Addison Rae & Avani Gregg reveal \u201cscary\u201d experiences with TikTok fans YouTube: Addison Rae, Avani GreggAddison Rae and Avani Gregg are two of TikTok\u2019s biggest content creators \u2014 but life as a social media star comes with major drawbacks that can lead to seriously scary situations. While being a top-tier influencer might seem like a career path paved in sunshine and roses, being an uber-popular internet personality can give some fans the wrong idea about exactly how much you\u2019re willing to share about your personal life. A slew of influencers have shared wild stories about fans (and haters) who took things too far. From a fan literally breaking into David Dobrik\u2019s bedroom to a stalker who moved within walking distance of streamer Sweet Anita\u2019s home, things can get seriously hairy for internet celebrities. This is no different for TikTokers, it seems, as revealed by Addison Rae and Avani Gregg on a May 13 episode of the \u2018That Was Fun?\u2019 podcast. The two shared their wildest experiences with fans and the general public, and both influencers had some hair-raising tales to tell. One of the most frightening stories came from Avani. She claimed that she\u2019d been followed from the Hype House to her new apartment by two older men, who managed to slip into her complex\u2019s parking garage and even stood in front of the elevator so that she was completely cornered.

That\u2019s not all; Rae has also been bullied by supposed \u201cfans\u201d who wanted to take a photo with her, claiming that one \u201cfan\u201d had flamed Rae in the comments after uploading a pic with the star to the net. (Topic begins at 10 minutes) While Rae surmised that these instances are likely due to their status as influencers who appear to share \u201ceverything\u201d with their fans, it still points to a seriously scary trend that more and more content creators face as the social media age blossoms.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
