Corinna Kopf Has Weighed In On The Anna Paul And Mikaela Testa Beef
Please be advised this article contains allegations between two opposing parties, full details of this situation have yet to be proven true. Warning: This article deals with themes of grooming and sexual exploitation that may be triggering for some readers. The Anna Paul and Mikaela Testa feud just picked up an expansion pack in the form of new allegations from American influencer, Corinna Kopf. Corinna is best known for her time in David Dobrik's Vlog Squad, at the height of its popularity in the mid 2010s. She continues her work as influencer and content creator across a number of platforms including Instagram, Twitch and OnlyFans. Following a string of Instagram Stories shared by Mikaela about Drake's controversial outfit choice at his Brisbane show the previous evening, Corinna made a series of accusations about the Aussie influencer's "true" character on her own account. The American creator also highlighted Mikaela's role in the breakdown of her own personal relationships. Mikaela responded, describing Corinna as "a parasocial fan for Anna and Atis [Paul]" — and also alleged that she orchestrated a plot to have her [Mikaela] banned from Instagram. But it just keeps on going — with Mikaela sharing more about how they became friends in the first place. One of the internet's first glimpses into their friendship was in early 2024 when Mikaela made a video captioned, "I love my rich bestie 🥰". @mikaelatesta i love having a rich bestie 🥰 ♬ original sound - Mikaela Testa TikTok @mikaelatesta / Via More Stories from Mikaela allude to their relationship going beyond friendship into something, allegedly, more sinister. Mikaela seemingly boils Corinna's sudden outburst online down to the posts she made about Drake — who Corinna was previously linked to in 2023. According to her, this is why the American influencer decided to end "her silence" and speak up on Mikaela's behaviour. Drake says he might massage Corinna Kopf's feet on live.👀😭 — Hip Hop Ties (@HipHopTiesMedia) June 2, 2023 Twitter: @HipHopTiesMedia Hold onto your coat tails and Cartier love bracelets though, it's not done yet — Corinna disputed the claims with a series of blacked-out videos, featuring just her voice. Here's what she had to say: Corinna denied claims that she tried to have Mikaela's Instagram banned out of jealousy, saying, "If I was so envious of someone blowing up and trying to get their Instagram banned why on earth would I tag her in every single one of my Snapchats. Over and over again over a four week span, blowing her Snapchat following up to 750,000 followers. That just doesn't really add up to me." Via her voiceover, she also explained that she'd always felt this way about Mikaela, and even discussed it with others, who apparently agreed that she was "a pathological liar". She also denied Mikaela's accusation that she's a "parasocial fan" saying that after she'd heard about the allegations made against Anna Paul, she should've distanced herself from Mikaela sooner. Her final story urged everyone to pay attention to Mikaela's content — "The proof is in the pudding". Although so much of the story is completely shrouded in mystery, there's no denying how its captivated Aussies (and the world). We will be seated when more unfolds. Mikaela has since deleted her Instagram Stories calling out Corinna — but we'll keep you posted with any new updates.

Jeff Wittek shares update on recovery after latest surgery from 2021 Dobrik accident
YouTube star Jeff Wittek has opened up about his ongoing recovery after undergoing what he calls his "biggest surgery yet." The influencer, known for his Jeff's Barbershop interview series, suffered a severe eye injury in 2021 when a stunt involving David Dobrik's Vlog Squad went wrong. The accident occurred when Dobrik swung Wittek around on an excavator, leading to a serious collision that nearly cost him his vision. Following years of medical procedures and a public fallout with Dobrik, Wittek recently told Dexerto that his latest surgery was his most significant yet, delaying projects like an upcoming movie shoot. 'I wish I had better news, but this last surgery was the biggest one yet," Wittek said. "I still can't drive myself, but I'm getting there. Hopefully, I'll be 100% ready for the tour this spring." Despite ongoing recovery challenges, Wittek remains focused on his career, including his podcast Jeff FM and the launch of his first physical Jeff's Barbershop location in New York. He emphasized the importance of mindset in overcoming obstacles, stating that fitness and staying busy help him maintain a positive outlook. With a live tour ahead and Jeff's Barbershop evolving, Wittek is determined to make a full comeback. "Giving up isn't an option—I've put everything into this, so it's either make it big or die trying."
