Ellie Zeiler defends Charli D\u2019Amelio after TikTok copying accusations Instagram: elliezeiler, charlidamelioTikTok star Ellie Zeiler has come under fire in recent times over accusations of \u201ccopying\u201d Charli D\u2019Amelio \u2013 but now the shoe is on the other foot, and she\u2019s jumped to D\u2019Amelio\u2019s defense. Zeiler herself has 3.4m followers on TikTok at the time of writing, so she doesn\u2019t exactly need to copy others to maintain popularity on the platform. However, she has been frequently accused of imitating D\u2019Amelio, especially as the two look very alike. She was even accused of copying Hype House\u2019s Avani at one point, due to a TikTok that seemed similar to one of Avani\u2019s. Now, though, Ellie has responded to a fan who tried to imply that Charli was doing a bit more than take inspiration from her \u2013 and she wasn\u2019t having any of it. After Zeiler made a quirky dance video with the trending \u201cSweet and Salty\u201d sound on TikTok, D\u2019Amelio created one very similar in style, taking advantage of the trend as is commonplace on almost every social media platform. Obviously, with the ongoing controversy that seems to follow the two, people immediately noticed that Charli had posted her TikTok after Zeiler did, and started to accuse her of copying her \u201clookalike.\u201d Zeiler was quick to dispel the negativity, though, simply responding to the fan that \u201cit\u2019s a trend\u201d and \u201cnot that deep.\u201d It makes a change to see Ellie Zeiler on the other foot, but nonetheless, she probably handled it in the best way possible. D\u2019Amelio herself hasn\u2019t commented publicly on any drama that might exist around the similarities between herself and Zeiler, despite fans regularly seeming to pit them against each other. It\u2019s good, though, to see Ellie trying to remove the two from each other and acknowledge that it simply doesn\u2019t matter who got on a trend first. After all, it is only a TikTok video.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
