Colleen Ballinger’s TikTok

I’m scrolling through TikTok and I see that Colleen Ballinger is doing a live post — I’m surprised because she hasn’t posted anything since she got canceled. I notice that she changed her profile picture. I click on it to see that she’s sitting on the floor of what looks to be my dad’s old living room. I know it’s not actually the same room, but I’m shocked at how she has the same exact furniture as we used to and it’s in the same layout. I recall how many times (in real life) Colleen has posted selfies of her wearing clothes that I also owned at the time and feel like this makes our weird similarities even crazier. I try to screenshot the picture, but a notification pops up that reads “This user has disabled screenshot abilities”. I figure that this is to avoid her getting more backlash on social media. I try to send it to Lauren Bohrer, but again, it won’t let me. I message Lauren to tell her to go look at Colleen’s profile and click on the picture. After I send the message, I go back to her profile and see that she already changed the picture again. I’m disappointed because I wanted someone who’d 1. recognize the furniture and 2. knows about my weird parallels to Collen to see it.
