Chicago rapper CupcakKe has been criticised for social media posts about her month on a water fast. It’s tech gurus who led the way in this irresponsibility
CupcakKe is a 22-year-old
Chicago rapper famous for highly explicit sex-positive songs, including one about SpongeBob SquarePants. She has also been upfront about her various mental health issues. In September, CupcakKe (née Elizabeth Harris) abruptly announced she was retiring from
music in an
Instagram Live stream in which she said she was worried about “corrupting the youth” and that the music industry would never accept her because of her size.
After a hiatus from social media, CupcakKe reappeared last week. “Jesus fasted for 40 days & so did I …” she posted on Twitter. She followed this a couple of days later with a picture of herself and the caption: “Water fast for past month & here’s my results.”
