Fashion Reacts To TikTok’s 12-Hour Vanishing Act—And Whiplash Return!

Well, that didn’t last long! TikTok’s promised US ban took effect at midnight on January 19, only to return a mere 12 hours later—talk about whiplash! Shortly before the app’s shutdown, content creators including Vienna Skye, Jules Wettreich, Jake Fleming, Taylor Quitara, Ashley Ballard, Yana Bononi, and more shared Instagram Stories and Reels clips mourning the platform’s closure—and spotlighting its impact on their careers. However, it’s anyone’s guess how influencers will re-enter TikTok after its divisive return, which the app credited to president-elect Donald Trump—which quickly garnered scrutiny from top editors, writers, influencers, and more.

Heidi Montag’s Superficial Album Returns—And Becomes A Hit Record!

Stilettos and fishnets, if that’s what you like! The Hills star Heidi Montag‘s album Superficial shot to #1 on iTunes this week just under 15 years after its original 2010 release, according to Billboard. After Montag and husband Spencer Pratt lost their home in the devastating Palisades wildfires, Pratt took to TikTok and Instagram to encourage fans to buy and stream the album so their family could receive income. Now, the record’s been revived with over 6,000 sales and a 740.6% increase in streaming! In the days since, the couple have received waves of support, and were even welcomed into Avril Lavigne’s home while they regroup. Despite the tragedy, they’re keeping busy; Montag’s dropped several new songs, as well as a slick “I’ll Do It” music video featuring looks by Namilia and more indie brands. Plus, there’s rumors she’ll appear at New York Fashion Week next month—and we can definitely imagine Montag (and “I’ll Do It”) as a perfect fit for The Blonds‘ upcoming NYFW show, among others.
