The adverse effects of social media have once again been highlighted as a young TikToker finds herself in the middle of a mess.
The 16-year-old influencer, Mikayla Campinos, has attracted 3.2 million subscribers on TokTok and 362k Instagram followers with fashion and beauty content. As you can judge from the numbers, she is quite a popular name in the influencer realm.
However, her popularity has attracted nefarious people, who have released an explicit video of Mikayla without her consent. Mikayla has suddenly become an object of ridicule as people have started saying she isn’t as innocent as she looks, ignoring the fact that she is a victim.
Mikayla Campinos Pickle Account Video
An explicit video of Mikayla Campinos was released online from an anonymous source. The video has been named “Mikayla Campinos Pickle Account Video” and has become viral amongst netizens.
The viral video was posted without Campinos’ permission and is still circulating online. Many social media account holders have posted clips from the video, further spreading it and harming the teen in the process.
While some YouTubers and TikTokers have shown support to the underaged girl due to the violation of her privacy, others are content with downgrading her. Amidst all this, a news publication announced that Mikayla Campinos is dead.
Is Mikayla Campinos Dead?
HOLR, a news publication, first spread the news of Mikayla Campinos’ demise. However, the announcement was made without any source or confirmation, so it is likely to be a death hoax.
No official sources have confirmed the death of Campinos. Her social media accounts and management are both silent. If something had indeed happened to an influencer with a following as big as Mikayla’s, then an official notice would have been released.
Since there is no official announcement, it is best not to believe in Campinos’ death hoax. The silence that has befallen her accounts can easily be explained as the aftermath of the leaked video. Her exposure might be limited until the nasty comments and rumors can slide.
The Role of Death Hoax
Death Hoaxes have been on the rise lately and have targeted many celebs, big and small. Even historical personalities could not escape from it. Mikayla Campinos is likely just another victim of the death hoax.
The spreaders of a death hoax are only after momentary clout and never think twice about the anxiety and hurt it could cause to the general public and loved ones of the victims. Sometimes it takes a simple Google search to uncover fake death news, and other times it leads to a state of complete confusion.
Since Mikayla’s management has remained mum on the issue, fans have yet to receive a confirmation, thus leading to more harmful speculation.
Please sit tight until reliable information can be found on the matter, and comment down below if you think the spread of an underage girl’s explicit video should be stopped.

They shouldn’t have been trusted and Mikayla should press charges against the person who posted the video, she is underage so she can press charges and they could go to jail.
