Is Ellie Ellis an industry plant? You've seen her on your FYP: the slightly awkward girl with long brown hair and a British accent, putting on makeup and chatting about her day. Simple, endearing, but not necessarily original. And yet... she's gained over 700k followers this week. We investigate infamous industry plants to determine whether the shoe fits. 

And why "ow my eyes hurt" is a trending search on Tik Tok (it's Carrie Bradshaw's fault) (nah just kidding it's the moon or something). Maybe our eyes are finally turning square omggg.

Also the famous twin influencers whose partners didn't sign up for this sh*t: we're talking about Acquired Style. Filming your husband is one thing, but filming him looking like he hates you? A veeeery strange marketing strategy that may be fuelled by twin rivalry. 

Lol we also played 'guess the cancelled celebrity'. The internet is your oyster, HIGHLY recommend. 

And for the cherry on top, some worst first date ideas inspired by a viral video. Unfortunately we have an abundance of nightmare dating stories so we simply HAVE to share them. 

Strap in superstars, we'll see you in the comments xx

THE END BITS
