It has been just more than a year since Gia Duddy attended the NFL Draft next to former Penn State quarterback Will Levis.
It was a moment that unquestionably changed her life because she blew up on social media, and the Penn State grad’s popularity took off. A lot of things have changed since then, though.
Duddy and Levis are reportedly no longer dating, and while she has continued to shine as an influencer, she has also had to deal with the toxicity that is prevalent on social media, too.
And it appears she has had just about enough of that. Earlier this month, Duddy announced on TikTok that she is shutting down her main account and transitioning to a new one. Her reason for doing so was both understandable and sad.
“I have an announcement so we are just going to get right into it,” she said in a video posted there. “It’s the end of omgiaaa (her account). I created this account at first to be a safe-space for me and the girlies, and if I’m being honest it has become anything but that.
“It has become a really toxic male environment that I don’t stand for,” she continued. “It makes me super uncomfortable, and yeah, just not a safe-space anymore. So, we are relocating. I made a brand new TikTok account. It is just going to be my name, Gia Duddy, and I’m going to be posting all my beauty, all my fashion, all my hair-related content that you guys know me for on that account. I’m super-excited to get it started and build it with you guys, and I’m going to be active there.”
Duddy promised to do a giveaway soon on that account, but there is one big rule for those looking to follow.
“This account is for the girlies,” she said. “Boys don’t do it. Just don’t do it. You’re going to get blocked. Girls only. It’s girls only. I’m sorry.”
It is a big move for Duddy as her old TikTok account currently has more than 551,000 followers. So, for an influencer, a cleanse and move to a new account is a risk. She is still posting some clips on that old account, and directing users to the new account, which is currently approaching 20,000 followers.
