If you are an active social media user, you must’ve come across the journey of Gypsy Rose Blanchard from a convict to an internet sensation. In 2015, the 33-year-old faced a 10-year prison sentence for orchestrating the murder of her mother, Dee Dee Blanchard, with the help of her internet boyfriend, Nicholas Godejohn.
However, after serving eight years behind bars, the notorious celebrity was paroled in December 2023. Shortly after her discharge, the internet began praising the ex-convict. So much so that she became a social media sensation overnight. However, it appears just like every hyped celebrity, Gypsy Rose is now facing the wrath of her own dear fans.
Gypsy Rose Blanchard Fans Troll Her For Using ‘Influencer’ In Her TikTok Bio
The Life After Lockup star is recognized for being a Munchhausen-by-proxy syndrome survivor. During her young years, Gypsy Rose Blanchard was subject to unnecessary medical treatment as well as mental and physical abuse at the hands of her mother. Dee Dee also forced her daughter to sit in a wheelchair and use a feeding tube.
A lifetime of medical and physical abuse smothered the victim, leading to the infamous murder of Dee Dee Blanchard. After enduring years-long misery, Gypsy now focuses on new beginnings. Since her prison release, she has frequently detailed her eyebrow-raising years under the care of her mother in interviews. She has also made several TV appearances, such as Gypsy Rose: Life After Lock Up, Gypy’s Revenge, and more.
Apart from this, Gypsy is also an author with her memoir, My Time to Stand, set to release in January 2025. With such a long list of media interactions, Gypsy gained overnight fame, establishing her position as a celebrity. However, recently a TikToker, @Alexa_bored11, expressed her distaste over Gypsy Rose’s TikTok bio, which reads: “Influencer, Author, Public Figure.”
The user said, “Plz tell me why I’m just now seeing what Gypsy’s TikTok bio says.” In the caption, the netizen described the situation as “cringe.” The video has over 36K likes and counting, with many users agreeing with the sentiment. “Who is she influencing!?” one netizen wrote. Some trolls even called Gypsy out for being delusional, while others frowned upon her self-proclaimed “Public Figure” statement.
However, some fans defended the star. One comment read, “Do you want it to say ‘ex murderer.'” Another fan noted that Gypsy has over 20 million followers, indicating her status as a social media influencer.
