“If this is what I’m telling you, can you imagine what’s being left out?”

I’m an innately nosey and chronically online celebrity and pop culture journalist, with my specialist areas including deep-diving lyrics and calling out Terrible Men™.

This article mentions allegations of sexual assault, racism, violence, animal cruelty, and other sensitive topics. 

“Usually this is stuff I can ignore but don't demean sufferers, don't twist my words, back the fuck up bros. I told a story about being a weird 7 year old. I bet you have some too, old men, that I'd rather not hear. And yes, this is a rage spiral,” she continued. “Sometimes I get so mad I burn right up. Also I wish my sister wasn't laughing so hard.”

“I mounted every defense I could: I took to Twitter to cry smear campaign, male bullshit, to say YOU’re the creepy ones for even thinking this,” Lena wrote. “And while I do believe there were people who were genuinely agitated by the phrasing and what it evoked for them, who felt betrayed by the words — and to them, I am sorry — I believe there were many more who saw the chance to eradicate someone who had heretofore been only a nuisance to them, whose picture they didn't care to scroll past, a person they deemed unworthy of her accomplishments and her adulation, who was taking their chances and their cash in the zero-sum game of life.”

Chloe, now 37, shared the story in a video for Vanity Fair in April 2026, clarifying that she was 16 years old at the time and arguing that it was “a different time.” For reference, “pantsing” is the act of pulling down someone’s pants and sometimes underwear in public.

“He wasn’t wearing underwear, his little ding-a-ling was out,” she went on. “And then these two twins were like: ‘Ollie, I didn’t know you didn’t wear underwear, and then I was fired!”
