Who is Eugenia Cooney? Influencer at the center of viral death hoax after AI summary and post from neighbor
(Image via @eugeniacooney/Instagram) The internet can't stop talking about Eugenia Cooney, but not for the usual reasons. A bizarre and chilling rumor claiming the longtime influencer had 'passed away' exploded across social media this week, after a self-identified neighbor alleged they saw a body bag being taken from her home. With no official statement and barely any recent activity on her socials, the rumor mill spun out of control, and fast. Claims of Eugenia Cooney's passing stir confusion online The story began when a Facebook user posted that they saw an ambulance outside Cooney's home 'around 11 PM' on July 12. The neighbour added that a 'body in a bag' was brought out. This post alone was enough to set Reddit threads and X (formerly Twitter) timelines ablaze, with many users questioning whether the news was true or just another disturbing rumor. undefined Adding to the chaos, screenshots emerged of Meta AI apparently confirming her death, citing 'acute multi-organ dysfunction' and mentioning she had been under 'specialized care for longstanding health conditions.' The AI-generated post described Eugenia as someone who 'remained a prominent figure' despite public concern over her health. While Meta AI's comment has since been removed or flagged for error, the combination of digital confusion and real-world witness claims sent social media into a spiral. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo Who Is Eugenia Cooney? Eugenia Cooney is an influencer, YouTuber, and gothic cosplayer. She currently has over 2 million subscribers and a deeply loyal, though often concerned, fanbase. But her internet fame has always been entangled with one thing: concern for her health. Eugenia Cooney passed away?!  Some remembered the 2015 petition that tried to ban her from YouTube, alleging she promoted harmful beauty standards. Others recalled her Twitch ban in 2022 and TikTok restrictions after increasing backlash. Last livestream fuels concerns before silence In May 2025, Eugenia went live on her usual setup—bright lighting, Hello Kitty decor, and upbeat music. But midway through the stream, she appeared visibly unwell. At one point, she gagged and abruptly ended the broadcast, telling viewers she 'wasn't feeling great.' That was the last fans saw of her in real time. Fans TERRIFIED After YouTube Star Eugenia Cooney COLLAPSES on Livestream Since then, only two videos have been posted on her accounts. Many believe the clips were pre-recorded. The lack of updates, combined with growing AI misinformation and neighbor rumors, created the perfect storm for a viral hoax. There's no official word from the YouTuber or her family yet At the time of writing, there has been no official confirmation from Eugenia's family, management, or platforms. Longtime friend and beauty influencer Jeffree Star commented vaguely that she was 'clearly not okay,' but refrained from sharing more. That silence has only made fans more uneasy. Many followers have pointed out how Eugenia's physical appearance and visible health issues have been an ongoing concern for years. Catch Rani Rampal's inspiring story on Game On, Episode 4.

Hello Kitty becomes a suntanned beach babe for new magazine freebies in Japan
Kitty chan enjoys a hot girl summer for a limited time. Hello Kitty is always hard at work throughout the year, jumping from one collaboration to the next and earning herself the unofficial title of hardest-working cat in Japan. Now, the beloved Sanrio character is combining work with play for a new appearance with sweet magazine, where she can be seen showing off her suntan in a colourful bikini. The suntanned, or 'sun-kissed', Hello Kitty is said to have the aesthetic of a 'Heisei gal' or 'Heisei gyaru' as it's known in Japanese. This term refers to the fashion subculture that flourished in Japan during the Heisei era (1989–2019), where young women — and sometimes men — rebelled against traditional beauty norms with flashy nail art, micro miniskirts, bleached or lightened hair, and suntanned skin. Hello Kitty keeps the Heisei gal aesthetic to a minimum for maximum appeal here, giving hot girl beach vibes to a collection of bonus items that come free with the regular and special editions of the sweet issue released on 11 July. Those who purchase the regular edition for 1,670 yen (US$11.31) will receive the 'Sun-Kissed Hello Kitty Plush Pouch Charm & Three-Piece Sticker Set', which contains the two items below. For fans of suntanned Kitty-chan, this is an irresistible, deluxe combo you won't find anywhere else, with the star item being the adorable plush pouch shaped like her face, complete with suntan. A hibiscus accessory adds extra colour to her summer look while amping up the kawaii factor, and it even comes with a pink carabiner and phone attachment so you can attach the pouch directly to your bag or smartphone. The plush pouch is wonderfully fluffy, super soft to the touch and large enough to sit in your palm, making it quite the statement item. ▼ Kitty chan might be enjoying a beach vacation but she's still hard at work, holding on to your small items for you. Moving on to the stickers, there are three in the set, each featuring a suntanned Hello Kitty. In one sticker she's sporting what looks to be a frangipani, in another she's walking with a surfboard under her arm, and in the other she's wearing heart-shaped sunglasses and a frilly white bikini, with three bows on her head and a drink by her side with a bow-adorned straw. The stickers have a sparkly, holographic sheen that's perfect for blinging out your smartphone, just like the gyaru did with their flip phones back in the day. Lovers of the gyaru look will fall in love with these items, but there's one more product to collect — the 'Sun-Kissed Hello Kitty Jumbo Bikini Tote', which comes with the special edition of the magazine for 1,720 yen. This is a total eye-catcher, with a bold print of Hello Kitty in a bikini with a surfboard in hand — an image that's impossible to ignore. Measuring in at approximately 41 centimetres (16 inches) in length and 44 centimetres in width, the bag is made from a high-quality material that's delightfully soft to touch. It also has a wide gusset and surprisingly large capacity that can easily fit a few A4-sized notebooks or even a laptop. ▼ You can fit three two-litre (67.6-ounce) bottles in there as well. There are no fastening clasps to get in the way so you have easy access to the contents, making it especially useful for holding beach towels, swimsuits, and other beach necessities. Simply carrying it around will make you start dreaming of summer holidays, filling you with a wanderlust for seaside getaways. The only problem is deciding which items to choose, but with the cost of both magazines totaling 3,390 yen, Hello Kitty fans can easily purchase both, for the ultimate in suntanned Sanrio cuteness.

Only those with the very best eyesight can spot the kitten hiding in the leaves
A brain teaser posted on Reddit has left most people stumped as they struggled to find the feline - but can you spot the tiny kitten hiding among the leaves in the picture? Stimulating your brain is widely recognised as a way to boost cognitive function, improve memory, and sharpen focus and concentration. Some even suggest that regular mental exercises could postpone the onset of dementia symptoms. Many people turn to brain teasers and puzzles to keep their grey matter ticking over, and it's believed that adding a time constraint can enhance the benefits even more. Not only are brain teasers entertaining – they're an excellent means of engaging your mind and encouraging lateral thinking. The latest brain teaser to baffle the internet is a real head-scratcher, challenging even those with eagle eyes. Hidden within an image full of leaves is a tiny kitten waiting to be discovered. The challenge claims that only individuals with a high IQ can spot all the hidden cats in this picture. After being posted on Reddit, the image has left many scratching their heads, unable to locate the elusive kitty. A few sharp-eyed users have succeeded, but it appears to be a rare feat. Why not set a timer and see how quickly you can find the kitten? Be warned, though – it's not easy. Think you're up to the task? Get set and go! Have you spotted it? Well done if so! If you're still searching, one user offered a helpful hint: "Look for the other eye among black fur!" Another provided a more precise tip: "Go to slightly left of the middle and keep going down until you see the eyes. Once you see it it's impossible to miss. Hello Kitty!". Reflecting on the image, one individual commented: "Human visual perception is weird. After scanning, I was able to locate the aberration in the leaves reasonably quickly, but it took a few seconds of processing to actually see and orient the cat. It's neat to see survival instincts at work – my brain could figure out 'something's wrong' faster than it could discern exactly what."
