The teenager spoke to her followers in a ‘get ready with me’ video which was later reposted by a Fankonto and explained how she thinks she looks better in real life than she does in photographs.
In the video, she says that she rarely looks good in pictures, that people often comment on how fat and ugly she is. “It’s like I can see what you mean but just meet me in real life. I feel like I really don’t look like that.”
“I’m on weight loss medication because I’m tired of being fat and looking like a fucking troll in photos,” she continues to say in the video.

Have thyroid problems
The revelation comes nearly a year after Alabama hit back at people who criticized her appearance online, saying she suffered from “a thyroid problem and an autoimmune disease.”
“So that’s one of the main reasons I’m gaining weight,” Alabama said in August 2023. “So it would be greatly appreciated if you guys keep your opinions to yourself. It will take you longer in life.”
Alabama explained that once she regained balance with her health issues, she would lose weight again. Although she emphasized that she had not gained more than “2.5-5 kg”, which is not unusual for girls of any age in any situation.
“Weight fluctuates,” she said. “I don’t want any girls who are young, who see this, who gain weight, to ever think there’s anything wrong with it.”
