Indy Clinton has broken her silence after she was accused of being on drugs at the 2025 TikTok awards.
The 28-year-old TikTok star shared a video to social media addressing the rumours after a fan claimed she looked ‘cracked out’ on the red carpet.
‘I don’t usually address things like this but I thought I’m going to stand up for myself because I hate when people spread untrue things about me,’ she said.
‘There is a video going around of me on the red carpet at the TikTok awards because of the way I was acting I guess.
‘I’ll give you some context, I had been working everyday and every night for the last two weeks so I’m extremely tired.’
Indy went on to say she arrived to the awards ‘super late’ and only had five minutes before the red carpet closed.

‘You can hear the photographers fighting with each other because one photographer told me to go to the end. That’s why I look so frantic,’ she explained.
Indy also said she was only able to do two interviews before she was rushed inside.
While on the red carpet, the influencer revealed to Daily Mail the extent of the vicious trolling she has endured all year after her controversial nose job.
The TikTok star said the brutal online comments left her struggling as she juggled motherhood and her booming social media career.
Indy was hit with a wave of cruel remarks after debuting the results of her March rhinoplasty, with trolls comparing her to Michael Jackson and claiming she had ruined her face.
Others accused her of lying about the extent of her surgery.
‘I asked for minor tweaks and I got Cindy Lou? Cindy Who,’ she joked in a recent video, referring to the child character from How The Grinch Stole Christmas.
Indy recently told fans the procedure left her devastated, admitting she had hoped to simply correct damage from a surfing accident in 2020.

Instead, she was left with significant swelling and uneven nostrils that she says attracted relentless negativity online.
‘I know I look crazy, guys. It has only been two weeks,’ she said early in her recovery. ‘I’m still numb but everything will drop slowly. I have a lot of swelling obviously on the outside but also internally which is making my nostrils look uneven.’
The mum of three said the comments became so intense they pushed her to the point of laughing it off.
‘Thanks to your comments, which increase my engagement, you guys are the reason you’re gonna pay for my next nose job,’ she said, confirming she is already planning revision surgery.
‘I’ve kind of come to terms that there is nothing I can do right now. That has been my wild year.’
Indy revealed that behind the viral videos and glamorous content, she has been trying to keep her head above water while facing the avalanche of scrutiny.
‘This year I’ve had a lot of negative feedback and s**t thrown at me,’ she told Daily Mail.
‘Once you get humiliated a few times it really builds resilience. Showing up online is the easy part. Creating content for a community that loves you is easy.’
