Easterling also delved into how she grounds herself while many of her TikToker peers are “caught up in negative headlines.”

“This is difficult,” she said. “I’ve definitely had my share of headlines.”

“I receive a lot of hate and for the craziest things,” she continued. “People seem to hate me for being too nice… they just hate it. People are actually so upset about me smiling all the time … No, literally, if I laugh in a TikTok, people are like, ‘Why does she have to laugh about everything she does?'”

“It’s like, if I feel this way, I want someone else to feel it, too. If people are being hateful, I just wish the best for them, you know?” she added.

As for whether she’s ever thought about leaving TikTok, Easterling said, “No, I think as long as it’s a thing, I’ll be on it.”
