Charli D'Amelio says she has 'lost the passion' for TikTok

• TikTok's biggest star Charli D'Amelio has said she's grown tired of posting.
• She said she has "lost the passion" for TikTok because of the negativity.
• D'Amelio discussed the situation with her sister Dixie D'Amelio on their podcast "2 Chix."

TikTok's biggest star Charli D'Amelio, who has 109 million followers on the app, said she has "lost the passion" for posting videos.

On the podcast that she co-hosts with her sister Dixie D'Amelio, called "2 Chix," D'Amelio said she was feeling the impact of negativity. While Dixie is usually present, this episode was hosted by Charli alone.

"It's extremely difficult to continue posting on a platform where the people that are watching your videos don't actually like, want to see you and a lot of the feedback is negative. It's very hard to do that," D'Amelio said. "And I just kind of lost the passion for it because it used to be really fun for me."

She said having such a large audience means everyone is "ready to jump and criticize" whenever she makes a mistake or "something is taken the wrong way."

"That's why I don't speak as much besides the podcast, because it's scary," she said.

In November, D'Amelio received backlash and lost a million followers because viewers thought she was rude and ungrateful for the food a professional chef cooked for her family. The video was posted on the D'Amelio's family channel and was flooded with comments calling the sisters "bratty" and "entitled."

In February, she was also mocked when she saw the hashtag #HereForCharli trending and thanked fans for their support. She quickly deleted it when people notified her it was meant for Charli XCX following the death of her friend, musician Sophie.

D'Amelio constantly faces negative comments about her appearance and has pleaded with her followers more than once to stop talking about her body. Despite being just 16 years old, she's told she's too thin, gaining weight, and objectified in every way possible.

On her podcast, D'Amelio said she's working on finding the love for making content on TikTok again, and she wouldn't stop posting for the people who dislike her if she's still helping the ones who love her.

"I don't make content to make other people feel a certain way," she said.

"At the end of the day, I make content because it's a fun thing that I get to do, and if people enjoy it, and they wanna be on Team Charli and support me, that's great. But once again, that's up to them."
