Loren Gray Opens Up About Her Abuse And Shares What She Knows About Her Attacker

Today we're welcoming Loren Gray to the show. Loren became the most followed person on musical.ly (now known as TikTok) at the age of 13 years old, and has amassed a following of over 55 million on Instagram and TikTok. Today we're sitting down with Loren to discuss all things internet stardom: how she handled sudden fame at a young age, the lessons she's learned about friendships & why she likes to keep her circle small and emphasize quality over quantity when it comes to her friendships. We also discuss growing up in the age of the internet and she shares details into how her parents supported her career & provided her with space to grow as a young creator, while still monitoring and protecting her as their child. We discuss everything from parenting in the age of the internet & how some parents in Hollywood will take advantage of their famous children, to how the industry sexualizes young female creators and what it's like to be taken advantage of by the entertainment industry. We lastly get into the positive side of social media and how she cultivated a supportive community of over 55 million, how she's taking charge of her singing career, and what's coming up for her in the future.

Wydm??

[@KaliDurga108]

yea. its weird how she never describes the abuser, nor is the police involved. i dont believe her, its all clout.

[@TheSimsBiz]

@@KaliDurga108i was SA and no police were involved, that doesn’t necessarily mean it wasn’t true, it also happened right at the beginning of her being famous, she might not have even started posting yet. why assume someone’s lying about such a serious issue when you have really no reason behind those assumptions? do you need that validation that bad?

[@TheSimsBiz]

@@KaliDurga108oh also, not sure if you’ve been SA, but why should she have to describe the assaulter? what’s the point of that other than letting all of media know who it is, and possibly brining on trauma from having to remember that. plus, it was so long ago and such a traumatic experience that she may not even remember the small details like what he looked like. it’s kinda disturbing that you used those reasons as to why it’s fake. you should really be less judgy, especially to people you don’t know.
