The plan worked as she managed to generate over eight million views from the controversial storyline:

“Reposting my first video because it somehow got me 16.4 million views.”

She posted a clip with the famous scenarios:

“You think you can hurt me? My college boyfriend proposed to me at my graduation from Yale and said no because I wanted to pursue my career. Now it’s 10 years later, I didn’t achieve anything. I don’t have a job, I don’t have a home, I don’t have underwear. He’s engaged to a French Heiress, and I’m his mistress. Only tap dancing makes me feel better, and I might be carrying his child.”
