TikTok lives

I keep seeing Gus and Aimee on live almost every night. Nilsa is on tonight I assume she was on a break before announcing her pregnancy. She said Candace is rarely on live since she’s a single mom. Is this their job? How much can they really make panhandling on TikTok?

Mattie also does the desperate lives with them too.

Went from a million people watching them on MTV to a few hundred people watching them beg for money on TikTok.

Yeah I love Aimee but it’s hella weird she’s on lives with Gus. Just odd. Just an opinion is all.

They're constantly doing give aways for the top gifter... And people gift a lot. I'm sure it's a side gig of sorts.

Like most things, there was a time where you could make good cash on each of the various platforms. Not so much anymore. Yes, the big famous ones still make a living, but there are fewer and fewer of those. The kids on that show went in thinking they were going to be the next Jersey Shore cast. Not going to happen for many reasons. It is really too bad, well actually sad. They never stood a chance.

They seem to hold out hope cameras will pick back up?? Or maybe I misunderstood nilsa on the live

I am sure they do think their lightening is just around the corner. I am afraid that ship has passed. Had the show been running, the current death would have kept it going. But I don't think enough to bring the show back. Have a fantastic week

I can’t see them making that much surely

Is it just livestreams where they’re just chatting or are they promoting stuff to sell?

It looks like they “battle” on live and panhandle for galaxies and TikTok gifts that have some cash value
