Fans of popular YouTuber Eugenia Cooney have expressed concern after a TikTok video she posted on her social media page. The video, which has gained over 16.8 million views since July 21, shows Cooney wearing a full hot pink outfit inspired by the movie “Barbie.” In the caption, Cooney, known for her fashion content on her YouTube channel with over 2.13 million subscribers, wrote, “Hiiii im Barbie.”
However, some fans were alarmed by Cooney’s extremely thin appearance, and they expressed their worries in the comments section. One person wrote, “Wishing you health and happiness,” while another said, “Wishing you good health hun; hope you’re able to feel strong and healthy… your energy is beautiful.”
The video was reposted on Twitter by internet personality Oli London, who noted Cooney’s “worryingly thin figure.” This sparked even more concern from users, with one person saying, “This is extremely concerning. She’s been like this for a long time, and I’m surprised she hasn’t received help yet.”
Another individual, speaking from personal experience, stated, “As a lifelong anorexic currently in recovery, I am horrified that this is being promoted on her social media. This imagery is not healthy for young women to view; it’s very triggering.”
An X user responded to London by saying, “I am surprised she has the energy to stand, let alone walk. I hope she finds peace and help for her anorexia.” Another user added, “She is literally knocking on death’s door. This is exceptionally sad.”
The Post reached out to Cooney for comment. In 2019, Cooney appeared in a documentary on YouTuber Shane Dawson’s channel, where she discussed her eating disorder and her time in rehab. Cooney has faced concerns about her health and appearance in the past, with fans starting a now-deleted petition in 2016 calling for her to be banned from YouTube due to her thinness being triggering to her fan base.
In an interview with PAPER Magazine in 2019, Cooney emphasized that she never intended to harm anyone or promote weight loss. She expressed a desire for the internet to be more positive and understanding, especially towards those battling eating disorders or mental illnesses.
It is important for Cooney to prioritize her health and well-being. Fans and viewers hope that she receives the help and support she needs during her journey to recovery.
