Thousands are now accusing her of buying the numbers. While she was approaching the massive milestone, last week it suddenly looked as though Charli wasn\u2019t going to reach it after all. Charli lost 1 million followers after fans called her \u201cungrateful\u201d for being such a huge star on the platform. In a video alongside James Charles and her family, Charli jokingly complained that she wasn\u2019t going to hit 100 million within a year of her getting her first million, after which James replied to her \u201cWas 95 million not enough for you?\u201d It resulted in a huge backlash and Charli suffered a wave of negative comments eventually resulting in a teary Instagram live where she addressed the criticism. Charli wasn\u2019t canceled forever though, as she quickly bounced back and hit her goalpost within a matter of days. But some people are suspicious that she has sprung back too quickly, and her comments on TikTok are covered in accusations that she bought the followers. Some have pointed to a video going viral that shows people sifting through the accounts that follow her, noticing that many of her new followers appear to be blank accounts that don\u2019t show that they\u2019re following Charli when you click on who they\u2019re following. Another TikToker noticed that Charli\u2019s follower count had unusual spikes, pointing out that \u201cYou can see that it happens every single minute at the 20-second mark\u2026that seems suspicious doesn\u2019t it?\u201d After these TikToks went viral, the top comments on Charli\u2019s recent TikToks all accuse her of buying her followers. In a Christmas-themed video with her family posted yesterday, one comment read \u201cOh look it\u2019s an Amazon box with followers inside.\u201d For now, it still seems as though the mass unfollowing was merely a bump in the road for TikTok\u2019s Queen. Neither Charli nor her family have responded to the claims.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Charli D\u2019Amelio accused of buying TikTok followers Instagram: Charli D&#8217;AmelioDespite hitting 100 million TikTok followers at the weekend, Charli D\u2019Amelio can\u2019t catch a break.
