Addison Rae under fire for appearing in Vogue Instagram video

TikTok star Addison Rae is being criticized after she appeared in an episode of ‘7Days7Looks’ on Vogue’s Instagram page, with some calling it “embarrassing.”

Addison Rae is one of TikTok’s biggest stars, going from ordinary teen to viral star in the space of months. With almost 80 million followers on the platform, she sits as the second most followed person on the entire app, just behind Charli D’Amelio.

While she has experienced a huge range of opportunities as an influencer, her presence in the public eye has earned her a substantial amount of hate.

Thanks to TikTok’s insane popularity, stars from the app are appearing more and more in mainstream media — but not everyone’s happy about it.
