Who is Natalie Reynolds? Influencer viral for crying outside TikTok HQ in Los Angeles
A video of influencer c crying outside TikTok's headquarters has gone viral, sparking debate across the internet. Reynolds is a 26-year-old content creator based in Los Angeles. She became popular on TikTok in 2022 with lip-sync and dance videos. Over time, she shifted to prank skits, relationship comedy, and flirty banter with her boyfriend, Zack (real name: Zachary Huelsman). Their playful clips often showed up on users' 'For You' pages. Reynolds has also grown her audience outside of TikTok, she has over 5.5 million YouTube subscribers, around 133,000 Instagram followers and more than 33,000 followers on Kick, where she now livestreams. Also Read: TikToker Khabane 'Khaby' Lame arrested by ICE in Las Vegas? What we know On June 9, a video posted on X (formerly Twitter) showed Reynolds in tears outside TikTok's offices. In the clip, she's on the phone, visibly upset, asking to be let inside. According to online reports, her TikTok account had been banned, and she was trying to get it back. Some viewers sympathized with her. Others questioned whether it was a real emotional moment or a stunt. So far, neither TikTok nor Reynolds has said why her account was banned. But many online think it may be linked to a controversial video she posted in May. Last month, Reynolds came under fire for a prank video filmed at Lady Bird Lake in Austin, Texas. In the video, she reportedly offered a homeless woman $20 to jump into the lake. The woman did not know how to swim. Reynolds told her it was part of a 'scavenger hunt' and promised to jump in too—but never did. After the woman entered the water, she shouted that she couldn't swim, only float. A firetruck later arrived, but Reynolds and her group had already left. Viewers were angry and called for legal action. Reynolds later posted follow-up content, showing little concern about the backlash. Even with her TikTok ban, Reynolds is still active on other platforms. She continues to stream on Kick and posts on Instagram and YouTube. Her recent actions have raised questions about how influencers should be held accountable online—and what role platforms should play. Whether Natalie Reynolds bounces back or fades out, one thing is clear: the internet is paying attention.

Govinda's wife Sunita Ahuja opens up on life as a star wife, says Govinda was away during both her deliveries: 'Aapko patthar ka dil banana padta hai'
Sunita Ahuja, wife of Bollywood icon Govinda , shared rare insights into the emotional challenges of being married to a film star. Opening up about the early years of her marriage, Sunita said, 'Ek hero ki biwi hona, aapko patthar ka dil banana padta hai. Aap dekhte ho hero humare se zyada to heroine logo ke saath rehte hain.' She pointed out that the nature of an actor's job often requires them to spend more time with co-stars than with their own family, and learning to manage that reality was essential for her emotional well-being. Govinda was away for shoots during both her deliveries Reflecting on the time when she became a mother, Sunita revealed that Govinda was mostly away on outdoor shoots when she delivered both their children — daughter Tina and son Yashvardhan. 'Jab delivery hua mera, tab Govinda zyada tar outdoor mein hi rehte the. Main to apni mother-in-law ke saath rehti thi. Chhote baby ko leke to aap travel nahi kar sakte ho,' she recalled during a recent interview with Instant Bollywood. Sunita lived with her mother-in-law for over a decade and credits her with shaping her understanding of family life. 'She always taught me good things. Govinda loved his mom dearly out of fear, and he never did anything wrong in his life,' she said with pride. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Simple.

Not Deepika Padukone Or Alia Bhatt, THIS Actor has The Best PR According To Karan Johar
Last Updated: Karan Johar says Ranbir Kapoor has the best PR in Bollywood — despite having no team or social media. In the high-stakes world of Bollywood, where perception shapes careers, public relations (PR) is a powerful tool for staying relevant. Stars often lean on strategic PR campaigns to craft their image, manage controversies, and keep fans engaged. Newcomers and industry scions alike face scrutiny for using calculated PR moves to hog the limelight, sometimes even overshadowing peers. Take Veer Pahariya's recent Bollywood debut, where his viral dance move sparked buzz—many wondered if it was fueled by a cleverly orchestrated PR plan, whether for praise or critique. So, who rules the PR game in Bollywood? Filmmaker Karan Johar, in a recent discussion with Bollywood Hungama, dropped a surprising name, spotlighting an actor who dominates without a traditional PR playbook. 'I think everyone kind of understands it well. But can I say who I think is the best star who has managed to stay away from social media, from the arc light and still emerged as a massive superstar — Ranbir Kapoor. He doesn't have a PR team, he therefore has the best PR team," said Karan. While stars like Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone, Alia Bhatt, and Salman Khan dominate social media with millions of followers, Ranbir Kapoor steers clear of public platforms entirely. Though he once admitted to lurking on Instagram through a secret account, he maintains no official presence on the photo-sharing app as of now. On the work front, Ranbir Kapoor is currently shooting for Love And War with Vicky Kaushal and Alia Bhatt. He also has Ramayana with Sai Pallavi in his kitty. It will be releasing in two parts. In the meantime, Karan is focused on directing an action film next, following the success of his 2023 romantic comedy Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani. As a producer, his slate includes Dhadak 2, Naagzilla, and Tu Meri Main Tera. But for fans of epic sagas, Takht may still reign someday—just not yet. First Published:
