Trisha Paytas being called out- https://junkee.com/trisha-paytas-

cancelled/279599 

Trisha Paytas is a social media star who has caused many controversies over the past few

years. Even though she has many fans on Instagram, Twitter, TikTok and Youtube, she still has
many flaws that have been uncovered during her career. Ever since 2007 when Trisha first

started her career, she has been called out for numerous problems. 

In 2011, she had used the N-word while singing the song and caused widespread outrage

on social media. In 2019, she came out as transgender although she was still a woman. She had

posted a  “coming out” video on her youtube channel that caused offense to multiple people.

Back in 2020, Trisha had spoken out about the N-word and how she thinks the word is offensive

and rude, while some of her fans have called her out for using the slur back in 2011. Along with

these other troubling flaws, Trisha has claimed that she has been diagnosed with Dissociative

Personality Disorder (DID). She posted on her Youtube channel about her diagnosis and how she

can switch personalities. Once again her fans have called her out for harmfully misleading

information and how she endorsed her offensive stigmas about the disorder. 

Trisha has claimed that she has been attending therapy and since deleted most of her

offensive and controversial Youtube videos. Even though she has deleted those Youtube videos,

she is still posting on Twitter, Instagram and TikTok. She has still been posting videos and

tweets about other creators which has led to fueds. Her fans have been turning on her and

‘canceling’ her due to all the problematic content that she has been posting. Trisha has been

called out for a variety of things but yet she still decides to post her usual content on her social

media platforms.
