question her statement. Did she suggest that employment is only for less attractive people?
@lucywelcher That’s so unfair. What do I do im soo mad😔 #failingschool
People slammed her and were quick to comment on her video. “Boy I wish I had your confidence, the same confidence to feel like I’m better looking than I actually am. God you people are so shallow and in love with yourselves,” one person wrote.
“Someone’s entitled,” another blasted. “I hope you get humbled girl, you need it. Looks have nothing to do with working and it’s sad you have that mentality.”
A third sniped, “How about trying to be an adult instead of a privileged princess expecting life to be handed to you?”
Lucy answered back with yet another video in which she sarcastically went through some of the things written about her online. Among the rest, she denied owning “class vehicles” or a mansion, “because my house is literally falling apart.”
Apparently, the TikToker found the attention entertaining, so days later she made a remake of her viral video in which she repeated the script from her deleted “I’m too pretty” video.
This time, however, most of her followers found it funny and said they understood her earlier message was intended to be humorous and not offend anyone.
“You’re 100% correct, getting up early going to work will spoil your good looks,” one person wrote.
“This video and the first one gave me life,” another follower added.
“You are too pretty for that. Those are just the hard cold facts of life,” a third commented.
