An influencer who went around licking toilets as part of the viral “Coronavirus challenge”
TikTok challenge, has tested positive for COVID-19 in a shocking turn of events NOBODY
saw coming…
What’s up y’all, it’s Emile Ennis Jr. bringing you all the breaking news updates
here from my in-home Clevver studio and in case you didn’t catch the hint of sarcasm,
literally everybody saw this one coming.
For starters, we have TikTok star Ava Louise to thank for kicking off the newest viral
Internet challenge called the ‘Coronavirus challenge’ that involves licking toilet
seats.
Earlier this month Ava came under fire when she posted a video to social media licking
a toilet seat on an airplane.
In the now-deleted post, she attempted to spread awareness about sanitation, which seems
pretty ironic considering the content.
She said QUOTE, “Please RT this so people can know how to properly be sanitary on an
airplane.”
Pretty sure we’re good on the lecture about what not to do in an airplane bathroom, but
apparently this disturbing ‘challenge’ spread to others in more ways than one…
Another influencer with the handle @gayshawnmendes on Twitter, more commonly known by the name
Larz, took to Instagram to share a health update with his fans…
Besides sharing that he’s high as a kite off his meds, Larz also shared with fans that
he has been diagnosed with Coronavirus.
Any guesses as to why?
Well if you guessed it’s because he licked a toilet seat, then ding ding ding.
You are correct.
He, too, went in on a toilet seat as if it were a chocolate ice cream cone.
But speaking of ice cream, I should also add that this is the same “influencer” who
bragged about licking tubs of ice cream before putting them back in store freezers while
on Dr. Phil last year, and claimed he made “lots of money” off of his online following.
Last weekend and just days after Ava Louise’s video went viral, Larz also shared a video
to his own Twitter account where he recorded himself licking a toilet seat.
Like Ava Louise, Larz also captioned the photo, “RT to spread awareness for the coronavirus,”
and in came the backlash.
In fact, he received so much backlash from the post that his Twitter became suspended
within hours, and is still to this day.
Unlike Larz who wasn’t as lucky after his licking spree, Ava Louise didn’t contract
the virus, and wasn’t even phased by the scrutiny she received because obviously she’s
quote, “blonde, rich and skinny.”
And yes, those were actual words that came out of her mouth.
Ava recently went on Dr. Phil’s Zoom session to talk about her viral video… and when
asked “what the hell she was thinking” by Dr. Phil
she said,
OHH a sugar daddy’s private plane… makes it SOOO much more sanitary…
NOT!
She continued to say she thinks the media is lying about this entire virus and she bleached
it cause like “PEOPLE POOP on there.”
Okay let’s get back to Larz and his coronavirus challenge though!
As you can imagine, fans aren’t exactly sympathetic for Larz as many have taken to
social media to say that he pretty much had it coming.
One user attached a GIF of Kim Kardashian with the quote, “It’s what she deserves”
alongside a tweet that said, “Larz licked a toilet seat with a visible stain, called
it the coronavirus challenge, and is now hospitalized with COVID-19.
Natural selection had its way.”
Others are claiming that the main reason for Larz’ account suspension is due to the fact
that he’s been arrested for falsely claiming he tested positive.
Like this user who said, “So Larz the guy who licked the toilet seat, was just ARRESTED
for faking having COVOID-19.....literally what the f***”
We do want to note that this is a theory that has little to no evidence backing it, but
we did want to mention this… as it is part of the shocking turn of events!
It was recently reported that a Texas resident was also arrested for falsely claiming in
a social media post that he was infected and had tested positive at Tyler County Hospital.
Although news of Larz’ arrest isn’t officially confirmed, falsely claiming you’ve contracted
the virus can lead to an arrest for circulating a false report, according to the Tyler County
District Attorney's Office.
Honestly, I can’t say I’m really surprised by the ways people go about gaining attention
in 2020 after everything that’s happened.
But I’m curious to hear what you guys think about Larz’ diagnosis, if it’s true & If
reports are actually true, do you think his account suspension and arrest were well-deserved?
Let me know all your thoughts down here in the comments, and can we cancel this challenge?.
