Some background for those of you who have no idea what's going on...

Source - Charli D’Amelio has hit a major snag on her way to 100 million followers.

The 16-year-old TikTok star — who boasts the highest follower count on the popular social media platform — appears to be the latest celebrity to be canceled. The D’Amelio family posted a video to their YouTube channel Monday that went viral for depicting a cringeworthy dinner-table disagreement with her parents, Marc and Heidi, her sister, Dixie, fellow TikToker James Charles and personal chef Aaron May.

The video, the first in a series called “Dinner With the D’Amelios,” contains a scene where May is explaining the background of the dish he has served, which includes snails.

“It’s classic paella, and it’s actually an omen of good luck and fortune,” he says to the D’Amelio family, who reside in Norwalk, Connecticut. “Liars,” Charli scoffs, with arms crossed.

Dixie — who has 43.8 million followers of her own — tries the snail, then convulses, gags and runs outside to vomit in front of May. “I threw up; that was not good,” the 19-year-old says.

Charli then asks the chef if she could have “dino nuggets” instead.

Another scene in the video features Charli complaining that she hadn’t hit 100 million quickly enough. She had 99.5 million followers as of Wednesday — and is now down to 98.7 million as of Thursday. She had been gaining followers at a rate of hundreds of thousands per day for her iconic TikTok dances prior to this drama.

God forbid a sixteen year old doesn't like escargot. Grow up, internet. Charli has yet to respond to the drama but her older sister, Dixie, did…

^^Couldn't agree more. Barstool Sports stands with Charli and Dixie D'Amelio, do you????
